A Little Work for Big Dividends


--by MammaDeb, posted Mar 4, 2016
I was busy working in my home office when I received a call from my adult daughter.  She needed me to assist her in another part of town to retrieve a free dresser she'd found. Without a second thought,  I stopped working and went to her aide. When I arrived, she and I hefted the dresser into the back of my vehicle, then went to drop it off to her fiance's condo.  My reward?  Her face lit up with a huge smile, and she hugged and thanked me profusely. It only cost me 30 minutes of my time, and it made my daughter's day. ;-)
