It's my birthday. I am not much for the hoopla. This morning started out bad and went downhill from there.
I was woken from a dead sleep about 8ish with the house shaking and a loud sound. It felt and sounded as if it came from the walls/roof surrounding my bedroom. Man felt it and heard it too. He went out and did a full walk around and found NOTHING. No feathers, fur or blood anywhere. With that much sound, if a living thing hit the house, one would think there would be evidence?? We can find NONE.
We did see 2 or 3 turkey vultures ON the roof on that end of the house several hours later.

After that rude awakening, hoping for a quieter day, it went downhill more. I'll save you from that ranting, but, it got so bad around here that Man actually turned on some house hunting show before I shot out the television. Actually, I would have had to toss a rock through it, as we don't own guns.
And, the BD wishes started on Facebook, bless my friends and thank you.

And, then, I issued the challenge.
Here is what I want for my birthday.
I want for you to take the energy and the time spent wishing me a happy birthday to go do or say something wonderful to someone who is in desperate need.
My problems are all first world ones, and my birthday is just a day to me.
GO BE GOOD TO SOMEONE IN NEED.
THAT is how you can wish me a happy birthday!
A few minutes later, while getting ready to go out for my BD lunch, I had this moment, and this is what I did, I accepted my own challenge. Blessings to Children With Hair Loss.
Her comb is 6 inches long, so I donated about 10? Give or take. Children With Hair Loss need 8 inches minimum.
And, that is how you turn a bad day into a day of giving. Lemons to Lemonade.

So hmmmm. I missed your birthday yesterday, BUT I can say happy belated birthday. :-)
I am trying to grow my hair out to donate, but I am not sure I am ever going to get it that long.
Great project and promotion.
Thanks Fran, appreciate it.
I figure it takes me, on average, 2 years to grow it out enough for the next donation. It usually goes a bit longer.
