What Did You Do For Someone Else Today?

I helped our secretary to get some stuff out of a shelf. She's soo tiny and our stuff is on the highest board.

I picked my son up from school, instead of him taking a bus. He needed to meet with a teacher and get something signed. He wasn't sure he'd make the bus. Kind of last minute. I don't mind. I wasn't busy.

Put a note through my neighbours door, as when her Mum was visiting earlier, she told me that her disabled daughter wasn't feeling so good.

So I said in the note that if she wanted anything from the shops, to give me phone, she phoned to say she was OK, but thanked my anyway, which was nice.

I don't normally interact with the neighbours, or indeed with anybody these days?

Stayed at my best friend's side while she began to sort out old stuff.

Began to translate a manga from Japanese to German for a friend. She has all volumes but they stopped the release one volume before the last and that was only available in Japanese. ...will take some time but I will do my best. :D

I made a much overdue amend today. Back on the right track thankful for this one.

I sent my grandmother's recipe to my son for a cookie/candy that he loved as a child...just as he was talking about it to his wife! It was in my Grandmother's own hand and the aging piece of paper photographed well.

@Recovery4Me : Grandmother's cookies are always the best. :hungry:

I lent a colleague money because she forgot to bring some money to the cafeteria. :coffee:

I admitted to my son's therapist that I had PTSD and needed her help to teach me how to facilitate my son feeling heard in a "normal" fashion. I offered that as soon as I get my relationship established with my own therapist that I was willing to offer my T's name, number for conference calls to better assist my son in his healing. I admitted my stress levels & symptoms clouded normal social cuing and that in order to be a better Mom, I needed to learn.

In all honesty... I love him and that is why. Otherwise...I am not too worried about normal functionality. I just need to learn to be a better supporter in his secondary PTSD, you know? I suppose it is for me as well but the internal driver is for him.

I baked a cake for my best friend because she had to go to a party today and totally forgot about having promised to bring a cake. :confused::p

I gave to my roommate (who had his jelly pilfered by the other roommates) a nice little homemade jar of strawberry jelly from my breakfast with son.

I made one son a sandwich. For the other son I bought him a new lofty mattress pad. His bed is so old. Hopefully this will make it more comfortable until we can afford a new mattress.
