A Friendly Neighbor Shoveled For Me!

Who ever said random acts of kindness were a myth was thankfully mistaken. To my surprise today I was a grateful recipient of an anonymous person's random act of kindness. When I arrived home today, I parked in my garage as usual and came in through the back door of my home. I walked in but still kept my coat on since I knew I would have to go out to shovel my front entrance. I was not looking forward to it, since it is substantially long. Many of my friends already know the lack of fondness I have for my front yard because of all the maintenance it involves. Shoveling I knew would be quite a drag, considering I had to shovel my pathway and front curb-side sidewalk. I took a picture last night as the snow kept falling. You can't really tell how long the walkway is, but trust me it's long!

Before heading out this evening, I took a peek out my window to gauge how much snow I would have to remove and mentally prepare myself. I blinked and squinted my eyes a bit because at mere sight it appeared as my walkway had already been cleaned-up. I grabbed my shovel that I had left in my front foyer last night, and headed out. It WAS TRUE!! Someone, (I still don't know who! Had to be my neighbor.) had shoveled all the snow for me. The front sidewalk, long walkway AND side walkway towards my yard had all been cleared of snow! I have this huge grin now that you can't imagine. I picked up my mail came back in to look through if I received a note from my little helper. No note was found. Whomever it was THANK YOU!!!!
