52 Weeks of Kindness

Ah Friday, welcome my old friend, welcome!

This week for my random act of kindness I left a Starbucks gift card for our mailman.  The poor man has to come to our porch day after day, and every day he hears my crazy dog on the other side of the door going absolutely insane.  Then she runs out to the back yard and barks at him as he walks by the fence.

I cannot get that dog to not attack the door for any sort of delivery person - mail, UPS, or FedEx.  She hates them all.  I know she is just being protective of her turf, but really?  She will sit up and growl if the UPS truck just drives by the house.  How on earth can she hear the difference between the other trucks?

Maybe next week I should bake him cookies too.  Don't forget to check out the other great acts of kindness @ 52 Weeks today.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

  1. Aww! That was nice of you! My dog does the same thing!! He's extra crazy about it lately because not long ago we had a box FOR HIM come full of toys and treats so now I think he just assumes everyone that is here is here to either kill us all or bring him goods! Crazy dogs!
