Week Forty Nine: Surprise Shoveling a Neighbour’s Entrance While No One’s Home.

Shoveling sucks.

Everyone hates it. It’s the last thing you want to do after seeing 5 feet of snow accumulate on your front porch. Nope – I’ll tell you what you want to do. You want to curl up in a ball in front of a fire or some sort of artificial heat next to your feline friends and only wake up when spring starts to show its dewy and warm face again. I get it.

This is why I thought it would be nice to do one of my neighbours a favour. After a massive snowfall this week, I decided to grab a shovel, go over to my neighbour’s yard and shovel their entrance while they were away. I thought it might be a nice surprise for them to come home to.

Week Eight: Snow Removal from a Neighbour’s Car’s Windshield.

On my way to work the other day, I noticed that there was only one car parked on my street. I also noticed that this said car was covered in a bit of powder from the light snowfall that occurred the night before. I thought a nice gesture to do would be to remove that snow from the windshield and the hood to save the car owner a couple of minutes from their daily routine that morning. After making sure that car was not equipped with an alarm, I wiped down whatever snow I saw on the car. I didn’t leave a note or anything, but I’m hoping that my neighbour was pleasantly surprised by this simple act of kindness.
