but it did involve being sneaky
and stressed me out enough that I broke into
the box of liquor chocolates I had bought my Nana for Christmas.
what could have possibly caused this stress on Christmas Day?
an anonymous random act of kindness neighbour Christmas gift.
making the gifts didn't stress me out,
they were actually quite enjoyable to put together,
it was the sneaking up to the doors of my neighbours at 1am
placing them on their door knobs
so they would be greeted with a Christmas treat in the morning.
I am not sure what I thought was going to happen
that had me popping the little chocolate liquor bottles
but I felt like a huge trespasser and that any minute
the neighborhood watch would call 911 and I would
be sitting in the slammer Christmas day or the door was going to
fly open and the person would demand to know what I was doing.
Of course, all was well,
no arrests, no confrontations.
I feel confident that being a burglar is never in my future though,
the stress of doing nothing wrong was killing me, I can't
even imaging what it would do to me if I was doing something ilegal.
I dropped off 12 gifts to randomly picked homes
(I did go with homes that had lights on and Christmas decorations)
over a 3 block area.
By late afternoon, they majority were removed from the doorknobs
and I can only hope they enjoyed their mysterious surprise.
