I had a really good day today.

My boss gave me $300 worth of grocery gift cards as part of my Christmas bonus. I went and filled up on all the treats and extras I'll need over Christmas. Mosha gets a month supply of soft food and some liverwurst sausage, her favorite.

While I was checking out I spoke about it with the cashier, and she mentioned how lucky I was to get a bonus. No Christmas bonus at the grocery store. My total bill came to just under $250, so I left the remaining $50 gift card for her. The look on her face was all the thanks I needed πŸ₯Ή

It was a good chance to reflect on how good I have it, and make a stranger's day. Do something nice for a stranger this Christmas, it's worth it πŸŽ„

That is a great bonus. I'm so glad you were able to spread some joy.

Me as well. The timing was perfect. I was a little down today, and I needed a reminder of how good I have it. A great opportunity to share some cheer πŸŽ„

Meanwhile my employer gave me a $125 Amazon gift card and I'm about to try and see if it's a valid payment method on RoboSats or HodlHodl...

My GM just texted me asking if I could come in an hour early tomorrow.

For several years on Christmas Eve we would have dinner at a low end restaurant which had a waitstaff (Denny’s, Wafflehouse, etc.) and leave a large tip. I’ll never forget the year the server ran after me and hugged me as we were leaving because she was going to be able to rent a car to visit her kids in Ohio. It really is more blessed to give than receive.

That was awesome πŸ‘

Good job!

Awe!! This is so heartwarming!! πŸ₯°
