O.K. I took a gander at our following list for our blog and no else has signed to follow our blog so can I figure:
No one wants to PIF?
or
No one wants my PIF?
haha
I'm just going to guess that no one wanted to get ahead in the game.? lol
Rules are as follows
1.) You will not know what I'm giving you until you get it. Hey, a smile is giving someone something so don't expect a new house! lol You may or may not like it.
2.) I have 2 weeks to complete my PIF obligations and the person I PIF to has 2 weeks to complete their PIF obligations.
3.) You need to follow us on our blog on blogger (NOT just Facebook)
4.) The first 5 comments on our BLOG will get a PIF from me. (0:
I will contact you today or tomorrow for an address.
See that's not hard is it?
What is a PIF? Anything kind act done for another. It can be helping someone with their kids, mowing a yard, buying food for someone in line, and the list could continue. This PIF does NOT have to be anything that causes you to spend $. If you want to PIF that way, great; if not, great - you be the decision maker on your PIF.
PIF acts do not have to be shared unless you want to for some reason. This is done on the honor system.
O.k. go follow our blog and post a comment on our blog so I can feel better with some PIFs (0;
SMILE and say Hello to someone - you never know.......it might just make their day!

PIF TONIGHT
O.K. so today I feel terrible. No belly aching here as I'm pretty sure it's just allergies. However I thought, I want to feel better but I don't feel like getting up and doing something so what can I do to feel better?
Phil and I have been discussing how we can thank everyone for their prayers, support, encouragement, purchasing of items, & so many nice gestures we've had over our journey. We had already thought that a prize drawing or something would be great, but today I've decided something a little different. It's not a new idea, but new for our blog!
How great do you feel when you do something for someone else for no reason??? The smile and unexpected joy you give to someone? It makes me feel great to see someone happy when I do for them! It's easier for me to give than receive! I've decided that today I'd like to do a Pay It Forward....not one, but 5! There has been so many unexpectedly nice things people have done for us (I'm not adding them all so please don't think I don't appreciate something that isn't listed...we've appreciated every little {which wasn't little to us!} comment in person, writing, text, etc.) These are just a few of the very unexpected things people have done over the last couple weeks (in no order of importance):
-a bag without a name was left at our door steps with goodies in it
-a very sweet person brought us some very yummy food out of the blue
-2 people have handed us a donation check
-a very sweet person offered to get a handout to each U.S. Supreme Court Justice about our cause
I've only included 5 above and that is not even close to the nice things people have done to help us get our cause promoted - some have handed out our fliers in their church, schools, communities, and work. Some have helped to get our shirts sold and then placed big orders. Others have contacted celebs that they know to get t-shirts to them. Some have posted our links to our blog and coffee shop on tweets, their facebook, blogspot, shop fronts, and other places in the webworld. A few people knew they might get some public attention at an event and wore our shirt to help gain more support for us. O.k. I said I wasn't going to go on and on, but the support we have gotten has been phenomenal! We say thank you so much but that doesn't seem enough!
I know most all of us do things for others and never even think about it; however, today I want to start a PIF. Later, I will post all the details on how this will work. I will let you know that you will need to "follow our blog" by email to qualify. See in the right corner, it says "follow by email" - just put in your email, click submit, then confirm your request in your email. If you do that now, you will be a step closer when I post details tonight.
Everyone please re-post this, tweet this, email friends or whatever you can to get people's attention over the next few hours. Everyone likes to get something nice even if it's just a smile to make us feel better! Let's get as many people involved as we can! When others are nice to us, it just makes us feel good! If this goes over well, I'd love to do more things like this over our journey!
Oh and if you love coffee or need special/unique gifts, please don't forget about the special that ends TONIGHT on our coffee site
