charity...

several weeks ago my boss,

tl givens,

said to me:

"now, dani, if there's a good

charity that you know of or hear about,

let me know.

i like supporting good causes."

me:

"really?"

tl:

"yeah, really."

me:

"well, there is a golf outing coming up...

it's for childhood cancer awareness.

did you know september is 

childhood cancer awareness month?"

tl:

"well, no..."

me:

"yeah, it is, 
and that's what the scramble is for.

do you remember lane goodwin,

the young, local boy who died of cancer 

last fall?"

tl:

"yeah, i remember."

me:

"well, his story was and is

very near and dear to my heart.

would you want to get

a foursome together 

and go play golf on friday?"

i looked up from what i was doing

to find tl already googling

lane goodwin.

tl:

"well, i see links for his story...

a prayer facebook page

and a twitter page;

but, i don't see anything

about a scramble."

i told him where to find

the list of lane goodwin events.

tl:

"oh, here it is."

within just a few minutes,

he put together our team and

printed out our tickets.

me:

now all we need are matching shirts?

(i grinned. #gohardorgohome)

tl:

well, yeah!

i'll call and see if i can get

them by friday.

and this, 
friends,
is the kind of boss for whom we all
should work! 

love and God's blessings, dani xxx
