Many years ago, when my then-teenaged sister had her first job, she was super-excited to go Christmas shopping with her own money for the first time. I took her to the mall and when we got inside she realized with horror that she had left her wallet sitting on top of my car. We raced back out but it was gone, of course. She was devastated, but tearfully refused my offer of loan. The next day I took fifteen $20 bills, put them in a card, had a co-worker sign it from Secret Santa (she would recognise my handwriting), and mail it from his own town so that she wouldn't see a familiar postmark. She was astonished when it arrived, and accused me of the deed...which I vehemently denied. That was an awesome, magical Christmas and after 40 years she still doesn't know...and she never will!
"I live in a village that is like 80% old people meaning they can’t walk up to the church and see their loved ones graves very often. Once a month I go into the graveyard and clean all the graves and make sure they have fresh flowers on them and they look nice. I got caught once by an elderly lady who has since died – I take extra time on hers because she was just so sweet."
