“The city is melting away.” Promising words coming from anyone besides a fire chief, right? I’m keeping the windows open to hear the pit pat of snow melting off roofs, and my rain boots are a necessity for navigating the puddles that are here there and everywhere. The melting makes everything feel clean and fresh and hopeful.
For some reason, my thoughts crossed and I realized that firemen probably aren’t too keen on the word ‘melt.’ And then, what do you know, I remembered that my friends at the fire station needed new pillowcases.
The last time I was there, they told me that they don’t have a budget for linens, and that the 21 pillowcases inside the station are older than me. A call to action or a simple statement? For me, it inspired a random act of happiness — pillowcases for Station 8.
how fun!!! you are such a generous gal!! 🙂
how heavy was that suit?!
What a sweet thing to do! 🙂 And how inspiring to see “melting” as a sign of spring. I’m excited to wear my rainboots now.
Wow, I would never of even thought about that being an issue! What a great way to help out people! Makes me want to find out if our fire stations have the same problem!

How very sweet and generous of you! Such a thoughtful way to give back 🙂 Isn’t the sound of snow melting lovely?
how sweet of you! and you are a natural in that fire suit!
That’s awesome!
What a great idea!! You would think maybe they would start bringing their own pillows to work, if they were that old and gross…? But now they don’t have to worry about that! 🙂
You know, it’s one thing to actually buy the new linens and pillowcases for your local firemen. It is money, after all. But, what is even more admirable in my eyes is that after all the time that has gone by (I remember your last post almost a year ago) you thought to remember that they were needed. It shows just how kind and thoughtful a person you can be, inspiring indeed 😉
That is such a good idea! And you look adorable in the fire suit. Was it really heavy?
Gosh you are just an angel! We are all lucky to have you xo
Blesssss your soul!!! Old linens skeeeeve me out, so thank goodness for your act of kindness! Now it’s time to BURN those skin filled sheets…eww..haha.
Go you! Thanks for taking action on something that could be all to easily dismissed and forgotten!
How nice to remember a comment like that and do something about it! 🙂
Love it! There’s nothing like a brand new pillow case to make your day brighter! It’s always nice to friends with the firemen! 😉
Love it! What a great gesture.
