Beneficence: The practice of doing good; active goodness, kindness, or charity; bounty springing from purity and goodness.
Just a quick note about beneficence…
I am personally practicing beneficence this week. I don’t know that I’d say this bounty springs from purity or goodness, but it was a logical extension of my interests. A reader of this blog asked me if I’d care to create a “Quilt Room In A Bag” for a quilter who had lost everything due to Katrina or Rita. You all know that quilting is dear to my heart, so how could I refuse? I’ll blog more about it tomorrow, in case any of you would like to participate in this activity. I’ve asked my quilting bee if they would care to contribute items, and I hope that we are able to put together several bags. I personally think it’s a cool idea!

Preparations
I was getting ready to make a trip last weekend, and took the time to send Cop Car a note. I told her about all the things I wanted to get done before we left. I had cleaning and laundry to do, and some bookkeeping for the company. I wanted to water the container garden and feed the birds and pack the car. It was important to me that the house be clean when I left, so that I wouldn’t come home after a great weekend and feel that I had to clean.
You’ll have to ask Cop Car to tell you about the all the cleaning she did the day before her oldest daughter was born. We must think alike, because coming home to a clean house is high on our list of preferences.
