Another "chilling" moment


I had yet another of those moments with my new special ed program. We are planning a soup/chili supper fund raiser. I was talking to Mary who volunteers with my students doing some cooking, she also runs the school's resale shop across the street. I told her I would like to have a basket to raffle off for the event. She told me she would work on that. About 10 minutes after she left to go back across the street, here she comes with a beautifully filled basket of gardening goodies. Now, Mary is good but even Mary couldn't pull that together in 10 minutes. The "chilling" story unfolded. Mary went back across the street, a woman came into the resale shop with this basket she had won and wondered if she could donate it! The woman was a stranger and wished to remain annoymous. Hmmmmm......it gave us goosebumps!
