My Tumby Points! - Flashback February 9, 2011

I swear that when I make a decision to help someone even if I think it is going to hurt, it never hurts. On the contrary, things go better. I can not count the times I have decided to sacrifice a little to help someone out and it NEVER ends up being a sacrifice. . . often times it has been with monetary things. . . buying food for someone when they are going through a hardship, helping someone raise money through furniture sales and splitting profits, etc - never a sacrifice, ever.

Most recently I decided that I was going to do whatever I could to help Ilana get through this cancer trial and if that meant letting my grades got a bit, so be it. My teacher made a point at the beginning of the semester that if she missed marking a question wrong on our test to keep our mouth shut and not be stupid. Well she handed me my test back today and she missed marking not 1, but 3 questions wrong, so I got a 94 instead of the deserved 88. And a 94 was the highest grade in the class and she feels like someone should get a 100, so she's curving it. 100%. I'm calling them my Tumby points. (Tumby is Ilana's nickname). I am truly honored to NOT be sacrificing at all to be with Ilana every chance I get!!
