The Birthday Project

After seeing a facebook friend's post about The Birthday Project I knew I had to do it.  I am so excited to this year for my birthday.  I will be 44 and I am coming up with 44 random acts of kindness.  Right now I have 25 and I need help coming up with other ideas.  I am going to list what I have so far and if you think of any suggestions I would really appreciate it.  Here is my list so far:
Birthday project
1. Get carts
2. Buy some one's coffee
3. Give out bottle water to people outside
4. Make cookies/muffins for fire dept.
5. Write a letter Forgiving someone
6. Take dog food to shelter
7. Pick up trash
8. Send flowers to my mom
9. Collect can foods give to food bank
10. Load groceries for 30 min.
11. Thank the mail carrier
12. Bring a dip & veggie snack to my dentist office
13. Hand out flowers
14. Make cards for assisted living
15. Treats for the librarians
16. Hide dollars in toys at dollar tree
17. Pick up trash
18. Smile and compliment everyone
19. Pass out silly bands to kids
20. Give out stickers to kids
21. Notes with micro popcorn on redboxes
22. Put coins and notes at laundry mat
23. notes and coins at car wash
24. Encouraging note for gym scale

I am hoping this project has an effect on my children.  I want Reese and Sky to start doing this not just everyday but especially on their birthday.
Also, in my search online I have found so many people that have great ideas.  I also saw a guy that did 366 days of kindness.  I think my birthday will kick off my 365 days of kindness project.  I think I will definitely get more out of this than the people I help.

Thanks for your help!!
