Day 28 - Almost forgot to post
I was wondering where you were!
Really! You do not need to do that! I was being entertained the entire time…🌹❤️🌹❤️I am speechless…
What a heartwarming story Vicman, thank you for sharing.
Day 29It's kind of difficult to narrow down the free items I've received thus far. From the "give a penny, take a penny" tray at the mini mart, to lunch tickets at my high school, to my master's degree and more. Though, in hindsight the master's helped me quite a bit, allowing me to understand more within my field and ultimately earn more as a teacher. I was at a teaching conference hosted by my district, when I overheard the clerk stating to the teacher across from me that her reimbursement check is ready and that she only needs her transcript for proof of finishing the coursework.I'm thinking what is this about? So I waited a couple of minutes, located the clerk and told her I was in classes at the university. She told me I was in luck because the district had excess money and was paying for anyone who was willing to put in the work, their master's would be 100% reimbursed. Wow, sign me up.
Thank you Vicman! LoopCutter, I have your Leap ready to go out in today's mail. I sure do apologize, but I had to gift you a brand new one. I tossed and turned all night thinking my challenge Leap wouldn't be at my side any longer. I sure hope that is okay by you. Here's yours before packaging for transit.
~Tomorrow's optional mini-challenge is to post your LEAP and tell a story about receiving something free, (not something from me). ~
LC, I have your new one in the mailbox awaiting pick up. I really want you to have one, it's just that I got attached to the one I used in the challenge, sentimental reasons and all. I hope you enjoy it, and thank you for following along and even participating in some of the mini-challenges.
As I feel part of the team. My RED LEAP, (maybe☺️) [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] I have been blessed by many surprising gifts during my lifetime. Some special ones were from my dear bride during our marriage, from my grandkids, gifts totally from the heart, and others when least expected. My most recent totally unexpected gift was received from our fellow member, SteveC. I acquired a OG SuperTool just a couple weeks ago. Steve asked about a sheath, said I would use a mole or old box sheath from my ST300. A week later I received [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] (Minus the tool)A GRAND GESTURE!
This is my DAY 29 optional post for the Mini Challenge to post yourLEAP and tell a story about receiving something free I lived in my first apartment for 32 years. It was a furnished 'apartment. I lived in the upstairs apartment and my landlord lived downstairs.My landlord had been married to his wife over 50 years when she passed on and his 2 sons and daughter all lived in other cities, so I made a point to visit with my landlord for an hour every night after I got off work since he had no family in town.He would occasionally invite me for dinner or a snack.When my landlord passed on his family gave me all the furniture in my apartment in appreciation for the years I had spent visiting their dad after his wife passed on.That saved me a lot of money that I would have had to spend on furniture. The dressers are all solid wood and very well made.I still have all that furniture to this day which means I have now had it for 46 years counting from the time I first moved into the apartment.I really appreciated their kindness.
You're the kind of person I like to be around. Thanks for sharing.Craig

Thank you VICMAN and to everyone. It’s been a great challenge! FoBe definitely knows how to keep it fun and exciting, I hope we get dozens and dozens on the next one, this kind of challenge needs a lot more people!
That’s truly special, thank you for sharing.
Oh wow! That’s an incredible story.
Day 29 - Mission Accomplished I have deeply missed my normal EDC, but like I said in the beginning… once every four years, I think I can a month long Leap challenge. Thank you for everyone participating and following along. Huge thanks to FoBe for setting this one up and keeping it fun as I mentioned in my previous post.Best wishes to all.
