MISSION: Wonderfulness in Wisconsin

I have a confession to make. Wisconsin and I have a pretty rocky past. I lived there for a couple of years after I graduated college, and, well, it didn’t go so well. I went through three major job disappointments, debilitating loneliness, and a very {VERY} painful breakup.  Needless to say, I get a little bit of PTSD when I hear or think about Wisconsin.

BUT!

Affiliated Agent C’s mission of kindness has shown me that I don’t have any reason to be sad about Wisconsin anymore. There is love and kindness there. Most certainly.  And that will help heal my heart. Even from afar.

I finished my first mission yesterday! It was very exciting! I work at UW-Milwaukee and with Wisconsin’s budget issues, winter, exams, tough deadlines, etc… I thought one of our students, faculty or staff could use a little pick me up. I found the most adorable card and added the following message (if you can’t read it in the photo):

Dear Wonderful You!

Just wanted to remind you that you are so brilliant and talented and that you rock! Hope you have a wonderful day and enjoy my little gifts of kindness for you.

Included is a journal (so that you can write about all of your amazing adventures and share your creative thoughts), some Bandit-Os (I think they are fun) and some super yummy lip gloss (it was a three pack but I gave the other two away)!

Cheers!

Secret Agent C

I also included your card and the list of items from the bag. I was so worried about someone thinking the lip gloss wasn’t good because it wasn’t in the original package.

I put my present into a grocery bag and went to the bathroom in Enderis. Two people were in there. They must have thought I was quite odd with a gigantic Grocery bag in the stall with me. I originally placed the gift bag on the toilet paper dispenser but that creeped me out a little so I move it to on the counter by the sink.

I checked this morning and it was gone! I hope whoever got it enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed giving it.

I have purchased 20 more items and will be making up more presents to distribute. Very addictive!

Thanks!

THANK YOU, Affiliated Agent C! As someone who works at a university, I can tell you that any student, faculty or staff member would have been THRILLED to get your gift of kindness. Well done!  And, boy! Do I wish I’d come across that card when *I* lived in Wisconsin.  I could have used that fairy godmother with her magical wand and combat boots!
