Hi BbqDad Here and I am totally humbled.
I received a large donation from a loyal VIP supporter today. Actually, the donation appeared in my PayPal.Me/BbqDad account a week ago. The purpose of the gift was to buy a new iPad/Pro and internet cable modem with service for one year.
I still can’t believe it.
I live in a senior housing apartment and did not have cable or internet nor a computer. I have been using a computer that is in the Senior center library for the past two months to write my blog posts and do research. I have written a post every day for a total of 68 posts all from the library.
There are times I wake-up in the middle of the night and get dressed, get coffee and go to the library computer, so I have access when no one else is using it. I have been happy doing my writing in this fashion.
I put the goal to save money towards buying a iPad and internet on my VIP site and lo and behold someone asked me if they could give me a grant for the purchase.
Well of course I said yes!
My VIP site uses Buy Me a Coffee as a way to accept tips for work that I do and special zoom sessions for giving peer support and meditation exercises.
I personally thanked this individual, well it was actually a couple over a zoom session.
Now, I can get up in my PJ’s and type away without having to go to the library. I also can now blog during the day when the library computer is being used by someone else. Now I have my own.
More great content to come!
