My second day of 29 days of giving
I am so thrilled that I am now thinking throughout my day more often about how I can give. I was very excited to share the gift of this site with a good friend of mine and talked to another good friend about it. I gave several small gifts today and focused on doing some of the little things. I focused on my husband more during dinner and he even gave me the gift of the best shrimp on the plate. What a nice suprise!!

My first day of 29 days of giving
I already gave three gifts this morning. I welcomed a co-worker and friend back to work even though I am off for a few days this week and reminded her that my husband was willing to help her out with her computer. I sent a Monday morning text to a few of my friends and family for a great day and a great start to their week. I also ordered a few gifts for my parents to be delivered on thier cruise that they left for yesterday. I can't wait to see where this 29 day journey of gift-giving takes me.

What a great idea Wendy Jo! I've booked marked the site and plan to spend part of my afternoon sending cards -- thanks for cluing me in to a monetary give that is free for me! :-) I'm also a big believer in arts in schools and my mom was a music tea…
Gabrielle, you learned so much today, about yourself and about how life works. Honesty with yourself is the finest gift you can give and to learn that your happiness (or lack) is in your own hands is priceless. Choose happiness and the Universe will…
Elly Rose, What fun to get caught up with you. I have a Mother in laws tongue that is probably 30 yrs old and was a gift from my mother in law. I was lucky too and my Mother in law was very nice to me. Jan. 11th is my birthday, good way to start my…
Oh boy, what a day. This giving challenge has given me, not only an awareness of what I give through the day, or how much other people give, but how much giving brings you into the present. How it forces you to LIVE every day, rather than only being…
This is pretty cool - Fidelity Investments is donating $1 for every FREE holiday e-card you send. This money goes to buy musical instruments for children in public schools. As a big believer in the arts, I think this rocks!! Here is the web link if…
I did several gives today, but only one did I really do mindfully. I really try to be more mindful of what I do througout the day, some days are just easier to stay in 'mindful mode' than others. So . . the one thing that I was truly mindful about w…
