ROUND 2! COMPLETED!

WOW!

What else can I say. I know I haven't posted much this round, but because of OPERATION TEDDY BEAR CARE , I have focused the majority of my attention on the South African AIDS Orphans. I still give on a daily basis, the giving is amazingly rewarding.

As I have put God first, Others second, and myself last ~ I ALWAYS COME OUT ON TOP! How that happens I dont know. I have received so much in return that I hadn't expected. I guess what I am getting at… Continue

Rnd 2 Day 8

Arggg! Its that time of year again when my body is affected by nature! Unfortunately, because I have so many health issues, the weather change creates havoc for my body! This, being the third year of dealing with all this, gets better each year. Well, the health problems are still there, I just have learned to tolerate them better! So even, as I sit here today sick as a dog, I still managed to get some work done! Today, I gave to Operation Teddy Bear Care. I have been doing some research and suc… Continue

Starting round 2!

The best thing that I have been able to give the past 3 days is my time to my family. I was always the insane one, or so they thought. Anyone who would sell meth and use meth would obviously be considered insane. The twist is, both my mom and my sister said to me last night, "Its really scare when you are the sane one these days!"

So I will enjoy my week with my family and will keep you all posted!

OH SNAP! I almost forgot, I also gave time to create the group… Continue

DING! DING! DING! ROUND 1 OVER WITH!

All day yesterday I kept looking for the little bikini clad ladies to come walk around my apartment and tell me it was over. Ironically, something in my life besides round one was ending. I was ending the new medicine treatment that backfired(I am that .000001% that can get Akathisia from the drug). But my 29 days was amazing!

I met a lot of great new friends. I learned about organization and detail orientation. I learned about how when you say something out loud, "Hey we can get 1000 Teddy Bea… Continue

When I ran across this, I almost cried! My Granny sent this valentine to me-but back then it was a birthday card...when I was in Elementary school I still have it! Now I am sharing it with all my friends here!

Congrats on Day 1! I've recently read quite a bit about KIVA, so I'm looking forward to that being one of my "giftings" in the next 27 days (I'm 2 days in).

So...today is Day 1. I decided to give a favorite something, a nonfat venti, to my least favorite somebody, a former frenemy. We loved our coffee...it was a ritual throughout our friendship. As I dropped the anonymous gift card in the mail box I i...

It was really nice of you to think of your sick co-worker, and to remember how you felt in the same situation. Have fun at the hockey game!

Today is a great day for giving! Through KIVA I just gave a loan to a woman in Peru. She will invest this money in her fish selling business and hopefully, slowly but surely, better her situation. I am convinced these micro-loans are very empoweri...
