Updated personal blog with more give-a-ways today, and I have received gifts.
I just added two more give-a-ways today on my personal blog. My following is growing and I am able to spread the gifts around a bit more and it feels great!
If you are interested in getting a gift from me of a handmade item, stop on by.
And since I don't get here too often thought i would mention some of the gifts I have received in return lately.
# My lower denture broke and my oldest Sister paid to have it fixed.

Giving of Birds Nest.
I don't have a picture yet, but I have been making some birds nest for rescued wildlife baby birds, rabbits, and other small creatures. I will try to get a picture up soon. There are two rescue agencies that Iw ill be sending them to next week. One in NJ and the other in VA and they both sounded very happy to be getting them as this is about the time they started getting baby animals in.

Wishing more would stop by my blogspot blog
I am having a bit of trouble in the giving department. Not that I don't want to....but that the manner in which I am doing it, isn't working the best at the moment. I have decided to do it via my blogspot blog: http://prpldy15.blogspot.com/ and I am not getting the visitors that I had hoped for.
The reason i decided to do it this way is because I don't get out much and figured this would be the best way for me to give to others.
So if you read this and wold like to give to me...then send some… Continue

Hi Erin
I am sorry to hear that. And Yes what if you were to start with letting go the judgement about yourself!
Thanks for your vulnerability in sharing this
Mbali
Mbali, this is such a pertinent post for me right now. I'm struggling with forgiveness and resentments I hold against someone right now. I know, rationally, that it is hurting me far more than it will ever hurt her... I can't let go yet. I'm working…

Happy belated Birthday Kate!! I've missed reading about your gives so I'm happy to hear you will be blogging again. You always have such warm insight. Hugs!
It's great to hear things are moving in a healing direction for you and your mom. I'm excited to hear more about your reading with Mbali. Take good care of YOU and I send you a big virtual hug ;-)
Yeah, I hear you, sister. I'm feeling similarly, in case you have not read my latest post. Cry it out and laugh it out. Stay busy and stay focused on giving. We'll get through this! ;-)
Thursday, Dec. 17 was my 29th day of this giving challenge. I started off giving some extra time to a client. I also gave lots of loving pets to her old dog who does not have much longer to live. My client gave me some delicious protein bar snacks a…
