I'm so glad you took the time to help the elderly man. Such a meaningful gift to him and his wife! You truly did rescue him from something that could have been harmful if he wandered too far away. I hear those heart-breaking stories on the news too…
Dawn I love your quilts, they are georgous, the one with the sun was my favorite. Do you sell them? Do you take special orders? That was thoughtful, some family will have xmas dinner because of your contribution.
Gloria in Austin!
I find baked gift and gifts baskets make nice personal gifts cause the person knows you made it just for them and with love. Nice!
Yes Deb I agree we give freely and it is with joy!
Wow where dose the time go? I am sitting here listening to Sarah McLaughlin, love her music! I was just thinking that I really need to give more to Tom, I am so busy everyone else that I have been ignoring my man, my lover and my best friend. Wow ho…

Profile Information
- Why I'm choosing to give:
- I choose to give because it expresses the love I have for my fellowman, it expresses what is in my heart and my gratitude.
- What I'd most like to receive:
- a smile, that warm feeling you get when you have brought some light into someone else life by giving things like a homemade afghan to a telephone call to say "I am thinking about you".
- How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
- Connie from the Nake Food Cafe
- About me:
- I am a nurse who took an early retirement due to lupus and chronic pelvic pain. I dedicate a large amount of my time to working with other woman who have chronic pelvic pain. I love cotton, fleece, flip flops, and taking care of my body and mind on a daily basis. I write, crochet, sew, and spend time with Tom, my life partner. I have two young adult children, my son is a plumber and my daughter is a student of Mass Art institute.

Day 3 of 29/ 2nd give
Hello Friends:
I hope this post finds you all in good spirits and pain free.
Yesterday was not one of my better days so I really had to dig deep to be able to do any giving at all.
My giving consisted of calling a friend to let her know that I was thinking of her. I sent a few emails to let a few clients know that I had not heard from them and I was thinking about them.
I wrote a post on getting to know your Pelvis for the members of my site.
I finished a crochet gift for my daughter.
Ok y… Continue

Dawn said… - thanks for the compliment on my quilts. i have never sold one, wouldn't even know how to charge for one. i'm not opposed to it, just never have. i make them for my family and i made the balloon one for Operation Teddy Bear Care. i used to live in Austin back in the 80's. i imagine it's changed a lot since then. Hugs, Dawn

Gabrielle,
I am a high school teacher and my experience is that there are very few 17 year old girls out there that are as wise and mature as you. I wish I had the insight you have when I was your age --shoot, when I was 27! It takes most women so l…
