Profile Information
- Why I'm choosing to give:
- I'm turning forty Friday March 13th 2009 and I feel very lucky to have a comfortable life now and want to give back to others. I found this site just when I needed some inspiration ... and Cami seems to be sending me the right messages through her blogs, just when I need them.
- What I'd most like to receive:
- The joy of giving without any strings attached. The introspection of being consciously aware of my giving spirit. Finally, learning that it is alright to give to myself!
- How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
- Hope Clark's Newletter
- About me:
- I live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest just south of Seattle in the shadow of amazing Mt. Rainier

Peter said… - Hi Jan,
Are you trying to avoid the gift of germs from your little (and not so little) ones?
Is that really in the spirit of 29Gifts? LOL
