a great give for you and your husband. i love fall too! happy fires!
sounds perfectly intimate. LOVE it. =)
your gives can be anything you decide you want them to be! and, frankly, what better than an unexpected opportunity to share your wisdom with a friend. =) some of the best gives are those you don't plan. don't worry about applying rules to the chall…
it's true ... the more we give, the richer in spirit we become. glad you had the opportunity to help out your friend and your mother. and, it sounds like you received in those giving opportunities as well. =) fantastic....
Do not forget, that behind every great man there is a woman. Men need women in their life to help fulfill their needs for balance. If a man is not taken care of and loved by a woman then he can be no leader. As much as a man is a leader, so are the…
Went out today with my very good friend to meet with a potential person to help train our mentor staff for our non-profit group. We met at Panera bread, and I offered to buy her Hot Chocolate. Would have bought her a brownie too, if she wanted it!

KristinAnna, in my humble opinion people see what they are looking for. If they are looking to be insulted, they will be. If they are looking to see your heartfelt interest in the wonderful diversity that surrounds us, that is what they see. I choos…

Today - Tuesday - Day 9 - Cleaning out the fire place for my husband
Okay - So I have to admitt, I wanted to clean out the fire place a little bit for myself as well as it was more so to please my husband. I LOVE FIRES. So cozy, so warm, so magical to watch. And I especially like sitting with my husband next to the fire. So I cleaned the fire place, then had an inclination to rearrange the room to set it up so my husband and I could sit infront of the fire on the love seat. Today is a beautiful day. Absolutely beautiful. Fall is one of my favorite times of the ye… Continue

Day Eight: A helpful advisor and listening ear
I helped a friend today work out some ideas she had. This gift I gave is one that I did not seek out or pre-think about. This particular friend calls me from time to time for my guidiance, and I love her dearly, and love to help her. Do these 29 days of giving have to be the giving of something tangible or something that is pre-thought of and actually more conscious then subconscious? I feel like I give alot every day in all sorts of ways, and now that I am doing this challenge, I am more and mo… Continue

Day six and seven: Snow suits/Computer Help/GRATEFULLNESS
Halloween night was a wonderful little evening. My son is three, and my good friend has a three old as well. They went together, and this was really the first year they understood everything and it was so darn cute! I was so thankful to have such a wonderful evening. I gave my friend my son's snow suit to borrow, or to keep, it does not truly fit my son anymore. They are going ot Colorado this week for a business trip and needed it!
