Yes, AmySue--Whale Wars, thanks.
Sarah, You're so blessed!
That looks really cool--I think I'll join. Thanks.
How did you find the forgotten soldiers? That sounds neat.
You don't have to give it away...but it sounds like synchronicity...I'm so sorry for your loss...but the machine will bring joy to a new family now. Best wishes in your decision.
Gosh, AmySue, that would (and does) break my heart, too. I don't know if I could've watched it. I'm familiar with the issue from that tv series about the boat that goes out to try to stop it...can't remember the name... That's a great gift from yo...
That's beautiful, Torrie.
I like your gifts. I am looking for more simple, non-monetary gifts and ways to connect with those around me. Yours are inspiring. Thanks. :-)
I'm very curious what color moonbeam is as well! I Googled it and it came up as similar to beige! :-)

The book 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving Can Change Your Life - authored by 29 Gifts founder Cami Walker is now in stores. You can also buy through Amazon.
Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!
Happy giving!
P.S. Don't miss our handy 29-Day Giving Calendar or our cute Gift Note to accompany your gifts.

So, kind of a slow week. It feels a little like cheating, but my gifts for Wed and Thurs were comments and acknowledgment of things that my husband and coworkers do/have done. My husband is.... not overly motivated when it comes to helping with ho...
Have you ever tried to buy a simple fedex t-shirt? Why would you, right?
Well, one of my sister's friends from Romania wanted one because his nickname is Fedex. If you want to know why, you have to take me out for coffee...it's a funny story that...
It seemed appropriate on the day after Thanksgiving, a day dedicated to giving thanks and eating, to donate to a charity that is committed to feeding hungry children. So my first day of giving was a donation to the 'We've Got Your Back' backpack p...
I give to charity as much as possible. Animals, Cancer Walks, Easter Seals whatever I can. This seemed to grab my attention because this isn't something I can just write a check or charge on my credit card, this is something I need to stop and thi...
Very nice suggestions, Dawn! Bravo!
I'm normally not a Black Friday shopper, but during my Thanksgiving visit with my Mom yesterday, she mentioned several things that she needs. So, today I was on a mission. I found a nightgown that was just what she wanted, but they didn't have her...
My mom and I were running errands today. We stopped by our friend at work just to say hi. I think she enjoyed the company and that we were thinking of her!
Beautiful.
Great gift to your girls! They'll be able to carry on your family Thanksgiving traditions!
It seems appropriate to start a cycle of giving the day after a holiday dedicated to giving thanks.
I read the article about 29 gifts in Body & Soul magazine over a month ago, and thought, "what a cool thing. I should do that." Then something shi...
While doing something nice for others, you are also doing an even more wonderful thing for yourself. Life IS good!
Thank you, Deb. I hope to get my hip x-rayed tomorrow - it has been unbearably painful for about 2 1/2 months. Once I get the x-rays, the next step is probably PT.
