days 22 and 23 and counting...
Day 22-the gives just fell into my lap. I made a quick stop by the bookstore on my way to meet a friend for lunch. When I was checking out the employee-who always has a smile in her heart-asked if I would like to donate a book for children to receive for Christmas. As it turns out the two books I grabbed (Dr. Suess) were buy 2 get the 3rd free. So, I actually donated 3 books instead of 1 which then turned into me receiving a discount on my purchase because I had met the 'special' amount to claim… Continue

Days 20 and 21
Yesterday was day 20 and I truly can't believe how fast this challenge goes flying by. Yesterday was a rather slow day aroung the house but I can say that I was still able to give. For me it was a huge give because I decided to bite my tongue in dealing with a situation with my ex-husband. A situation that was right out of the textbook of our marriage and one of the many reasons we are no longer married. I wanted so desprately to speak to him about some of his actions that were effecting our chi… Continue

Day 18 and 19
Friday November 13th (?) ended on a great note. I had gone to the grocery store to grab a few things for the weekend and I ended up having a pleasant conversation with the volunteer from the Salvation Army. I took my last few dollars for the week out of my wallet and placed them in the ever familiar red bucket. Its so uplifting to see how a simple act of a kindness adds a lighter step not only in my personal stride but a little more jolly in the volunteers ringing of his bell.
