Day 9, November 13, 2009
So I spent another day a the house, a little worn out from all I did yesterday. I had plans for an elaborate movie night for our two younger girls, my husband and I as a treat for a long week, but I didn't have a chance to get the things together to make it too elaborate. Instead we just had pizza, popcorn and ice cream together in front of a fun movie with the fire going in the fireplace - a good, relaxing "give" to the whole family, as simple as it was!
I also feel as if I gave the best I can to a long list of people, I spent a good time to day lifting them up in prayer. I feel like that is a gift we can give freely and easily all of the time, if we just take the time to be aware of those who need lifting up or praise for the good in their lives.

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.
