Day 29 of My 29-Day Giving Challenge

Posted on June 29, 2008 at 9:00am 0 Comments

Today is the final day in My 29-Day Giving Challenge... and the experience has definitely been a roller coaster of emotions for me.



First off, as I mentioned when I started this challenge... I believe that giving comes rather naturally to me. I am proud to come from a long line of givers.



Having said that... I found this challenge, to be one.



Some days were harder than others... especially since I chose to accept this challenge at a time when my health has been… Continue

Days 22 - 28 of My 29-Day Giving Challenge

Posted on June 29, 2008 at 8:00am 0 Comments

Here's this week's updates from my 29-Day Challenge...



DAY 22 - Today I gave a friend, a small bag of all natural, organic skincare products, that I had purchased for myself, but didn't seem to work for my skin type. There's nothing like a new bag of toiletries to make a girl smile!



DAY 23 - Today I mailed a beading magazine to my beading friend extraordinaire! Isn't it GREAT to get something unexpected in the mail?!?



DAY 24- Today I left a copy of Real Simple… Continue

Here I am again... this time with my updates from week three of my 29-Day Giving Challenge.



DAY 15 (while on vacation)- After quickly researching our spontaneous trip to Columbus, I took Bob to two special places That I was pleasantly surprise to see him loved. The first was brunch at The Northstar Cafe, a delicious, eco-friendly cafe, that tries to use local and organic food, and is located in a fabulous section of Columbus... then off to Mootz Run Tea Shop, which may have been out… Continue

Days 8 - 14 of My 29-Day Giving Challenge

I am still eagerly participating in my 29-Day Giving Challenge.



This week's updates include...



DAY 8 - I gave to very good friends, the gift of food. Since I don't cook, that entailed, a large dark chocolate bar (70%) for L, and a bag of Bear Naked's "Appalachian Trail" mix for J. J (like my husband) is an A.T. "section-hiker", and just completed his last section in New Hampshire, and first at the southern end of Maine. For this reason, I thought the trail mix fitting. Now… Continue

Days 1 - 7 of My Very First Giving Challenge

Posted on June 7, 2008 at 8:30am 0 Comments

Last Sunday, you may remember my acceptance to the 29-Day Giving Challenge. Enclosed here, you'll find an update about my first 7 days of giving.



DAY 1 - I cleaned out my dressers today. I then gave all of the clothes, that either didn't fit,

or I didn't need anymore, to charity. Its a task that I've been meaning to do for some time now... and the thought of giving them to charity, gave me that little extra push I needed to get the job done.



DAY 2 - I called my… Continue
