You can do anything you want to today, so why not show someone you love them!!

Today was busy and so was yesterday as it involved all the neighbors to show one sweet and lovely 92 year old lady among us who lives across the street how much she is appreciated and loved. Last month she fell and fractured her wrist and broke her hip and needed surgery. She's been home now for almost 2 weeks and the other day she was sitting out on her porch with her daughter who is staying with her while she recovers. As I looked over at her and waved and said "Hi" I was struck with an… Continue

I went to the doctor and after I left the office, I wheeled down to the supermarket to buy some fresh veggies and brown rice for stir fry later. When I went past the bakery I spied two lonely bagels just sitting there on the shelf waiting for someone like me to stop and smell the aroma of fresh baked bread that can melt even the hardest heart that is determined to lose a few pounds.

There's a saying that goes, "Never trust a person that says, 'Trust me'." In this case though, you can trust me when I say I am giving even though I don't post them daily.

As I'm starting a new round, I can remember when I finished round 1 and I was ready to say good-bye. Then Sharon and Peter stopped me in my tracks and here I am on round 4. This is so amazing when I think of where I was when I started this challenge (and there are days when it is) and where I am now. I am rich for joining and even richer for staying on. Now, I can't imagine not having this second home to visit as often as I do. My give today is to me by staying on this challenge to see how far… Continue

This is a special time of year as the month of February comes to a close and March, marches in on us. Where is the time going, I ask? These two days (today and tomorrow) will be spent celebrating my marriage of 17 years which is a miracle gift from God. We were married on February 29th and last year we had a leap year but that was when I was living alone while my husband was on a solo mission trying to find himself. Since he has been back it has been a very trying time for each of us… Continue
