29 Hats

Not only have I joined the 29 gift movement but,as typical, I got others to join in too! I belong to several knitting groups and wanted to knit 29 hats to give away for the holiday season. After making my goal known to my BFF Karen, she decided that she would help in the 29 quest. I had not completed anything in over a year so 29 pcs of anything was quite an undertaking. So, I got knitting, Karen got knitting, she enlisted her daughter Jodi too. Before you knew it I was loaded up with hats!…See More

This is silly but it reminds me of my dog... No matter what he is so happy to see me. Everyone else in the family needs or want something for me. But not my dog -- he is just happy to see me.

Great Give! Maybe your gift will also help her be more open to help from others too!

A Fabulous Day ( Day 10 )

I was having a fabulous day. I work in different locations and today I saw all my favorite people. They had not seen me for a while so they were excited to see me just as happy as I was to see them. I was feeling so appreciated and great that I nearly forgot my purpose for the day. Yes, I was nice to everybody I saw and of course helpful but did not get a chance to really give. I even had a spare gift card at dunkin donuts but nobody came in while I was there. That is rare, no line at dunkin…See More

What a beautiful story. God bless you for being there and also remembering her a dozen years later. I too lost a dear friend so I have felt your pain. The happy memories help!

Jane, or should I call you the "flower girl"? When you think about it, it is not weird that particular person sat next to you on the train. It was meant to be. I call it the invisible hand.........:)

Days 5,6&7

I am reminding myself that it is important to blog everyday. The fact is otherwise I forget and the day becomes a distant memory.Day 5 is "post veteran's day" for me. Hard to beat the great feeling I had that day. So, small gesture. but needed. My stepson was is desparate need of a shower curtain. A recent stay at his place determined that he needed a replacement. Mold just doesn't bode well particularly with all the germs going around. So, I mailed a replacement shower curtin liner to him. I…See More

Veteran's Day (Day 4 for me)

Posted on November 11, 2009 at 8:14pm 1 Comment

What a great day! Not hard to give on Veteran's Day. Started off with thanking my husband, a Vietnam Vet. Gave him a cute card and signed the dog's name too. Coincidentally, another friend's birthday over the weekend. She just turned 85, looks 65 and is so cute and adorable. I have to hug her everytime I see her! Anyway, we were all out at Panera after knitting, so I snuck up to the register and paid for her lunch! She was so surprized and had a huge grin on her face! At 85, I think they should… Continue
