Hello everyone.
I'm back. I know that it's been a while since I've posted but
I have been quite challenged. I'm sure that I have 'given'
but I didn't record it to memory so I'm choosing to begin
again. Well, the biggest 'give' that I probably ever had to
do was to write the obituary for a good friend and neighbor of mine.

(I also wrote a book on Wardrobing)…

Greetings and Happy Giving Day to you all! My day 5 of giving was mild.
I gave the gift of 'Preparation'. I helped my Dad prepare his ideas for an
online business that he's creating. He will be 72 on the 18th of December and It
doesn't seem as though he's aged a bit! Wow! Go Dad!
On day Six, I mailed out two special cards. One was to my niece, a young Professor in Missouri,
my oldest sister's daughter. I gave her the gift of… Continue
