Weekend Giving--Round 2, continued

On Friday (Day 9), we had a training at work. At the end of the training, I discovered I had a small candy bar which I gave to one of the trainers who had worked especially hard to instruct us.Saturday (Day 10)--In addition to sharing about the 29 Gifts Challenge with a coworker...when I got home from work late that night, everyone in my family was in bed, but the kitchen was a wreck. I gladly cleaned the kitchen before heading to bed myself so my husband would have a clean kitchen to come down…See More

Round 2: Days 6, 7 and 8. Joyful giving.

I love the way I am finding little ways to give all throughout the day, opportunities I would never have noticed before the challenge. I have picked up more litter since starting this challenge! I'm holding doors open for people, saying Thank-you to people I normally wouldn't (an employee performing a routine duty for the department I work in).Today (Day 8) I gave a holy card to the little boy and girl who were smiling at me in the pew in front of me at Mass. This turned into an instant…See More

"It isn't much fun to wake up to a dirty kitchen, it was thoughtful of you to clean up before heading off to bed. I love the grocery store too - it is a great place to smile at people you don't know and this challenge has given me more…"

Round 2: Days 4 and 5--Getting in the Groove Again

I feel like I sort of cheated since my gift for Day 4 occurred at 1:30am in the morning (feeling more like a part of Day 3 still...). I had gotten home from work and the kitchen was still a mess. Everyone was in bed and I knew my husband had a busy evening caring for our boys. I chose to clean the kitchen before going to bed so he would wake up to a clean kitchen. So whether it "counts" as part of Day 3 or already into Day 4, it was a nice gift nonetheless.Yesterday (May 17) was Day 4. I love…See More

Round 2: Days 2 and 3

Round 2Day 2May 14, 2010The Dare for today was to call my husband unexpectedly at work just to let him know I was thinking about him and for no other reason than to see if he needed anything. I didn't reach him but I left him a kind message letting him know I was thinking of him and loved him very much :)Day 3May 15, 2010My scheduled shift ended at 11pm tonight, but things on the unit were getting very busy, and I felt sympathy for my coworker who would have to face this pile of work alone. I…See More

Days 24 and 25...heading for the home stretch

Friday, May 7th was Day 24 for me and I barely squeaked out a gift. The day almost got by me without a conscious gift. At the end of the night, my oldest son (age 14), had already trudged up to bed and he said he was exhausted from several workouts that day. My husband reminded him he needed to go downstairs to take his medicine. My son refused, saying he was too tired. I saw the goal-line-stand starting between husband and son and knew it wouldn't be pretty. I slipped downstairs, got the…See More

Day 22 and 23: Simple Gifts and Giving at the Grocery Store

My gift for Day 22 (yesterday) was to call a gentleman who was a friend of a client that I worked with, and offer him the suggestion of the title of a book which might help him understand what his friend is going through. It was a very busy day at work, and I only met this client briefly as I had to decide to admit her to our inpatient unit. I was far behind in my work and had plenty to do, but later in the day, when the name of that book came to me as being relevant to the situation, I decided…See More

Day 19: Every good and perfect gift is from above...

"Every good and perfect gift is from above..." James 1:17This was in the first reading at church today, and it really spoke to me as I am moving through my 29-day giving challenge. It reminded me that when I give, I am really just sharing the gifts that are given to me--nothing is my own.Today I wanted to give to a friend a book I had picked up at a used book sale. As I was writing the card and planning to drop it off at her house when I went running, I remembered that she was out of town on…See More
