I have been sitting here thinking about my New Year's resolution for 2010...I hate making them and sometimes feel like the ones I come up with are broken before they start. So- this year I am making…Continue

The Last Two Days (28 and 29)

This weekend was the last two days of my first full round of the 29 days of giving. I finished some bracelets Friday night and now need to find some kids to send them to on Post Pals. I had also initially set out to paint on Friday and did not get around to that...I did paint today! I went to my sisters. It was a girl's weekend with her and my two nieces. I wanted to be there for her right now. She needs me. We went for our first long run in our marathon training program (so much easier and…See More

I joined Wish Upon a Hero yesterday and right away I found a family whose wish I could grant! I am so excited! I have an old gaming system that was going unused and when I tried to take it to the Pawn shop they didn't need it so it has been…

Snow Day today so I decided it was the perfect time to complete the challenge for January! Well, at least get started on joining those causes (most of which Mary made me aware of--thanks Mary!) and seeking out others I am interested in being a part…

Days 24 and 25!

Wow! Just four more days of my 29 days (at least the first full round!).Yesterday (24) I found out some news from my sister. It was not good news and, regardless of my point of view or opinion, she needed my support. I needed to dig deep and not judge and give her my unconditional support and love. I listened and waited to hear what she needed of me and tried to give her advice that might make the decision easier to discuss and make sense of. I don't know if I was right in what I said or if she…See More

That was a big give to have an ugly rug in your entryway.

Why I'm choosing to give:
I think it is important to consciously think about what I do, each day, for others. I believe that starting this will enable me to make a habit out of giving. It is a special message to send to our youth today and I feel it is my responsibility to model this positive behavior.
What I'd most like to receive:
Awareness, peace, love, patience, happiness, freedom from anxiety, courage, knowing in my career, and a feeling of "at ease"ness in my running.
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?

About me:
I am a teacher in a small town. I have family nearby and enjoy spending as much time with them as possible.
I love art (all of it) and music, and I love to challenge myself and create new possibilities in my life.
I am a runner and a health "nut" who enjoys being outdoors. I have a cat, no kids, and am happily living with my soulmate.
Do you agree to read and follow the 29Gifts Code of Conduct once you join our site?
Yes

Day 27

Two days left! (Well- three if I count today!)

I am at home on another snow day and watching the Today Show. There is a woman speaking about her book called "The Happiness Project" by Gretchen Rubin. She is speaking about making the smallest changes in the things we already do to create happiness in our everyday lives. I am going to check it out...she has a blog.

Thought I would include that today since it just happened to be on and it may be a great gift to someone I know.

Today… Continue
