Day two- round 3

I just finished reading Cami's book and LOVED it. I have decided to start each day with a positive affirmation and a short meditation. Yesterday I gave with lots and lots of love. I started by giving my hubby breakfast in bed.(He loved it!) We have both been so busy lately that we have been forgetting to stop and take the time to nurture our relationship. I focused on how grateful I am to have him in my life. It hasn't always been easy, especially with him being in the military, but he truly is…See More

I read your blog and it completely hit home for me. I also have three children (ages 6, 4, and 2) I am always feeling torn between them all wanting my undivided attention. This is especially true at night. It's sooo important to spend one on…

We should all take time to give to ourselves. It makes giving to others a whole lot easier.

Giving to myself day 2 round 2

I read Mbali's post about giving to ourselves and I have decided to devote this round of giving to myself. This is pretty hard for me because for some reason I always feel guilty when I do things just for me. I have so much to do already with kids, home, hubby and everyone else.....that I always end up putting myself last. This isn't good! So this 29 day cycle I am going to focus on giving to myself and NOT feeling gulty about it.Okay-Day one was yesterday and I decided to splurge and buy…See More

Day 29!!!!

I just realized today is my 29th day!!! I back-tracked on my blog posts and saw that my first one was August 30th, but I was already seven days into giving. Wow!! Time flies!Yesterdays give was groceries to a family in need. Today (day 29) I invited my friend over, whos baby is overdue. She is VERY pregnant and pretty uncomfortable. I offered to give her a pedicure (since she can't reach her feet) and I remember those days.....not so fun! lol. It turned into a nice night! She loved the pedicure…See More

lots of great gives and receives... Like your last paragraph, I do think it's important that we don't just say yes to everything ... we might end up feeling resentful for agreeing to do something. I recently read that if one has a hard…

Not sure what day I am on......

But since I don't plan on stopping after day 29 I suppose it doesn't matter much. :) I have had a really great week....minus some squabbles with my hubby. I have been giving without even thinking about it...it just seems to happen naturally.Some recent gives: nature walks with my babies (a gift for all of us), forgiveness (more than once), a shoulder to cry on (again, more than once), my toy drive at Christmas was approved ( I can't wait!), took my brother to an amazing little country kitchen…See More

Feeling Good!

My cold seems to be going away.....Yiiippppeeeee!!! Today was a good day for giving! My brother told me his car isn't working and he doesn't have the money to fix it. I would have gave it to him, but I don't have it at the time either. So I offered him our other car instead....until he saves the money to get his fixed. My husband is a recruiter and drives a government vehicle so he can use that for the time being.



Also, I have been wanting to give something back to the Ronald… Continue
