What a lucky friend you have! I'm sure she knows it, too.
Maybe you are expecting too much too soon? I know that giving without any expectations of something in return isn't easy, but I'll bet if you try to just give (and even small gives are good ones, y'know) without expecting anything in return, you'll…
It's cold today, so I gave my daughters a Duraflame log for the fireplace.
This evening we went to see a Louisiana band here in Taos, NM. You'd probably be surprised at all the Louisiana bands that come here, but Taos is a major ski area, so it's also a tourist town.....and we have a LOT more live band entertainment than m…
9 stones - 9 love notes - 9 lucky, waiting people. :-)
My 29 gifts book came in the mail today. How great is that? I read it all today (but of course that means I can now reread it and that's even more fun.) I also now see what the pattern of the ritual is about and that's quite helpful. I even got to s…
Being snowed in, I decided to start reading Cami's book as a self give!! It is an awesome read and I didn't get much else done today!! Did my clicking gives and checked on 2 people who don't get out much. Made an avacado, grapefruit, lettuce salad t…
So yesterday I helped others by providing necessary coverage at work, and also setting limits for myself so that I can give work my best effort. This morning I gave myself a wonderful gift. I slept in a little bit then went for my run first thing, s…
Last night my left eye started bothering me, so I took out my contacts and went to bed shortly afterward. In the middle of the night, I woke up with my eye watering like crazy and swollen. All I could think about was the Disneyland outing I had plan…

THANK you... they are appreciated.
Thanks to all of you who have been supporting me. I am out of the hospital, but am having some problems with my hands that make using the keyboard challenging and painful. Hopefully I'll be back to blogging more regularly here soon.

Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!
Happy giving!
