Day 8 & 9 - 3/16,17/10

Day 8--Today when I let traffic go ahead of me, it was nearly automatic. I'd like to think that these "gifts" are making me a nicer, less stressed person especially in traffic. I also gave the gifts of empathy and encouragement to an injured worker today. Her situtation is very similiar to mine--injured at work with an employer who still expects full work performance. I talked to her about my experience and let her know to speak up when she needed help (as I didn't and was injured worse).Day…See More

Day7 - 3/15/10

I gave the gift of generosity today--I'm in an online postcards swap where you send 5 postcards to the 5 people below you on the list. I decided to send to everyone today including the ones overseas that take the 98cent stamps. Thought everyone would enjoy a little hello to brighten their day.Also gave the gift of heartflet thanks today. I received 2 packages in the mail from online swaps that I'm doing and made it a point to show pictures to the groups and let the senders know that I really…See More

Aww! That's a sweet gift, and one I can appreciate--I don't spend as much time with my kitty anymore, because I'm allergic to him and he stays on the other side of the baby gate, away from the dogs. It's so good that you gave…

Day 4 - 3/12/10

Gave the gift of acceptance--I have a hard time accepting gifts, compliments, or anything given to me because I have always felt (or was told) I didn't deserve things. Getting things from others makes me feel uncomfortable unless I feel I have earned or worked for them. I usually turn down most offerings if that is an option just to avoid those feelings. I'm trying to change that. So today I said yes to anything that was offered. I was given a cart at the grocery store (the kind you have to pay…See More

I was shocked as I said. It was a local library book club and even the librarian called the book whiny and greedy. It was interesting how people can put a nagative spin on anything. I definately learned so much about my own attitude and how it…

Hi Susan....I noticed you were a member of the group Pittsburgh Gives a Damn......it made me think of this new book I'm reading now by Nancy Martin: Our Lady of Immaculate Deception. A comedic mystery series...she wrote The Blackbird Sisters Mystery. Just mentioning it cuz it takes place in Pittsburgh, much like Evanovich's Trenton, NJ. I can't post to that group ....not a member....so thought you might care to tell them about it.
