DAYS 17-29 PLUS 6 FOR THE SECOND ROUND OF 29

Wow - I can't believe it's been so long since my last blog. It doesn't take long for me to get out of a routine. I am happy to report that I did stay in the routine of giving every day. I have continued on with my clicking on the Animal Rescue site and playing the Freerice game (although not every day for that one). I have also been donating a small amount of change to as many Salvation Army Red Kettles as possible. Since I spend half of my week going in and out of grocery stores for work, and…See More

"What a great idea to thank your first boss. I'm sure he will be very surprised and pleased! It sounds like you made Cliff's day with your gift of fudge and especially your thank you. This just shows that gifts don't have to be big (or…"

"Wow - that sounds like it was a very fun day for the kids as well as for you. I love the way you incorporated spiders into every aspect of the day. What a great way to learn!"

"I enjoyed reading about your gives. You sound like a very thoughtful giver! I love that you bought a 56 pack of diapers for $5.00. I also love the gift you gave yourself of the hot stone massage. I have never tried that one, but it sounds wonderful.…"

DAY 14

This will be a short blog as I need to get to bed. I did my clicking on the Animal Rescue Site and the Freerice.com site. I received a Caring Bridge update on the little guy I have been following. They listed the address to send him a card, so I decided to send him a card. I actually bought cards a few months ago with the intent of sending them to kids from this site, but never got around to it. I am glad to finally start using the cards. I also wrote a card to a woman that was a friend of my…See More

DAYS ELEVEN, TWELVE AND THIRTEEN

Well, true to form, I got out of the habit of blogging already. However, I did not stop gifting (yea!). My gifts were small as I am still not feeling well, working too hard and stressing out about finances. I hope the 29 I have given each day by clicking on the tabs on the animalrescuesite.com. I also started again on another site that I have used in the past. It is www.freerice.com. ; It is a site where you can donate grains of rice through the…See More

DAY 16

I like to write, but some days I'm just not in the mood. So, this will be another short post. I am really attempting to just stay in the habit of writing/bloggin. This keeps me motivated to keep on track with my daily giving.



Today I received an email about volunteering in some way (any way) for the possible recount of the election results for the governors race in my state. I don't consider myself in any way political and have never volunteered for anything political in my life, but… Continue

DAY 15

Posted on November 10, 2010 at 11:53pm 4 Comments

Another short blog - a long, busy day. I found a McDonald's where I was able to drop off my pop tops and can tops. I didn't see a bin, so I asked an employee if they had one. He got a manager and the manager told me they don't have a bin any longer, but he collects the pop tops and can tops and gives them to the Ronald McDonald house weekly. He thanked me and seemed very excited that I brought in such a large bag. He said that any McDonald's will take the tops even if they don't have a donation… Continue
