29-Day Giving Challenge

Ok so today didn't start out so great. I couldn't get to sleep until 3am last night and then I slept until noon. So much for the sleeping medication working. I have also been having blackouts upon standing. I don't know if this is the new medication or possibly high intracranial pressure. I'll talk to my doctor tomorrow.

Since I was kind of limited today in what I could do, I didn't go anywhere. I did manage to get the closet underneath the stairs cleaned out and vacuumed so that we could place all of the things that we are takin with us in there. That way when the movers come to back up our house we can make sure that nothing we need will get packed up and held in storage for a year. My husband had mentioned that he was going to but the weekend got away from him. So I got it done! I also helped my husband get ready for tomorrow, he is receiving an important award. I cleaned his low quarters (dress shoes) to wear for the ceremony!

I got a really great gift today! I happen to have met (well, online playing poker) an Irish writer and he sent me a copy of his book, signed and everything! I m so excited ! It's like Christmas came early! I am soooo thrilled that he sent me his book because I can't buy it here in the states! So although the day didn't start well and I have a little health concern it turned out to be a beautiful day!

Gifts cleaning the closet and cleaning his low quarters
Given with love and admiration. He does a great job in the Air Force.
Gratitudes That I could clean the closet even though it was a tough day for me! :) That my husband is an amazing MSgt in the Air Force and that he's being recognized for it. That I received a book from a friend! Even through the rain my life is a rainbow!

I've been away from blogging but not giving. Still it is helpful to blog every day. On Saturday, my husband and I went out to breakfast with my son Shea's hockey team and I gave the waitress a double tip. On Sunday I made batches of caramel corn to…

I haven't been blogging every day, obviously and I'm not sure if I should be, but I'm doing it when I can! I have continued giving every day...I just love it! I will definitely continue. I helped a lady with her cart at the grocery store the other d…

Thanks for all your comments! This is the first time I've gone quite so public with my story. I've always imagined myself helping others through sharing my life's journey in some way. But I always found an excuse why I couldn't or shouldn't. So I've…

I have received a few gifts, tea, coffee and a co-worker bought me a cool ornament for my house. I have given quite a few out of the blue compliments. Offered to help with a few different things. I am hoping to give more and more!

I agree with that totally, I am a bit of a procrastinator sometimes and this has pushed me to do things NOW rather than think about it and potentially never get to it! What kind of yoga do you teach? I have just started to practice Ashtanga yoga. Ha…

Yesterday, to thank the receptionist at my office for appearing in a video for a website I'm working on, I bought her a bouquet of flowers + chocolates. It was a gift for me too as I got to have the strawberry and coffee flavour chocolates :)Either…

Thank you for talking about your creative blockage. When you have a very task oriented job i think it sucks your creative side. A book marker what a great idea. It is good to start small. have a great day. Michele
