29-Day Giving Challenge

So today I didn't have a "give idea" pop out at me and I thought -- through out the day I'll just see where it goes and what might come my way. Well, nothing really did and then I thought "hang on a minute Melissa" -- My partner is turning 40 this October and a while ago a friend of mine was telling me how she did "30 days of presents" for her husband when he turned 30. I thought that is really cute, why not "40 days of presents" -- So about two weeks ago I started doing just that for Tanya.
So technically, I'm giving everyday! LOL -- I just don't like to use those because I had already planned on doing that before I started the 29 give AND it's the same type of give everyday --- And may I just mention, it's not as easy as it sounds ... "40 days of presents" sounds like a great idea ... until you start getting presents and go, 'dang, what else can I do" -- It's been pretty fun though and I've been able to get creative which has been pretty neat.

Hope everybody is having a great weekend

Sounds like a great idea Melissa, the small gifts each day can have much more impact than a big gift. Your planning the 40 gifts for your partner just shows you were ahead of the game :)

I did the 13 days of Christmas on year when my son was in New York City and would miss Christmas with the family. It was fun. The only thing was I had to send them all at once and he had to only open the one for the right day. He loved it. I sent decorations for Christmas as part of the 13 days. He wore his stocking cap the whole time. Have lots of fun with your 40 days.
