29-Day Giving Challenge

Well today I revisited the Kiva.org website for my gift. This site gives micro-loans to people all over the world to set up or expand their small businesses with the goal of raising the standard of living for their entire family. On the 16th of each month we are given credit for all of the loan payments made in the prior month for the purpose of reloaning that amount to a new loanee. I was able to set up two new loans today and make a small donation to the non-profit that runs the organization. Great day---I am definitely in the Christmas spirit!

Yes--- He is a wire hair fox terrier---full of vim and vigor. Great dog, but you have to be on your toes at all times. He is usually a few steps ahead of me at all times but his sense of humor keeps me in stiches most of the time (except when he is getting into trouble)

Thanks for the information on kiva.org. What a great idea for a gift; I plan to check out the website in more detail later this evening. By the way, your dog is gorgeous. Is that a wire haired fox terrier? I used to pet sit for one and he was a delightful little character.
