ThanksGIVING and beyond
Unfortunately, I have fallen off in my giving and keeping track of the days. Perhaps I will just start with where I left off to keep it simple or maybe I should start over.
* I invited a dear friend (and his brother) to join my family at my parents' home for Thanksgiving dinner. He lost his grandmother who raised him this past Spring so this was his first holiday without her. They both had a great time and said it was just like being at home with their family.
*I took two huge bags of beautiful children's clothing to GoodWill.
* I took one of my employees grocery shopping and gave her an extra $100 last week. She was laid off from her full-time job some seven months ago and is really struggling financially.
