The Beginning

It is my third official day of the challenge. Day one - I posted a thank you to all my friends and family on Facebook for being in my life - past present and future. Day two - send gift basket to my Great Aunt and her son who live far away and have gotten to the point of not cooking for Thanksgiving. Because I cannot afford to go there, I ordered a cheese and wine basket for them as well as a turkey breast. Day three - today - I donated $40 to Arc United - a nonprofit in northern MN that provides advocacy for people with disabilities. I have four brothers and sisters with disabilities and this organization has provided much for them. (If anyone is interested you can get involved by going to http://www.razoo.com/story/Arc-United). I also have made an effort to call/contact friends and family to see how they are, provided a listening ear to two colleagues who I usually vent to, and made a nice call to my husband this morning to see how his back was feeling (he fell off his bike yesterday...). So far I am thoroughly enjoying this challenge!
