Hi again!

Some of us have been writing on here about giving to others this time of year.:heart: If you're interested, I found a great website to help us all find a charity that we would like to help (if we can)! If we're able, we can give money and/or volunteer time wherever we choose. You can do your own research on this site and find your favorite charity(ies). www.charitynavigator.org

I thought maybe I will donate some of the money I'm saving from not eating as much...:tongue: That would probably be quite a bit (lol).

Helping however we are able can give us such a great feeling of joy in this wonderful season of giving...:flowerforyou: And, it helps our kids to want to give to others, as well. Pay it forward... HAPPY, HEALTHY HOLIDAYS TO ALL OF YOU, and I hope we all keep taking good care of ourselves, too...

Take care, Laura :bigsmile:

    That is a great way to help others out. Another way of giving & just go out and sing. My husband & father in law play guitar & so we usually pick a old folks home and go and sing christmas carols. A lot of them likes for my father in law to sing in spanish so he does & we help him and my daughters get some little grandpas to dance with & we leave there feeling good as well as them.They have a smile on their faces & that's all we care about,,,,,
