  1. Become A Blood Donor - 05 Feb 2007

    I am going to a Blood Service clinic this morning for the first time. Thanks for this action.

  2. Encourage Others To Go Generous - 05 Feb 2007

    I am sending this out to the leadership at my church. Every week we try to find ways to open doors, share our blessings and carry water to the world.

  3. Get Rid Of Some Of Your Books - 06 Feb 2007

    I stopped by a local coffee shop/bookstore dropped off 15 titles that I wasn’t going to read again. Someone else gets a deal on the books and I have $25 credit at the shop.

  4. Get Rid of Your Car - OK, ambitious, but... - 06 Feb 2007

    We have moved to the inner city and I can walk or ride almost every where. My dearest does in home counselling throughout the city and uses a car for work but we have cut down from 2 vehicles to 1 so we are making progress.

  5. Make A Positive Lifestyle Change And Tell Us About It - 07 Feb 2007

    Moved our offices to a coop where 35 other charities share space and resources.

  6. Switch off and unplug appliances and chargers - 11 Feb 2007

    This will be a tougher habit to learn. I have walked away from the charger for so many years but maybe if I make the charge process a bit less convenient, it will stick. I will try to charge phone somewhere more conspicuous.
