One of my favorite ways to give is through kiva.org. This is a site where business owners from all over the world, specifically in developing nations, apply for a micro loan to boost up their business. They pay everything back and they update their site to show you what progress they have made with the loan money. The funny thing is that they have a higher repayment rate than Americans do. I love the idea of helping those who are already helping themselves and today I'm going to give $500 in loans out on kiva.org.
Secondly I'm going to equip my kitchen for eating more raw foods and get a vitamix blender, a food dehydrator and a food processor. I already have a juicer so now I have everything that I need to make delicious, organic, raw, healthy meals for myself and for friends. All that gear costs about $600.
I enjoy spending time with my mom and a couple of our favorite things to do are going to the spa, going to a book store and eating out at some of our favorite restaurants. I'm going to get us a spa day package for two at Dragon Tree Spa, our favorite spa here in town. Then we will go have a nice meal at Papa Hayden's restaurant in NW on 23rd then we can go down to Powell's Books in the Pearl and browse and shop for books. That's $900.
In order to get rid of the last $3000 for the day I'm going to take Trevor down to Platinum Records where we can load up on gear and vinyl. There is plenty of back stock of records that we could shop for, a new mixer for home, extra sets of needles, we could use a couple pin lights for parties and maybe even another disco ball.
This feels like a completely decedent day! Wow!
