What Is Happening Today On Gather - Monday,...

Monday has arrived again. I do hope each of you had a wonderful weekend. I hated to see the weekend end. I have lots of things to update you on, so grab a soda or mug of hot chocolate and let's chat. It looks like a very busy week for the gather community.

1. How do you get your baby to stop crying? You know what I am talking about. It is 3 in the morning and the baby wakes you up crying his/her lungs out. What do you do to calm them down? Harvard Health Publications has published an article that requests your input. Share your methods and you could receive a free copy of "Eat, Play and Be Healthy." Gather will randomly pick 10 members to receive the free book. You must have your comment posted by Wednesday, March 12th to be eligible. While you are checking out this article, you may want to read more of their articles. Their articles are always informative and helpful. They have published articles such as: How To Lower Your Breast Cancer Risk

Gene Linked To Deadly Prostate Cancer

2. Have you had a chance to check out the group Moms2B? It is a wonderful group for anyone who is pregnant or trying to conceive. It is the place to share and discuss your experiences with others. Currently, they are asking members of the gather community to host an online on gather baby shower. Gather will provide one lucky Mom whose shower was hosted in March and April with a baby shower gift basket. They have published an article with all the instructions and more details here.

Have you noticed that we have a new travel correspondent? Luna Rushdi began her new assignment on March 7th. She has written her first article. Her column name is The Land Down Under. Her first article is titled: Fifteen Locations in Five Days.

Lisa Gensheimer will be hosting a lunchtime discussion of Chapter Two from Eckhart Tolles : A New Earth: Awakening to your Lifes's Purpose," on Tuesday March 11 at 12 Noon Eastern Standard Time. The discussion will be right here on gather.

Barbara B has writing an amazing story titled "Blue Bonnets of Texas." Barbara has posted the entire story on gather. It consists of 20 chapters. Each chapter is published in a separate article, beginning with chapter one.

Have You had a chance to download "The Celebrity Italian Table"? The official Gather Group is The Italian Table. It is free to download and put out by Barilla. I love mine, it is worth downloading. It has 32 pages in it. They have extended the deadline to March 31. Barilla will donate $1.00 to The Nation's Second Harvest Food Bank Network. The cool part is that you can choose to have it sent to your local food bank. If you don't have a food-bank that you would like the $1.00 sent too, My local food bank helps the people in my community. It is in West Virginia, Mountaineer Food Bank. I receive food from them to distribute to my clients. I run a food pantry for Webster county. You can read more about this wonderful opportunity here.

You can read of many more opportunities for this week in Friday's Today On Gather article.

This article is published each weekday to the Today On Gather Group.
