Gratitude - November 15
- I am grateful that I was able to get some overtime today, even if it meant getting up at 3:30 a.m. on a Saturday!
- I am grateful that I bought two 32 ounce Camelback water bottles so I can gauge how much water I'm drinking in a day!
- I am grateful for my friends who are always patient with me and love me unconditionally. Thanks boys and girls!
What are you grateful for? I've recently learned to look at my life and find three things to be grateful for each day. It took a class assignment in an on-line class to get me to see the optimistic side of life for a change, but I'm glad I finally have!
Plastic Bags
I was recently sent this link to a slide show created by a newspaper in Stroudsberg, PA called the Pocono Record. It really touched me so I though I would pass on the link to any and all interested.
I'm no bleeding heart, but I think this is a pretty important cause. I purchased a few re-usable bags my self in the past few months and just earlier today downloaded a pattern to sew tote bags that can be re-used. I plan on making these and giving them as Christmas presents to friends and family. I'm pretty broke this year, so at least it's something better than a cheesy card or something!
Take a look at the slide show and see if you're willing to make a change in your shopping habit. Even if you just bring ONE re-usable bag into the grocery store, it makes a difference. I now have 4 of them. It helps when bringing in the groceries, too. The baggers at the store tend to over-stuff the sturdier reusable version. This means less trips to the car! Hooray!
