Well, there is one thing that is very near and dear to my heart that I have yet to blog about. Shame on me for this!
The environment, mother nature, the green earth and the blue waters. We need to be taking care of these very precious commodities. While you may think that this blog is due to the big Earth concert this past weekend, it isn't. Those that know me, will laugh while they tell you that I do in fact hug trees and they have seen me do it. They think I am insane when I tell them to hug one as well. Hey, until you have done it, don't knock it. It is a truly energizing experience.
There are times that I have journeyed into the middle of the forest, just to sit and listen to the trees. As I pointed out to my husband the last time we walked through the woods, have you ever noticed that not all trees sway a breeze. Have you ever stopped to listen to them talk? You should, part of the problem with our society is that we are not intune with mother nature.
There are simple little things that you can do to "go green" and not totally change your way of life, so there goes that excuse.
For example, when you shower, brush your teeth during your shower. Try to keep that shower to three minutes. Do you realize that the water you use in a 3 minute shower is more water then a person in Africa uses for an entire day for all their needs. Stop and think about that.
What's her name, Tyra Banks, believes in only flushing when needed. Which I assume means after going number 2 or multiple times of number 1. Ok, sorry Tyra, that is just nasty. Because the smell that is created is toxic enough, please flush.
Use refillable water bottles. Even if you are recycling, refill them.
Check out and up and coming website all about the going green and the funny stories that go along with it. www.beturtle.com!
I highly recommend it, and who knows I may become a writer for them as well. I hope anyway.
Oh! Speaking of writing. I gave up the note book and went to the laptop. Even though I used recycled note book paper.... I still used to much of it. So now, Word is my friend and it all gets saved on the computer. Mistake = delete!
Be kind to mother nature!

The environment is something I need to be more aware of. Born and raised in the smoggy foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, I'm a southeastern native and definitely see (and smell) the harm we have (and still) created by our own greed, carelessness, and ignorance. And now that we know what we are doing, so few people are concerned. It sometimes makes you wonder, by the time everyone cares enough to try to make a difference, will it be too late, will we already be dead?
So, my applause to you for reminding us to take care of the delicate natural surroundings we are lucky enough to enjoy...so we can continue to enjoy :-)
