I notice that most stores are now Selling bags. You pay $1.00 for a bag you can re-use. This little publicity stunt has nothing to do with the environment and everything to do with the bottom line. I suspect if the stores were serious about environmental issues, they would just quit having plastic bags, and sell [...]

I got up, put out the garbage and recycleing and sat down to the sewing machine. I had quite a bit done on the petticoats for the flower girl dresses when I realized I was just a little short of fabric. Oh well. I had an appointment at the recycling center, can you believe I needed [...]

If your work area looked like this, what would you do? What I did was go outside and work on the yard. We finally had a nice weather day. The ditches by the road got raked, the weed and feed got spread. And I was rewarded with this:

Papa, GS2, GD2 and I took a quick trip to the Cranbrook Science Museum today. It was Saturday, so there was a bevy of activity. GS2 and Papa watched a show in the planetarium while GD2 and I wandered. Her reaction to the Mammoth was , “Look at the big elephant!” She found the motion [...]

I know you remember the (what-a-nice) dish post of a while back. I was confronted with a similar situation a couple of days ago. You remember my flu, right? I didn’t feel too good Sunday evening, so I asked Papa to go to the store and get cake and topping for our strawberries. He did. [...]

We had a fine weekend, in spite of the miserable weather. We went “up North” on Friday night, arriving at M-in-L’s home about 9:30. She was waiting up, good thing it didn’t take any longer. If you really care, this is one some people think about the geography around here. ( if you read that [...]

TIME OUT from the fun, please read this carefully. Especially if you are concerned about the future on our earth. The Detroit Free Press front page is screaming at me today, “Ski-high dioxin level taints river in Saginaw”. People, if you don’t understand about dioxins you aren’t alone. Dr. Linda Birnbaum made a presentation on [...]

As usual, I have plenty I could complain about, and then I saw this on Sista’s blog. I’ve got nothing to say now, except please pray for everyone in danger.

A nice day yesterday, and another coming. Perhaps a week full of them. This time of year, warm days are a reminder to get the fall stuff done, before it’s too late. My fall list has been put off, don’t know when I will resume. Spent yesterday afternoon with step dad at the eye doctor. [...]
