A Glorious Day

I wanted to wish a HAPPY EARTH DAY to everyone! My heart sings with love for this beautiful planet that we call home :-)

And I can certainly not forget Good Friday and all that it conjures up for me. This Easter season immediately reminds me of my days growing up back in Georgia. Easter was always one of my very favorite times of the year and it always brings feelings of renewal to my mind. When I was a child, we would prepare an Easter program at church and it was a glorious tradition. All of us kids would participate by singing and/or reciting what we called Easter speeches. The Easter speeches were poetic pieces that we learned by heart and recited to the congregation and our proud parents. I look back now and realize how lucky we all were to be able to have that sense of community. Those times live now only in my memories, but I'm glad that they're mine forever :-)

Have a wonderful weekend!

Earth Day 2010

Happy Earth Day everyone! :-)

I love this picture of our planet. It reminds me of how precious our life here is.




And I just love the green wildness of this picture. It makes me happy. This is from back home in Georgia. It just makes me think of life...



Have a wonderful day everybody! :-)

My New Bag

I wanted to share something new with you all. I’ve written before about our recycling and efforts to do more to do our part. So I wanted to show you my new favorite thing in this vein. Brit Boy and I have quite a few reusable bags that we carry with us to the stores. They are mostly utilitarian and not that cute. (smile) So when I saw this bag a few weeks ago, I just had to have it. Hey, a girls’ gotta have a bit of style with her consciousness too. (wink) Here it is. It is stored in this little pouch, about the size of a sunglasses case, with a snap at one end and a loop at the other.



The loop is very handy so you can attach it to your purse or shopping cart. Or you can just store the bag in your purse.











The snapped end opens and this is where you pull the bag out. Once you unsnap it, you tug on the cord and the bag comes out.



When you pull it out, it’s inside out. Then you just turn it over to the correct side and then bam, you’re ready to go!





It has a nice looped handle and it makes this bag a breeze to carry. The bag expands very wide, so you can get lots of stuff in there. And since it’s sort of teardrop-shaped it has a nice hang to it. The fabric moulds to the shape of whatever you have in the bag.

This is not a paid post. I just really wanted to share the news about this great bag. (smile) I did a bit of research and found that you can get this bag on Amazon at this link here if you’re interested.

Now I’ve got to go and put my cute little bag back in the car. (smile) Happy shopping!

Earth Day 2009

Today is Earth Day and it is a day to celebrate and help our beautiful planet. I love that there is a day when we can all think about what we can do to make our planet a cleaner and greener place. The beauty of this day though is that the awareness doesn’t have to stop tonight when the clock strikes midnight. We can all do our part every day of the year. Please check out this Earth Day site. This and other sites are great resources to find out how we can all do more. I’m learning myself because I just want to do what I can to help along the future of our planet. I don’t have kids, but I have many nieces and nephews, and for them and other children, I want to leave a green mark on the world when I go. (smile) I know that this is all a complex issue, but a lot of times I just cut away all of that and think of it simply. I look outside and see scenes like these and I realize how blessed we all are that we were born here.




The first two photos are from here in England and the last one is from back home in Georgia...two homes to me, but they are all on the same planet that I love. (smile) I’m not here to preach or anything like that, because I’m still learning myself, but as you go about your day, spare a thought for our planet Earth. (smile) Happy Earth Day everybody!

Earth Day

Today is Earth Day and I like this day. I like that this day is about doing what we can to take care of this beautiful planet of ours. Nowadays there are a variety of days and programs that highlight environmental issues. It is trendy right now, but it is a darned good trend. (smile) May it long continue. I love all of the efforts. My main concern, besides the very real issue of global warming, is that we just simply can’t trash our planet. I guess that all that talk in school when I was a kid during the 70s and 80s stuck about littering. (smile) But as an adult, I know it goes so much further than that, into things about carbon emissions and the like. I am intrigued more and more to find out what I can do to help.

I just wonder sometimes though, what point has been passed and can we do anything about it now? But I guess that we have to do our best to turn back the tide as much as we can through our governments and individually. I can’t tell anyone else how to live, but I love the natural beauty of this planet so I want to do my part. I used to plant trees with my dad when I was a kid, so perhaps I can continue that legacy. After all, trees are beautiful and they clean the air for us. I will definitely find my way to help more and more. Today was our recycling pick up day and Brit Boy and I always participate in that. Tomorrow won't be Earth Day, but it is still an opportunity for me to do better. Here’s to the Earth! (smile)
