Adventures in Thumbholes

I read the article I'm sharing here and it hits me, I live by myself and just imagine what my sister will have to go through if something happens to me, so I started cleaning my closet and giving so many things away as well throwing things to the garbage. Thanks for the Eco-challenge experience, it was great seeing so many people committed to...

During my morning walk, I felt so grateful for the nice weather we are having lately here in Texas. Having my dogs with me and knowing that Bruno my rescued dog is behaving better, makes me feel so happy, and just confirmed me that I love my Mother Earth and all the work we do together is worthed. 

Not only did I step away from the computer this afternoon to take a short walk, but I also filled up my neighborhood's little free library with books.

Since we started the Eco-Challenge I've been saving the peels and anything that can be composted. This morning I was watering my plants and the dry leaves will be included in the composting batch.  I found out last night that one lettuce head in the landfills takes 25 years to get decomposed. I haven't watched the movie, but I'm looking forward...

As a trail runner and lover of our public lands, I give back whenever I can - this past Saturday, I spent the morning pulling ivy with friends and the Forest Park Conservancy. Lots of fun and always rewarding - even in the rain!  

I went to Sprouts and I brought  my own bags with me and let my friend to borrow now, and she didn't use plastic for veggies. Reuse a bag my boss throw away. I reuse all I can!
