Hiatus....

Hey, I know I haven't posted in AGES here, but I've been busy with the baby blog...I'll try to get on here this weekend and find something "thought-provoking" to write about! ;)

~Ciao

Happy Earth Day!

Today is EARTH DAY-yay! What are you doing to be "green"? Let's see, since last year, I have started being more conscious to recycle, Wayne and I carpool to work and home, I've started using vinegar as a cleaning agent (and won't buy anymore chemicals to clean with moving forward)-this is especially important for 2 more reasons; we're pregnant and we don't think it's kind to our indoor pets!

So, even if it's just for today; pick up that cup someone threw in the parking lot (those sweepers are HORRID emmissions emittors), use the recycle bin at work (or better yet, go spend another 8 bucks on a trash can and RECYCLE at home), buy recycled paper products.....it's SO easy :)

Please Be Aware!

I know it happens to everyone; we all get distracted while we're driving, either via cell phone, children, radio, etc., but please try to be more aware!

Last night, Wayne was driving home from bowling, and someone hit him. He was in the turn lane, waiting to make a left turn, and someone tried to turn (also left) across the road, swiping his drivers side fender and door. They "claim" they didn't see his HUGE, WHITE Chevy Silverado? The funny thing (at least to me) is that if they'd stopped at the stop sign, there's NO WAY you could have missed his gigantic truck sitting in the turn lane?

I'm just grateful that he's ok; although he's sore today, adrenaline kept him from feeling anything last night. Thank God he was wearing a seat belt, and that his bowling balls (in bag) didn't fly through the front window, or worse, into his head!

People, cell phones are a privilege, not a necessity. Be conscious that people may have family, and you could very well take that away. If you're more worried about something other than your car and your courteous driving of that vehicle....DON'T DRIVE, take the bus!
