Every Day is Earth Day


{ my recycling for this week }

We all know April is Earth Month. There's Earth Hour and Earth Day, plus a whole bunch of Earthy events going on throughout the month. Every day is Earth Day to me!

I've been recycling for as long as I can remember. Each week I'm sorting my trash from recyclables: Paper, Cardboard, Egg Cartons, Glass, Plastic, Aluminum. I don't have access to full recycling near my apartment, so I use the Safety Harbor Recycling Center downtown and drop off my stuff plus everything I can collect (and save from the trash) at work. You could call me The Recycling Coordinator.



In honor of Mother Earth, I will photograph all of my recycling this month and blog it for the world to see!

Here are some helpful recycling links:

JOURNAL

Surprisingly I am not really sore today. I feel good and rested for a change. Lauren even said that my dark circles are almost gone. It has been so long since my circles went away. Maybe the Jus is working! I needed more antioxidants this whole time and now can get ORAC of 8687 in a 1 oz shot. Amazing! Jus meeting tomorrow morning... will post about it.

Going to recycle after work today. It's so much easier when done on a weekly basis. If I let it go too long my entire car is full. I think it's amazing at how much I can collect in a week, compared to how much people just throw away to go sit in a landfill for hundreds of years. Plastic takes about 450-1,000 years to biodegrade. Haven't you noticed how much plastic we use? Bags, water and soda bottles, plastic wrap, etc, etc. Plastic is everywhere!

I ended up taking the entire day completely off. Hey, it's Friday. Time to kick back and enjoy the weekend! My cocktail turned out pretty good. I only needed 1. When I drink beer I usually want a few (more calories). This drink only had 1 can of LaCroix Orange (seltzer water and natural flavoring), 1 shot of Tenure Vodka and a slice of lime. Light and yummy!

Here are some more LaCroix recipes.

Off to watch more of Twin Peaks Season 1.

Enjoy the weekend!
