Happy Earth Day!

Answers to my questions.

What are you doing for earth day??? 

We didn't do much just sat around the homestead.

What have you done in the passed year to help change the earths atmosphere?

• Let see I have been recycleing but this year I have been trying to do more then just paper.
  
• We planted 3 trees
  
• We installed a tankless water heater. Helped the pocket book to. 
  
• We resided our home
  
• Got new windows 
  

We already do alot in our house and every year we try to do more not only to help mother nature but also what we do will help our pocket book.

Ok the last 2 BIG ones we did this year

• My hubby volunteered to put the new solar panels up at Merriville's Police Station/Town hall.
  
• I traded my Ultra low emissions Honda Civic for a 2010 Honda Insight Hybrid!!! Gotta Love the Avg 45 miles per gallon.

 

What are plans to do this year to help the earth?

I know we are planning on planting more trees but, I am not sure what else yet. Time will tell.

The Garbage Truck Rule

I just read this on a fellow bloggers blog. She did not write it either but it is so true I had to share it. 

The Garbage Truck Rule – anonymous

One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And, I mean, he was really friendly. 
So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!” This is when my tax driver taught me what I now call, ‘The Law of the Garbage Truck’.

He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they’ll dump it on you. Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets. 
The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so… Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don’t.

Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent attitude!

Have a garbage-free day!
