We Made It!

I really don't know how we made it through the entire week without the TV, but somehow it was done. I really thought I would have had accomplished a lot more during the times we normally would watch a show or two, but the time somehow slipped away. Oh well, the point was that we gave up a source of energy usage for a spell, so I feel better about the whole thing. (Incidentally, Juan has been watching a special report on Savants for the last hour or so. It's really interesting, but I personally think he's just trying to show the TV a little attention so its feelings don't get hurt.)

This week is a week of RECYCLING! We are strictly using the plethora of *reusable shopping bags we've collected for any purchases requiring a bag; we are also bringing the entire collection of plastic grocery bags that, quite frankly, we will never use again (minus the few that will continue to serve as trash can liners throughout the house,) back to the grocery store to be recycled. I love that they offer to take your old bags back!


*I've blogged about this before, but I will re-state my love for the BAGGU bags. They're fantastic and so versatile/handy! I throw mine in the diaper bag or purse every time we go out and it nearly always comes to my aid. Our other grocery bags aren't as cool--one even says "Colgate".
