Skipped Earth Day


i love pauly shore. don't ask me why cuz i can't explain it.
I rarely know what the date is anymore. i just know that sarah has a short day or long day, someone needs a babysitter on a certain day etc. ask me the specific date and i draw a blank. so naturally i missed earth day in the worldy sense but honestly earth day is everyday for me. i don't have a car so we walk to school and to friends houses, to the park or play on our field, pick slugs off our plants, reuse our bags, seperate the papers etc. really if you do it everyday then we really wouldn't need a holiday on our calendars to remind us to love our planet and take care of it. the same with other holidays like veterns day, memorial day, secretaries day, mother/father's day etc. if we recognized them on a daily basis, didn't have wars or whatever then we wouldn't need to set aside a day and only think of them once a day. so in essence i didn't forget earth day. pat on the back to myself. don't forget the 3 r's. Reduce Reuse Recylce- daily.
you don't need to be a tree hugging, hippie loving, tye-dyed, shower skipping, mountain climbing, dead head, trader joe, whole foods, granola eating goof ball to appreciate God's creations.
what i did do on Earth Day was watch Bio Dome.

You're awesome! I'm getting better at all the Earth Day stuff. It's nice to know we can do that and still be "normal" (whatever that is).
