Some days I know I will think little about the steps I want to take and other days like today I will have so many options that I may be in danger of doing nothing. I need to make a list and work it thru sensibly but I hate lists. I work on the principle that if I cannot remember it then it isn't worth it. Maybe, and it is only a maybe, I need to rethink this.
So at church this morning we heard some great stuff on stewardship. I liked that a lot and was in danger of amening out loud! We do not own, we are entrusted to care for our resources, our planet and such. Stewardship so fits with my faith. I need to be adding something to the title bar of this blog.............? Needs more thought.
Then I read some info sent thru with my recycle bins schedule. I can cut down on unwanted mail in two or three ways. Yep, need to. Then there was a section on love food hate waste. The average family in Scotland waste 610 pounds (yep money not weight) a year. How can we justify that when 35,000 kids die each day from preventable diseases. It makes me physically hurt. This house needs to move to be waste free. www.wasteawarelovefood.org.uk was recommended. Need to check it out.
And there is the site that Beth recommended in her comment. I have checked this out and her Mum's site. In fact that is really what gave me the kick into this but that is the story for another day.
But the highlight of our day was that we had four butterfly births today. Our kids were very excited. Auntie Susan had bought us the Butterfly garden kit and we have watched and cared for our wee catterpillars for four weeks now. What a journey and what a thrilling outcome! And yes there is something about them not flying free but we will let then go. Please can we have a warm sunny day?

Really glad you have started this - we will be avid readers!!
Hooray... four new lives emerge! My 6 year old niece was explaining the function of a chrysalis to me two days ago and it was the closest I've come to a religious experience in quite some time. Amazing stuff just under our noses.
