    Today is Earth Day 4/22/2008

    Yesterday I bought some canvas totes for my groceries to use from now on instead of plastic or paper. :) Big Woo huh? :D
    Planting a tree would have been so much better. :eek: The totes were $1.00 ea.
    I'm sure a tree would coast much more.

    I plant way too many trees. :D

    I can't say I did anything for earth day. :eek:

    I do buy those dumb *** lightbulbs that I hate though since they are supposed to be more energy efficient.

    I planted some Heathers and some Lavender, then went for it big-time by planting my newly acquired Japanese Cherry Blossom tree :) and managed to get a splinter jammed embedded under my nail :cry

    There's no such thing as too many trees.

    Ouch, we expect pictures, the plantings not your finger.

    Grilled beef on the grill, drank a wine imported from France and accelerated rapidly in my hoptie every chance I got today! I planted some doubt in one persons head today. I went international...

    When China and other 3 world polluters go green, I will consider changing my ways. :p

    Me too but heard they have mercury in them (all fluorescents do) so don't break em, right huh? I can just imagine a whole new bunch of problems from those now. A while back they were trying to get them out of schools and work places, not good you you :(

    To be perfectly honest, they're going to start charging for bags 15 to 25 cents per bag, maybe thats only plastic I don't know. So $1.00 seemed a much better deal for the canvas ones, now to remember to take them in the store.

    Ok i admit a few times i've forgot my canvas bags which is really annoying having to pay 3p for a plastic one.
