Blogging to Stop

Good morning all,

With all I have going on in 
my life I have
decided to not blog anymore.


APRIL FOOLS!

Can't get rid of me that easy.

Driving home from feeding the 
other day I saw this site.


Isn't that so pretty?
  

After posting on FB and a friend
asking what this was called, another
friend jumped in and helped me 
with that question~
this is 
Nashville Mustard.
Apparently it does not grow in 
many areas but we are lucky
to have this site.

That beautiful yellow brings me
to the thought of plants.
Here are some cute planters
pulled from the internet.



I have done the one below before.



What is the law concerning 
plastic bags where you live?


In California or at least in 
San Diego area you pay extra
for a plastic bag if you don't have
your own totes. 

Here in TN there is a debate on how
to handle the bags.
Shall the cities be in charge
or the state?
Personally, I think state.
If the cities handle the plastic
bag debate then it might vary in 
each city. But if the state handles
it they can ban these in the whole
state. No questions as to use in 
different areas.

This also brings me to my next
question~
do you recycle?

I am glad you aren't leaving us Pam! The Nashville Mustard is stunning! I will have to show the cement hands idea to my husband. They make cool planters. We have been thinking about stacked pots for herbs.

I have to look up the plastic bag laws since we live in a new state now. There are plastic bags everywhere here though so I think they are behind on this. Recycling is included every other week with our trash pickup. We also use a composting barrel for all our food scraps. The plants love that!

We have to recycle in my city. Garbage is picked up every 2nd week, recycle and compostables every week. Good April Fool's trick!

My first April Fool of the day. Glad is wasn't true.

You can still get plastic bags here if you pay for them. We don't use them. We have cloth bags that we use for our purchases. It's a better way.

Yes we recycle.

Have a fabulous day. ♥

Actually, my state of New York, actually is going to do something wise, for a change. Ban plastic grocery bags!

The capital and down state (NYC), are wildly Liberal and are always making "winky-wonky" laws and rules and etc. But this time, they got it right!!!!

I loath plastic bags. Prefer paper. Prefer mostly, to bring my own bags! Duhhhhhh.....

Our plastic bags at the market are still free, which makes it really easy to forget to bring your own bags. While it's convenient and I certainly use them more than once to hold returnables and cat litter and such, I sort of wish we had to pay for them and I might be more diligent.

We went to our recycling plant a few weeks back, very impressive. Almost everything is recyclable. Our rubbish is almost non-existent. France has banned all plastic that is not recyclable eg plates etc. We have always had to take our own bags shopping here since the day we moved to France in 2005, presumably it was the same for a number of years before that.
Happy recycling Diane

Here in Pennsylvania we still use plastic bags

It's a plastic bag ban for all of California. My city (Long Beach) did the ban a couple years earlier than the whole state, so when it went to the whole state, I was already in the habit of bringing my own bags. Actually, I had started doing that a couple years prior to the law. It's irksome, but you get used to it.

:) Very funny. I use cloth bags for shopping here when possible.

I didn't know CA (or any state) had laws about plastic bags...but I sure think it's a good idea. I gather up all ours & then return to a recycling bin at WalMart since we don't have recycling in our small town (unfortunately). I would really like to recycle but would have to save it all up and then make a trip to a bigger town/city...guess I'm too lazy for that! So sad that all communities don't offer a way to recycle. Your post does remind me though to use some of these reusable shopping bags I have around here.

I was sitting here reading and thinking to myself Noooooo Pam is quiting blogging?! I'm glad this was only an April fools joke! Wishing you a wonderful April Pam!

That's a good April Fool's joke, Pam. Yes, here in California, we have to pay a dime for bags now. I don't like it. I don't recycle, but was just talking with my son and he knows a guy who recycles and makes a lot of money each month by doing so.

I hope you are feeling well, Pam.

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...

Coffee Table Redo

Image
Morning all. Couple weeks ago I found this at a neighbors home put out on the side of the  road. Loaded it up in my Prius. It was heavy and LONG.  Standing it up next to me it comes to my shoulders and I am 5'2. My daughter Amber had told me just that week that she needed a coffee table. I think it was meant to be! Basic maple with a traditional  look and a formica top. that you can't do much with. So after checking with my daughter to be sure size would not be a problem I got to work. I built a frame. My thoughts were that if I made a frame and attached wood to that I could slip it right over the top of the existing table top.  Oops....forgot a step... before making the frame I spray painted the base in an ivory color.  Now with that step added in I  move on to what it looks like with the wood attached  to my frame. It slipped right over the top ...

Another Chilling Day - Brothers HOuse

House/dog/bird sitting at my brothers house.  Of course this was Lily's first trip there. Dakota  has house sat with me many times.  Lily was not too sure what to think about Ms. Lola. She loves the ledge at the large windows! My brother has some really pretty sunflowers.....all about to give it up for the summer. Wasp drinking from the hummingbird feeder. Just wondering if these are hot... haha...I will pass on trying them  out though. Bell pepper hiding from  view. Check out the spider web. Loving this shot with the barn in the  background.  This is a form of a bush called Datura stramonium ,  known by the  English names   jimsonweed  or  Devil's snare , the seed pod.  Lily pads. Another bell pepper. Hovering over the pond. My sis in law has been canning.  Messi...
