One of Those Days...

Where all you want to do is be by yourself but your house is full of people and work won't stop and you're tired of the world going to hell in a handbasket.

Things to do:

1. Take the One Tonne Challenge.

It's not that hard. But it is that hard.

2. Look what's happening to our glaciers. That's what useless driving and wasted energy is doing to the most beautiful places in Canada.

3. Use cold water to do your laundry. But you know, this begs the question that if it really doesn't make a difference, why do we need cold-specific laundry detergent? Is it better for the environment? Is it cleaner, use less fossil fuels? If it's always been more energy-efficient to use cold water, why are people just realizing it today?

4. Stop throwing away things. Use a broom, not a Swiffer. Buy a wooden cutting board, don't throw them away. Re-use your baggies, invest in Tupperware, eat your leftovers...oh, I could go on but I'm feeling like I'm lecturing, and no one wants to hear some cranky girl nag the general public on some stupid blog that no one's even reading.
