QOTW: any special goals for this spring season?

[Guest guest]

The group questions of the week [qotw] for April 15th-21st are:

Do you have any special goals for this spring season?

[gardening, cleaning, dietary changes, weightloss, exercise,

simplifying, etc]

Also, this coming April 22nd is Earth Day! How do you plan to

make it memorable and/or keep the spirit of Earth Day alive

in your life throughout the year?

[Guest guest]

Our community has many activities planned for Earth Day so will be attending

those to show support and to get support. I do all that I can at this point

and under my particular circumstances to make as light a foot print on the

our planet Earth every day including my eating choices and the fact that I

grow organically probably at least 80% of my food and on less than 1/2 acre.

Being vegan makes it much easier to avoid the stores, the toxins in animals

and the killing of them. I try to think in terms of " is this really

necessary or just desired and for how long will it be desirable. " So I don't

buy, only the absolute necessaries...bras are still on my list of " is this

necessary? " LOL

 

No, no particular goals for this season beyond the normal. Get out of bed,

get my butt in gear. Just to keep learning about raising my own food and how

to preserve it, keeping things simple, but tell me what does this " cleaning "

thing refer too? Dietary changes? Keep it simple, pure and natural. I had

already found some personal care products some time ago that were animal

by-product free and not tested on animals. And so spent March finding

products that were also not made from synthetic ingredients and were

organic. That I have accomplished. Oh, wait, I do have a goal. To withdraw

from meaningless e-mail groups that absorb my time. I am one of those that

can't leave a post unopened and don't feel good until the box is cleared.

So, I have done that in the past few days. I am hoping that this group

provides recipes from individuals that are actually cooking them for normal

families instead of what I see a lot of where one person posts endless

recipes that aren't simple or inexpensive. I can find those on line at any

given time. I always get a chuckle when they say that they are cooking those

recipes...if they were at the rate they post them they would be unable to

get out of their chairs.
