Theodore Roosevelt quote

I just read a quote from Theodore Roosevelt that I feel really pertains to what we are trying to accomplish with our green efforts.

"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."

A lot of us would love to do more if only we had more money, time, energy, and resources. But, we should all feel proud and very much a part of the change with everything we do, no matter how small the effort or result. Remember, the journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step!

I am now off to pull dandelions - not spray them!

I just love that quote, even more so in this context. It should almost be the motto for this blog! Thanks for sharing!

I really like that too. Reminds me of the thing I say to myself, "when you know better, you do better" Not sure who said that...

Welcome Visitors!

If you're reading for the first time, it may feel a bit like you've just walked into a conversation that has been going on for awhile.

So to catch you up...

Jennifer started this blog because she was going through the process of becoming more conscious of her lifestyle choices and had decided to "go green". As she talked to her friends she quickly realized that she was not the only one interested in making changes. The blog was born. We used this as a place to discuss things we've tried and to support each other in the journey.
