Go Green! This is something that I have not done very well. I was really never conscious about it. Since I have moved to California, I have noticed that all around me, people are going green. And now it is becoming a trend that is sweeping the nation. I have been trying to do better on going green. Every Sunday, Raul and I go to the farmer's market and the grocery store and instead of getting plastic bags we use reusable bags. I just got a really cute red canvas from Trader Joe's for my birthday. We have a recycle trash can but I have not been very good about recycling. Our house is really small and we have to put the regular trash on top of the dryer because our little Wilson loves garbage. That leaves no room for an extra trash can. I try on the weekends to get a paper bag out and put recyclables in it but that is the only time I recycle at home. Does anyone else have any go green suggestions? I just feel like I am not doing enough for the environment.

Yeah, I would love to buy a camera for my girls weekend...and I have thought about it, but my pants are either too big, too small, or holes in the crotch...I think I need clothes more!!! And about going green, I heard someone talking on some show about the reusable bags(I have a few), but he brought up a good point...he said, "Plastic bags are made in the US, most like the reusable ones are not...I will stick with plastic." I am all about using stuff made in the U.S. About recycling, we used to drink so many energy drinks that we finally got a garbage bag and left it outside and just threw the cans in that. AND even when I was walking with my kids if I saw a can I would pick it up and take it home for the recycle bag. I think we only took the cans in once a month or every other month..I say any little bit of recycling helps.
Since it never rains here, you could keep your recycling container outside.

it is pretty darn insightful.
Lil Sparky is doing fabulous... except we are having a hard time breaking him from peeing/pooping in the house. HELP!!!! We seriously stand outside for like 10 minutes and as soon as we step inside.. he pees. We know that as soon as he wakes up, he has to pee and that after he eats he has to poop. We are catching on to his ways, but we are getting so frustrated. We have moved tiling our house to the top of the list because of it! haha! Anyway... any advice will be helpful. My husband will thank you tons for it. He is the one that gets frustrated most. Gotta love him!
