Always questioning myself

Today I am late on what I had hoped would be an every morning adventure of journaling.
My middle son has been home sick, as he sits on my desk as I write this. The electricians picked today to come finish rewiring our seventy seven year old home. So today it has been hard to get to my computer.
Yesterday I was pondering how to go about doing this so I would have a good journal when a year was up. Do I make categories, free-verse, etc cc...... Then I was pondering how to go about this with out offending anyone. One of my faults as a codependent. I realize just to write publicly everyday is a bit of a risk. Not everyone will agree with me and I think at thirty-six I feel adult enough to deal with that, maybe.

Americans and persons abroad are finally waking up to see how we are damaging our world. Some people complain and others say they only want to look at solutions and be positive. My attitude changes everyday. Some days quite frankly I am ticked off at this administration and the the people who say this is a cycle. Every notable scientist on this subject agrees that this is caused by humans and we have a short time to correct it. You can already see changes happening in our world and in you own backyard. We had flowers blooming around Christmas, tell me that's not weird.
Other days I am more about the solution and my codependent nature takes over and cowers at confrontation.
On that note: My three tips for the day:

Frugality: The front & back of the sell ads in your mid week paper have your loss leaders (the best deals) if you can have an iron will and only buy these in each store in your area you can save a lot of money. I plan to stop in when I am in the area: not make special trips. For instance this week Harvest Foods had gallons of milk on for $2.50 each, normally these are as much as $3.39. I saved $.89 per gallon and I went twice and purchased 5 each (I have four kids). This saved me $8.90. I purchased other sell items at two other stores also and we ate meals around these items.
My kids may drink more water next month.

Environmental:
Something everyone can do today is go around your house and turn off the lights, except for what you need. Turn the air up to as close to 78 as you can stand it and turn on your ceiling fans.
Then hang a load of laundry. Don't have a close line? Use your shower rod. You can put the dry clothes in the drier for 5 minutes to soften.

Family:
In stead of sitting on the couch watching t.v. take a walk tonight after dinner. Have your kids or your spouse help you clean up the house for 10 to 30 minutes when you get back. Working together you can accomplish a lot. Kids feel better about themselves when they contribute and can see that they make a difference. Give lots of praise to your kids (even if they don't do the house work to your standards) this makes them feel proud< this works good on husbands too.

Namaste"
