I'm a Mother, Wife & Nursing Student struggling to balance my life. I love my Family, Friends, my 3 Dogs (who are all Siberian Huskies or Husky mixes). I enjoy Gardening and making things Grow, Reading (all kinds of books) Yoga, Hiking, Camping, and drinking good wine (or cheap wine, for that matter) with Good Friends : )
See above : )
I'm figuring that out, but I do care about the enviornment, and how it's going to be for future generations. I encourage people to recycle, and frankly it's one of the easiest things to do for the environment, and it makes me so mad that people are too lazy or don't care enough to do it, when all it really entails is having a separate container for recyclables! Also, I like to Garden, and would like to start a Compost Pile, but I'm not sure if my township will allow it, so I have to find out. Also, I have to figure out a place for said compost pile to keep my crazy dogs away from it : )

Gardening, and growing some of my own vegetables....
Planting trees and more perennials this year....
Minimizing my purchase and consumption of processed, non-organic foods. Eating a largle vegetarian diet. Sorry, I can't give up fish, and the occasional red meat. Poultry, and the way it's raised makes me ill.
