Our planet's alarm is going off, and it is time to wake up and take action!
RECAP OF THE SILENT KILLER - POLLUTION Hello Sunday, It’s the last Sunday in August, much happiness from both Dan and Sherry. Dan and I walk around our neighborhood and realize how important our environment is to us. We often take things for granted and forget the importance of what the environment includes. Since May 24th, I have been blogging on something we all take for granted and will eventually this issue will kill you. In researching pollution, Dan and I have realized

Our ability to handle life's challenges is a measure of our strength of character.
CORONA VIRUS AND PLASTIC POLLUTION Hello Saturday, You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage. Instead, it's important for you to understand that your experience facing and overcoming adversity is actually one of your biggest advantages. Challenges come to us to make us better, not bitter. There is wisdom in challenges, you must look for them. Challenges can make you or break you. When an unanticipated situation occurs and catches you by shock, see it as a learni

Accomplishments give you a sense of confidence and encouragement.
Bisphenol A (BPA) is deadly Hello Friday, Wow, I can’t believe its Friday again. It’s hard to believe that a whole week has gone by and the week end is approaching us again. Yesterday, we stepped out of our comfort zone for the second time since we got back from Mexico. Dan had to get some prescription medicine filled. He had joined the prescription group with Kroger, so we walked about a mile to go to pick them up. While we were walking, since it was so hot; like before the

Our choices determine our destiny.
CORONA VIRUS AND PLASTIC POLLUTION Hello Thursday, Dan and I were discussing the other day, where has August gone. It seems like it just flew on by. Wait, wasn’t it just March? I do not know about you, but I think the corona virus just hijacked us for most of this year. Time can be an ally or an enemy. What it becomes depends entirely upon you, your goals, and your determination to use every available minute. A person can have many dreams and aspirations in life. In order to

To be prepared against surprise is to be trained. To be prepared for surprise is to be educated.
CONTINUING ON CORONA VIRUS AND PLASTIC POLLUTION Hello Wednesday – Hump Day, Last week Dan and I ordered on line from Kroger, like every week. The order most of the time comes within two hours after the shopper shops. I usually receive a text, when they can not find the product I had ordered, which then I would have to find a substitute for. This shopper last week did not ask me, just replaced on his/her own. When asked, he/she stated that they know by my comments. When recei

It is better not to express what one means than to express what one does not mean.
CONTINUING ON CORONA VIRUS AND PLASTIC POLLUTION Hello Tuesday, Good day everyone, it’s the last full week of August. Did we have fun this month? We all feel the pressures to conform throughout our lives — to the expectations, values or worldviews of others, be it in our intimate circles or in society at large. In the short run, it can seem the easy way out to simply bend to the opinions of others in our pursuits of intimacy, acceptance and achievement. It’s only in the long

Listening happens to be a key strength of good communicators.
PLASTIC POLLUTION Good morning Monday, Dan and I are getting back slowly to sociability by going to our favorite coffee shop on our walks. We bring our spray and spray down the seats and ourselves (BRIOTECH). I keep our masks in my purse, if needed, along with gloves. Dan and I also stay social distanced and sit outside. For now, this will be the new norm! Since Dan’s treatments in Mexico, we have been in airports, public bathrooms, in restaurants, hotel and clinic; with all

The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, but for the wide world's joy
LIGHT POLLUTION (artificial light) Good day Sunday, Who doesn’t love sunshine? While we bask in its rays at the park or going to the beach, it’s easy to forget the sun is actually a giant, scorching hot star. Without it, earthlings would face eternal night and certain doom. Don’t take the warmth for granted. Nevertheless, sunshine 15 minutes is very healthy for you. Dan and I take walks daily and enjoy some sunshine with the wind blowing across our faces. The sun is the most

Say no to noise pollution.
Well, its Saturday, Each morning when I open my eyes, I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make myself happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. As Dan and I regroup from our stay in Mexico, we are taking each day as it comes. Enjoying the time with each hour is priceless. Being happy is one of life’s lofty, and often elusive goals. We search
