Nothing political cuz I am worn out by it all...

I know, I promised to write yesterday and didn't! We went to a movie which cut into my blogging time (that's the story and I am sticking to it!).

Went to see "The Secret Life of Bees"--very good movie. Kind of Huckleberry Fin-like and very eerie to see Dakota Fanning growing up!

Love the weather--it is great to get up and throw a sweatshirt on before walking the dog!

It's amazing (and sad) to see how much litter is in on the streets at any given time. We take an extra bag on our walks and fill up a plastic grocery bag almost every time...many people have become zombies to what is around them.

The good thing about our morning walks is encountering the same 4 cats who actually run up to great us--Zach wants to play and sniff butts but that isn't going to happen! Also, we are on the same walking schedule as a lady who is out for her morning walk. She is always carrying at least 2 bags but takes the time to stop and give Zach a kiss--at least she hasn't become a zombie!

we were watching Mad Men a few weeks ago and there was a segment in which the main characters family went on a picnic. when they were done the mom picked up the blanket and shook it out. all the litter, leftovers and whatnot landed on the ground. she folded up the blanket, picked up the basket and they left. unfortunately that is the way it actually was "way back then." and more unfortunate, is that the mindset still remains with some. we always pick up the trash at the park when we take little G for her frisbee time.

I just came back from a walk, didn't even make it around the block, and my grocery back was too full to go on! Yikes...what has made people so unaware and irresponsible??
