Looking for a new design.....

.....any recommendations?

I just received word that I'm losing my free template, but I guess it's been awhile and this blog needs a new outfit. Does anyone know a good blog designer?

Please hang in there with me as I try on some new threads.....

Here it is - The Story of Solutions


I'm a week late with this, but here it is - Annie Leonard's 9 minute follow up to The Story of Stuff

The Story of Solutions



What I really like about Annie Leonard is that instead of pointing a finger at factories or governments, she's helping us take a closer look at our daily choices. It's not really about Walmart bags......

What changes have you made recently? Do you reuse things that make people think you are weird?  I remember being told I needed to buy some Tupperware when I was eating lunch out of a "repurposed" cottage cheese container.... That was ten years ago - does that make me a hipster? Reusing containers before it was cool???????

What happens when IBBUGGIN' tries to slay dragons....



waiting for the wrecker



Poor lil' IB came home on the back of a wrecker yesterday. Fortunately for me, I did too. 
 Sadly, as I was leaving campus last night, my car stalled. When I tried to restart it, it just kept cranking, but as I noticed the accelerator was stuck to the floor someone walked up and said, "Hey, your car is smoking - it's on fire!" So sad to stand there and watch my fun little car burn. A couple guys got fire extinguishers and put it out and the firetrucks came and cleaned up all the fuel it had leaked.
some days the dragon wins....

 Such a bummer.............
