I’ve lost my blogging groove so I’m going back to the basics with NaBloPoMo (National Blog Post Month) a daily writing exercise organized by BlogHer. They have a theme “Fall” and provide daily prompts, but I can write about whatever I choose. But fall is so much more than a season. We’re talking about falling […]
Today is the final day of my month long odyssey, National Blog Post Month. My goal was to post every day for the month of January. Success! It is great to meet a goal. Energizing, even?
Wednesday, January 30, 2013 Benjamin Franklin said, “Energy and persistence conquer all things.” Do you agree or disagree? Second to last day in my month long journey. NaBloPoMo is up for February (love and sex) but I am going to take a break in part due to having some other tasks that need my attention […]

The uncreative parts of conservation involve changing our habits and following “best practices: Set the thermostat and do not “adjust” except in cases of true sickness. Because I work from home, we have two settings: 68 during the day/evening […]
What is your biggest concern about the future of the environment? My biggest concern is the fact that people ignore science. They don’t like the facts so they simply ignore them. This is a common human response to things we don’t want to hear or deal with – denial. But it is very powerful. Realistically, […]
That’s an excellent question. This is a nice summary. It is a real thing – a challenge to post fresh content each day for an entire month. No scheduling software, no backposting. It is held in November and started 13 years ago. NaBloPoMo has evolved (???) into a sort of free-for-all writing exercise. I’m participating […]
