wow, time flies, I can't believe I haven't written anything since the 8th. I have thought about it though.. usually in the shower, or right when I go to bed or when I am at the grocery store. :) I don't know how people blog every day. Today is the Rocklin swap- it's raining, but I think it's supposed to clear up later. We are doing a sports equipment section -if it's good, we will do it at the other swaps too. I LOVE doing these, and truly believe you can get pretty much everything you need from the swaps, and what you can't find here, you can find on Craigslist, freecycle or a consignment shop. Trust me, I am not cheap (my husband will confirm that) - I just love the idea of not buying new things when we don't have to! Why should we? That's just more stuff that goes to waste, and the last thing this world needs is more waste. If you have ever read my blog, you have heard me mention The Compact - we still live by this, trying to compact our lives, make it simpler and only buy the things we really need & when we do we buy them used and/or try to always buy local. I thought it would be fun to (for those of you who don't know I am pregnant) not buy anything new for this baby (i know ... HORRIBLE, how mean) I will write about what I buy and where & show that you really can get what you need from recycled resources - of course some things will need to be new, but I will go into that later. It will be fun, and I will write about it (obviously not every day - but more than once a month :)
So..more on that later, have to go to Rocklin now to get set up for today's swap!
Happy swapping!
