So I've been mulling over all the possibilities for the first change I will undertake come August 1st.
So many ideas, so many "obstacles."
I was seriously thinking of undertaking some personal care product change ... but the more I thought about that, the more I thought I should try the product first. I have this mental image of me making this change that creates this horrendous result - and I end up with 12 months of looking like a total freak! Some of that feeling is just a bit of nerves - you know, agreeing to a huge change for a whole year. No one likes change, right?
But actually, an even bigger reason for some of my resistance is the fact that I have a semi-decent stash of various products in my house already. The impetuous for this change was my Dr. Bronner's Soap relovation, and since then I have been seriously trying to use up product and not buy anything new.
Hmmmmm - maybe that should be my Aug. challenge: Not to buy any new personal care product until I have used up *ALL* the items I have stashed in the house currently. And then .... to only purchase ... what? Healthy products? Eco-Friendly products? Multi-use products? What really is my criteria? I'd better figure that one out, huh? But really, is that a change, and one that can be sustained for a whole year? I need new ideas.
Well, I only have a week or so left until August. I'd better get crackin'!

but uses a lot of plastic. So, I got myself this little Bear yogurt maker
that do...
