I stand in front of the cashier at the Harris Teeter, and as I finish paying she looks at me and says, “Is plastic all right?”
Ahhhhh! “No, plastic isn’t alright”, I think to myself, “That’s why I bought all those reusable grocery bags. Except that I forgot them. Again.”
I stand there feeling like I’ve failed. Failed at being a good homemaker. Failed at being organized. Failed at being a good steward of our earth.
Whether it’s reusable bags or cloth diaper or organic meat or all-natural shampoo, I am to the point where I want to just close my eyes, put my fingers in my ears, bury my head, and start singing, “La, la, la, la, la, la”, every time I read some new way that I can be healthier or keep our environment healthier.
Today I am sharing more about my burden in Martha’s Next Plight: Going Green over at Intentional by Grace. Please join me there?
