I love ice cream! We stopped by the ice store the other day, its one of my favorite places to go. I just love to walk around and see the different kinds there are. Rocky roads, chocolate chip, and peach are some of ones I usually get.

The problem is that there are too many kinds to choose from. I have trouble making up my mind! Each one looks so good. Lately, I’ve been trying to broaden my horizons and trying the ones I’ve never had. It’s a long process, but I think it will pay off in the end!

Music is one of my favorite pastimes. I enjoy listening to either the radio or my favorite CDs in my car and at work as well. I’m always on the lookout for new groups with a fresh angle. I guess the only way for me to find new music is to listen to different radio stations. There are almost no music stores left to go in and just browse through thousands of albums.

As I have been working on cleaning out the house and garage, I’ve had a number of things I wished to throw away. I did wonder what the implications would be for our earth. I went online to find out. I came up with a short list of things that need to be recycled or donated.

Batteries- In many cases, batteries can be taken back to a store such as Home Depot, Best Buy, or Radio Shack for recycling. It’s important to keep these out of the landfill.

Electronics- Most of the same stores listed above will also take back things like mobile phones. You can also search for places to take computers, televisions, and cameras.

Motor Oil- Most gas stations will take used motor oil as well stores like Wal-Mart, Jiffy Lube, and AutoZone.

Paint- you’ll need to research for a place to take paint. It is important to find somewhere to bring it for proper disposal. So keep trying!

CFLs- these old bulbs can usually be taken to stores like IKEA or Home Depot.

I hope everyone will make an effort to make sure these items are disposed of properly. We really need to start making a greater effort to keep our earth green!

My older sister Noreen called me the other day. She told me she was going out on a date. It seems that she has been going out on a lot of dates lately and I asked her where she was meeting all these guys. She told me about a website she found.

She really likes the site. She said she added her photos, joined in the chat room, and was sending emails and instant messages to the guys she liked. Since she is now single, she is taking full advantage of dating. Noreen has always been outgoing and fun. I know she’ll have a great time!
