No Power

Well our power is out so I have nothing to do but sit here and type up a blog post…of course I can’t actually post the post until we have power…so for now its just in word ☺
So I actually have some time where I have nothing to do…let me rephrase that…I have a lot to do but I cant do anything!!! How did people live without electricity?!? Anyway…. Will Someone PLEASE tell me what it is with people littering!?!?! Since we were without power and nothing to do Joe and I decided to run to Sonic and get some drinks and some fresh air (he hasn’t been feeling well today), and while we are sitting there I watched as the guy in the back seat of a pick-up reaches around the front seat and throws him hamburger wrapper out the front window!? All I could think was what the h***!?!?! I mean it wasn’t like opps…didn’t mean to drop that…it was…hhmm…I don’t want to hold on to this and put it in the trash later…Hey that area right outside the window looks like a pretty good trash can! What would Confucius say if he saw how we treat Mother Nature?! Think of the most beautiful picturesque site you can imagine and then throw some trash in there….not as pretty anymore huh!? I know a lot of people probably think the Sonic workers will put it up…but first off really don’t you think they job is crappy enough? And sometimes they cant get the trash on a windy day. As Joe was driving down Clarksville the other day the driver of the car in front of him threw a diaper out the window. A Diaper!?!?! Yes a diaper!! Where they changing the kid now...or how long did that dirty thing sit in the car that they didn’t have the opportunity to throw it in a trash can earlier? Joe and I have been watching a show called Survivor Man where the guy. …can’t remember his name, I think its Les….anyways Les strands himself and tries to survivor for 7 days completely alone….and this guy finds litter in some pretty remote areas, such as deserted islands. And I cant tell you how many times I’ve picked trash out of David & Judy’s (Joe’s parents) yard and I know Larr & Christi get a lot of trash thrown in the yard too! So if anyone reading this post litters…Just stop it! ;) No really…if you’re in your car and you don’t know what else to do with your trash…throw it in the floorboard call me and I’ll come dispose of it properly for you. :D
But really in all seriousness don’t we owe it to Mother Nature to take a little better care of her? I don’t know about you but I don’t want my children playing in the park with trash all around. I want to see my grandchildren run through Bywaters and not have to think about the litter lying around them.
