Thirtydays

Trash less continued

It’s already the 23rd of September and I havent blogged my next thirtydays 😲 oh well, better late than never lol.

This thirtydays ended up being a continuation of last month. We went camping at Loon Lake the 6th thru the 12th and I really dedicated myself to reducing waste on that trip. No paper plates, paper towels or plastic silverware. I brought my un-paper towels. I had already purchased dishes and silverware for the camper. I pre-cooked dinners and put them into reusable containers. I used my orange juice containers and filled them with filtered water for us and the dogs. We ended up with only one small garbage can of trash at the end of the week so I think it was a success.

Twice I went to the grocery store and forgot my bags in the car. I did not allow myself the luxury of purchasing a store bag. The first one I asked the clerk to set the items at the end of her counter and I would come right back in and bag them up. Luckily there was no one in line after me. She did give me a look though 😂 the second store I didn’t purchase that many items so I did a balancing act on the way out of the store lol. It was quite a sight.

I am confident I can stick to this one.

  1. Your not counting the bag of your seltzer’s. lol. But, now that you mention it. There was barely a full small kitchen bag of garbage. Did you count how many of them little rags things you put in dryer? I bet that thing ate several.

  2. Steve and I spent our first anniversary at Loon Lake in BC (40 years ago). Hey, I bought reusable zip lock storage bags, reusable grocery bags, a really nifty item from Amazon to organize and hang the reusable zip lock bags on the refrigerator door. You have made a difference. I’m really watching out for biodegradable products. Thanks
