Giving Myself a Little Grace on my Zero Waste-ish Month
The plastic wrap might not have been used this month but my goodness the plastic that came into our house this past week is INSANE!

What Do I Miss Now After KonMari?

An Interruption From My 2020 Theme
Our whole world has been turned upside down in some form or other within what felt like two days. My personal emotions are all over place.

Less Plastic, Less Waste, Less Drama
March started with my 2020 micro Slow theme of Zero Waste-ish. I actually declared a zero waste-ish month without giving Mr. BMM a heads up. Why? It’s my goal. Not his goal.
