day on, day off.. 3 months ago

getting better at this! Need to make it an everyday thing though! and remember that if I go to OTHER store other than the grocery store.. I still need to grab the bags!

don’t know where the last two entries on this went…:(



Found some of em! 6 months ago

gonna get them cleaned up and see if I can get back on track:)



Still sucking at this goal. 10 months ago

I purchased over 10 bags for this goal and now I don’t even know where they are! I don’t know what keeps me from accomplishing this goal.. maybe because we are always switching vehicles.. maybe it is cause I shop soooo much and 10 bags a day really isn’t enough..maybe it is because when I go to the store I use the self check out lane and the bages weight throw off the scales and set the alarm ringing for the teller to come help me. I don’t know – I just have to find the bags now and see if I can try to get it together.



wow am I ever sucking at this goal... 13 months ago

I can’t seem to remember to bring my bags! It is funny… I do so much for the environment, even the really icky stuff like having a sawdust toilet lol but something so simple like remebering to bring 10 beautiful black cloth bags.. I am hopeless! :) I need to find a way to remember this little detail so I can get this goal completed and do my part;)



finally bought some bags! 23 months ago

Yeah!! I finally bought some bags and I was so excited about it.. but you know what? 10 bags isn’t enough! How lame is that? I run a cafe during the week and during thursday, friday nights and weekends run a concession at teh local ski hill .. so needless to say I shop ALOT every day , sometimes 4 times a day, but during my daily big shop for fresh veggies and meats, I just don’t have enough bags.. so here I am stiff having to use some plastic.. I have to get this done! ggrr!!



ok now.. 1 year ago

this shouldn’t be taking as long as it is:( though it is hard when I shop so many times in a day between the house and the cafe…. I gotta get on this ASAP!



I have wanted 2 years ago

to sew my own bags for the longest time, something funky and sturdy. However I am finding with so much on my place and so many projects already on the go I am probably better off just buying bags, I mean after all, at the local Safeway they are on .99 cents each.. heck I prolly couldn’t make em for that! Then in time I could probably go ahead and do some funky designs on them or something;)
