I want to bake a really great brownie. Actually, I want to bake several really great brownies. I want to become known as the brownie girl at family gatherings. My claim to fame. It’s a modest goal.

Okay. I admit it. I don’t recycle much. I throw alot of stuff out. I watched Al Gore’s movie and it freaked me out but I’m really lazy. I drink at least 2 bottles of water every day at work and since there isn’t a recycling center at work, I throw those bottles out. My daughter will be living on top of those thrown out, unrecycled plastic bottles 20 years from now. I ought to just save them so she can use them for building materials since there won’t be any trees left. Not that it matters much because I live by the shoreline and there won’t be any land left after the glaciers melt and the sealevel rises.

So…okay… baby steps. I need to start recycling those water bottles. Or bringing a re-usable water bottle and just re-filling it.

I have always believed that education is the key to the world. And for some reason, I just want to start a scholarship. I’ve been thinking about doing this for about two years now but couldn’t figure out what kind of scholarship to start or what my goal was. I figured it out a couple months ago. I have a special needs child and I thought it would be so cool to start a scholarship for graduating seniors who have special needs or are in special education. I’v been to those scholarship awards nights and the same kids keep getting honored over and over. I want to honor someone people don’t think about. Someone who has to work a little harder to get to the same place. This is my goal. Now, I have to stop thinking and start doing.
