August Happiness Challenge – Day 7

 

My 2026 Happiness Icon

Today's Happiness: A new way to recycle. Today for the first time I returned a sack of plastic stuff to Ridwell. It contained bubble wrap and padded envelopes and the thin plastic wrapper that went around my paper towels and ... and ... and ... These are all items that can't be recycled (at least not around here) and would end up in the landfill. But now it will be reused, turned into trash can liners and material to make decks and outdoor furniture.
 
I think of my14-month-old little grandniece Violet and the world I want her to have. Being more responsible to the planet makes me happy. 
  
Happy August Happiness Challenge!
 
Each day in August you are to post about something that makes *you* happy. Pretty simple. And, it doesn't even have to be every day if you don't want it to be. It's a great way to remind ourselves that there are positive things going on in our lives, our communities, and the world.
