Sometimes we need to find extra funds when big bills are due but often it is needed just to make ends meet. Before you can even start to think about how you would go about greening your wardrobe, you need to know where you stand, clothes wise, right now at this moment. Maybe you could organize a clothes swap amongst your friends.

When you can reuse or re-purpose an item, you are not only saving it from the landfills, but you are also saving the expense and energy which would have been expended when you recycle. I cut a heavy blue plastic trash bag into triangles, stapled them over a rope and hung the rope across the driveway to block those drivers from using it.

Be ruthless in your decision-making process; if you haven’t used an item in the last year or it doesn’t hold significant sentimental value, it’s probably time to let it go. Use this time to visualize the final setup of your rooms, considering the flow of space and how you’ll use each area.

Since I already had some sandrete (a kind of cement I use to fill the lines in my brick sidewalk), I decided to wait on getting a kit and do a bit more research. Something to use to write messages on the wet cement. I used the sandrete I already had. Pretty things to embed in the wet cement.

Sayward was just a teen, but she took charge of preparing her mother’s body for burial – instructing her sisters to help her wash her mom’s body, clean the clothing to bury her in and sew a pillow to put under her head. A movement is afoot to re-learn how to take care of our own dead.

After 10 years raising kids, I decided to re-enter the workforce. This can be a good way to pick, as long as you ascertain that there are enough jobs in the field for you to successfully land one with the amount of education you have and that the jobs pay enough to meet your lifestyle needs. It didn’t.

No matter how much money we’re bringing in, just about all of us feel as if we could stand to cut down on our spending and put a little bit more money into our rainy day fund. Rather, it’s the little purchases that start to hurt us over time and prevent us from meeting our saving goals.

Switch to CFL bulbs - CFLs use up to 75% less energy (and last up to 10 times longer!) Use a power strip - Even when your electronics are off, they are still energy-suckers if they’re plugged in.

I used to think gardening was a really ridiculous form of exercise. I personally use my friend Sarah’s HIIT workout database.
