Week 8 update will be delayed
Hi all,
For the first time, I missed my regular Monday blog update about our garbage project. Here it is 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday night and I’m so tired I could drop asleep right here. This entry serves to let all our readers know that, between moving this week and me starting work again, we are busy, stressed, and exhausted. Please be patient with us as we make it through this week and check in next Monday – Labor Day – for a complete update.
A couple teasers, though, before I sign off:
- Project has been so well received at school that, though I teach high school, my district’s elementary school 5th grade teachers are interested in me mentoring them in the process of making their classrooms trash free for a year!
- So far, the move hasn’t produced any garbage. Recycled boxes from Safeway, recycled tape, and packing paper are all we really have needed.
Have a good week! Please check back next week when week 8 and 9 and detailed much more thoroughly.
