My First Set of 7
(click to enlarge)
So, this is my first weekly 7. The books are all (but 2) texts from a Shoah literature class I took (the other 2 are from other classes). The last item (bottom right) is a pony-tail thingamajig. It flips your ponytail to make it look a little fancier (hard to explain). But it’s totally not needed, the same thing can be done by hand. I haven’t even used it in…well, I don’t know when I last used it. It’s going in the family donation box. The books are going to be given to the local library (which is, wonderfully, a block away).
Wow, I mean really, WOW
Earthchick has a blog called The Seven Things Project. For one year Earthchick got rid of 7 possessions a week. Now that’s an example I want to follow! Read the description of her project in her own words. It seems she’s continuing well past the one year mark as well. And why not? If everyone donated or recycled 7 items a week I think it’d be easier for us to conquer materialism, and help those who have little or nothing at the same time. Earthchick invites everyone to follow in her footsteps so…here I go! And I hope you will too. And like Earthchick I’ll try to post pictures of my 7 each week.
