It's Not Easy Being Green

1) The grocery store ONLY carries paper bags!

2) The barristas at Starbucks can never remember that my travel mug is a "grande."

3) The organic milk on the shelf at Trader Joe's expires in less than a week.

4) My CSA box has too many green, leafy veggies. More apples, please!

iProblems

Yes, we do have real problems in this current economy.  Some of us cannot find a job. Others struggle to make ends meet, as housing costs increase. I, for one, am not looking forward to the pink slip that I know will come each Spring for the next few years.  These little tidbits, though, can help us to remember all of things for which we can be grateful. Plus, I like making fun of myself every once in a while. Don't you?

Today's Middle Class Problem:

I dropped my iPhone in the toilet.  Now, I have to decide whether to get the white one or the black one to replace it.

You know you've got issues...

To get us off on the right track here...


1. Right after Christmas, the hubs and I had two iPads, a Nook, and a Kindle. Too many consumer electronics? Middle class problem.


2. My recently remodeled rental house was built in 1941 and has closets too small for my wardrobe. Middle class problem.


3. The wifi in my house was moving too slowly for me to pin something to Pinterest from my iPad. Middle class problem.
