Happy Earth Hour 2009

Did you do it? You know, turn your lights off for an hour at 8:30PM?
Laura had to remind me a few times, but at promptly 8:30, I stopped what I was doing, turned the computer off and went around the entire house and turned everything else off. It was liberating.
Laura already had the candles lit and spread out all over the place. I decided that even though it was 60 degrees outside, a nice fire in the fireplace would really set the tone. I got a nice one going and we just lay on the floor talking until about 5 minutes ago.
Fire in the fireplace
At around 9PM, I said, “You know, I am really starting to like celebrating small events. We have our reality shows, our walks and now this type of thing.”
This stuff is fun for me and better than that, it keeps me looking forward to so many things so much of the time.
Happy Earth Hour 2009.

Oh yeah, Jay! It’s the little things like that – when you slow down and enjoy. Totally.

Excellent picture my friend! I shut my lights off too. My 3 year old daughter that it was the coolest thing.
