Climate Change Pow Wow at the local Petstore today

I could not help but overhear snippits of conversation from three Petco Employees as I picked up cat food this evening.  And I had to get cat food, as I had left home with less than a borrowed bowl from the neighbor in the cats dish.  Cats do not take these things lightly. 


But I digress, the employees were college age, two males and one female.  The woman was talking about climate change and both gentlemen had what sounded like intelligent questions to ask her about this.  


I overheard only a little, but did hear something to the effect " we should be having an ice age right now, but we are not,  due to what we have done to the planet, so once all the ice caps melt.....the oceans may overflow and not any decent living conditions to be found. 


I was really more focused on getting the best buy on the "golden" cat food I buy to keep my cats their healthiest, so I likely did not hear everything correctly. 


And I do realize now as I write this that young people of that age and not yet spoken for often talk to one another because they are interested in each other, in learning something that will help them navigate in life, and in the future.   At least that is the way it should be. 


The links at the bottom of this post are about climate change and ocean pollution.  


Please comment and share on this blog post what you know and think is important on this topic.  Are we able to live sustainably on earth, and in space?  Has mankind started on the way?  Is it already to late, and if so, should we do nothing about that? 


What can be done today?   I heard there is a swirling pool of pollution floating in the ocean larger than the state of Texas. Myth or Truth?   Can we manage to get around that or do we need to work through it best we can?

Haircuts on Wheels-mobile hair cutting service for Lacey, Olympia, and Tumwater


Haircuts on Wheels
Craig Conway
(360) 701-2129

Mobile Hair Cutting Service in the Lacey, Olympia, and Tumwater area.

This guy has been cutting our families hair since my oldest kid was 2 years old.  I had gotten to the point of trying to cut my toddlers hair while he ate ice cream and I was still losing the battle. And then there was "the incident" when my middle son said I cut his ear, and he often reminds me of it, just about every time we get haircuts.

 Getting everyone into the beauty shop for hair cuts when you are a new mom with a full time job is not an easy task.  

Craig came and charmed the kids, gave us all excellent haircuts and has been doing it ever since then.  
He no longer keeps candy in the kit for them, or has them hold the hair whisk, as the boys stand a head taller than the rest of us.  He has made haircuts a calming and connecting time over the years, and we often have a former room mate join on haircut night for his trim.  
  
Craig  happens to cuts hair for a couple of  people in our neighborhood, our pediatrician, and who knows for how many other people in town.  

He has a shop and can do all the modern styles as well as perms.  Mostly he drives to your office or home on your schedule and does a professional haircut with cleanup.   


Do you know Craig? 
What haircuts on wheels stories do you have to share? 

School starts next week, do you all need haircuts soon? Might want to give Craig a call and take care of that soon, with a smile.
