 Recommended Resource  Host Carol Hanson has a very interesting discussion with Thrift Plus on her Awesome Women Spotlight , covering how thrift stores are addressing the pile of used clothing being sent to landfills or incinerators.   I remember when my mom would get plus-sized clothing from the thrift stores and use the material to make new clothes, aprons, rugs, blankets or whatever she needed. She, too, used her quilting craft for a family legacy.  She made a quilt for my brother to celebrate his travels and stories he shared with her. She did one for a few of her grandkids too, before she became too ill (she passed in 2010).  There's an amazing thrift store locally who give household and clothing items to anyone in dire straits, such as those running from an unsafe home or their house burned down or some other disaster.

How I started blogging

How I Started Blogging  While managing a blog may not fit every single business strategy, they can be used in such a diverse number of ways that businesses should never overlook the value of having their own blog. Unfortunately, blogs have the reputation of being a time-consuming activity - and they can be, depending on how you decide to run your blog. How often new posts go up is really up to the individual and because of this flexibility, blogging can be very do-able for most businesses. Blog posts, for instance, might only go live when the business has something to announce. Others may decide to post monthly, biweekly or twice a week. Initially, I started blogging back in 2004 in order to help promote our business, with Dave providing the graphics, imagery and ads. Over time, my passion for blogging grew exponentially; the simple act of sharing information that has a very good chance of influencing positive change in the world... That is an incredible feeling!
