when it occurred to me that I was doing the very thing that I can do to help. I can run.

Please consider this challenge to raise funds for Haiti. A fund for Catholic Relief Services has been created. I invite you to run too! You can join Running For Haiti as a runner, send out your own invites to your own friends and family and send your funds through the same foundation. More information will follow soon!

Just thinking

I bought an interesting book called Change the World for Ten Bucks. It was put together by a nonprofit movement called We Are What We Do. They have a website: www.wearewhatwe do.org. I don't claim to know everything about them; you can check them out, but I like some of their stuff. Like this:

"A TV that's plugged in is still using half the electricity of a TV that's turned on. ...unplug appliances or use a power strip with a switch to shut off the flow of electricity (sic)." That's easy!

(5 miles)
