Connect the Dots!
We are all one…understand the interconnection of all things…Chuang Tzu? or me? Well, this morning as I walked my li’l puddin’ Franny up the stairs to pre-school, we passed her little school chums: a butterfly…a princess… a dragon! Uh oh. Franny was sporting a boring striped tee and sequined denim…ON CARNIVAL DAY! Yikes! woops! I calmed her down when she realized my snafu, promised to bring back mermaid dress, cow costume, fairy wand and tiara and raced back home to get said items. Whew.
Zooming home, I tuned into an interview with a local advocate of old technology recycling, re-use and reduction. Thoughts of 2 broken printers, one old blue Mac, cameras, banged up vcr’s all stored in the basement came to mind. Resolution: must remember obscure-costume observant holidays for toddlers AND find responsible way to dispose of defunct, hazardous-waste-containing gadgets in home. With a little effort, I’ve found an organization in the Philadelphia area, that will pick up my parts to salvage, repair and refurbish in its efforts to provide computers to area non-profits and such. Marvelous!
Now, back to connecting the dots….my first client, a computer programmer, knows all about these programs - she excitedly filled me in on how she was involved, other organizations of interest, etc. Then she announced she was catching a flight tonight to, of all places, Rio! Makes you think.
