This is what the kids woke up to Easter morning :)

I put in my notice at work today, after taking a serious look at my future with the bank, finances, and school plans.  I was planning to take the summer off for an internship, but now I've made the choice not to go back.  To my surprise, the news was taken with good grace and respect. What a load off my mind!  When I got out to my car after work, I saw this sign.  I've seen it a million times, but I'd forgotten it even existed.  How appropriate that I would notice it today.

So as an experiment, hubbie Michael and I are going to try to avoid eating meat for 30 days. This is JUST meat though: eggs and dairy are a necessity for me. I don't know how those vegans do it. I may try this for longer than 30 days...you never know. We'll see how it goes! The experiment is just to see how we feel. I don't think you get anything nutrition wise out of meat that you can't get from plant sources. I'm anemic, so I'll have to be careful to eat lots of iron-loaded foods. If its possible to get all of our protein from non-meat sources and still feel great, then the health benefits could outweigh the inconveniences! Wish me luck!
