When I was in Italy, with the exception of The Napoli Trash Wars, it was fairly clean. It has struck me upon my return home that everyplace is subject to trash here. People regularly trash the beaches, hiking trails will have soda and beer cans, bar wrappers, streets. It is everywhere.
This was brought about by a single piece of white trash on the freeway heading out to Bonnie's this morning. It is part of the American psyche, nothing is our fault and we are responsible for nothing. In Italy I saw people cleaning "their space", taking pride in what they presented to the world. I am not saying that everything was pristine but it was a whole lot more pleasant.

About Me
- sammie96
- I am entering the midlife term with my elderly mother in tow. I left my eastern hometown for a reason but all my brothers and my sister died before me so now I have mom. I put myself through nurse's training first as an LVN and then as an RN. I did this while being a single parent of a lovely, educated and kind daughter. I learned that there would be no one ther to kill spiders for me and that I had best learn to do it for myself. I can do plumbing but I hate it. I enjoy light electrical, painting, acid staining concrete and many other home improvement projects. I am also a really good cook. My friend Pat gave me the best compliment, she said "sometimes you must get disappointed when you go to a restaurant".
