Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Well, that's what we taught the Cub and Boy Scouts as part of environmental awareness.

Recently, my good friend Todd the Blogger posted about finding a new use for the wedding dress that had been unceremoniously left behind when his wife walked out on their marriage.  Knowing from personal experience what a raw wound divorce can be, I wouldn't be posting this unless he had already opened the door on the subject.

Now I find there's a whole blog devoted to creative re-uses for those supposedly once worn dresses.

As they say, sometimes we laugh to keep from crying. 

BTW, may I offer heartfelt encouragement to a mutual friend as he works to save his marriage and family.  Godspeed, Shay.

As big as some wedding dresses are, they'd make pretty nice bedspreads.

I've helped several friends work through divorce and most of them get better once they either get used to being alone or get a new girl. They all hated dating but said it was a necessary step to getting over their divorce. The guys who dated and found a new partner are much happier than the ones who haven't.
