I suppose technically my bedroom is above my office, which could be considered my cave. I'm in here all day long . So I just wake up, come down the stairs, and I'm in my office. And then at night the process reverses!

Cargo sells their makeup in recyclable, compostable, and sometimes plantable, containers. And I love their colors.
Bare Minerals has handy reusable containers.

Dear Jilly - That is great to hear that some makeup companies are creating plantable makeup containers! I love that idea .

Burt's bees makeup also has some makeup in recyclable tins.
All my Paula's Choice stuff is made from recycled plastic that i can again recycle.
Speaking of organizing bedrooms, I only get to sleep on half my bed. The other half I use as a table for storing things. Sloppy!

Jilly -
In Japan they would consider it "wasted space" to have a bed out all day long taking up space. They roll up / put away the bed so that space can be used functionally during daytime hours. So you're being efficient!
Can you maybe put a board on the bed so that it's a table in the day and then move the board at night?

Interesting idea, Lisa. That is not the direction i want to go in inside Serenity, but for other people i could see it working nicely.
I finally cleaned off the other half of my bed last night and am luxuriating in having an entire bed to stretch out on! It's easier to sleep around these cats now, too.

It's interesting how little we need to live with when we come down to it. I am traveling for a month, quite easily, with my one suitcase. I don't even feel deprived of options for shoes or clothes. You just kind of get more use out of what you have.
Food for thought, at least. We don't need as many choices in all things as we think we do.

That is very true Jilly. Once we have gathered up things we adore, and passed along the rest to others, then each choice we have is a great one.
