I can share with you a bit about what I have learned along the way. If you are new to meditation and curious about it, this workshop might be for you. Meditation can lead you to new inner experiences and transform your life into a more meaningful existence.

Home Composting Pick-Up
"
Hi Riverview/Lord Roberts neighbours,
We have decided "to put our money where our mouth is" and sign up for home pick-up composting through Compost Winnipeg. In order for them to pick-up in the Riverview and Lord Roberts neighbourhoods, they need 15 households to sign up for weekly pickup. I am hoping that others in the neighbourhood might like to join us (please forward to other interested friends, and I promise, this will be my one and only request email!).
The best part is that they compost most organic material including bread, meat waste and other items that don't work in a back yard compost for $25 per month (although they currently have a 20% discount
). The website with more information and sign up opportunity is listed below.
Thanks for considering it!
Charlene and Dean Smallwood"
