    continue to ride my bike to and from work as long as it doesn't rain!  have been able to maintain my commitment not to buy packaged food products and to only purchase food during this 2 wk period.  have decided to limit my clothing purchases now to Goodwill only

    Today was a great day.  Drove my prius to work(only because it was raining, would otherwise bike to work), had a sandwich for lunch packed in a washable container, had a delivered dinner(because of a meeting) packaged in recyclable materials.

    I made a challenge to myself last month to only purchase clothing/items from Goodwill--no more new clothing purchases.  Am so proud of this decision and think that it will not be hard to adhere to!

      This year, I've been making an effort to repair my casual clothing that has begun to show wear & tear.
