It now has been some time since I have started my challenge of conversing water. It has differently been an interesting time trying to converse water. My challenge was to take a five minute shower, which at first I was determined to accomplish and then I started slacking but now I am back on track! 

It is interesting how my challenge is to conserve water when I am taking a shower, but now I notice it all the time. I am being more efficient in my hand washing so I do not waste water there, or the way I flush the toilets in Centennial or any other matter. I think it is cool how it has been impacting me in different ways. 

Accouple of days ago when I signed up the Eco Challenge, I decided to pick my activities that I wanted to work on right away. I looked through the different sections and the Water section was the most interesting to me. As I was reading through the different challenges the first one hit me the hardest. Taking a five-minute shower. I almost exclusivity take showers longer than that, so I decided to change this. What I did to make sure I took a five-minute shower is, I set a five-minute timer on my watch. So, when the water started, my watch started. The first couple of days were difficult to cut down my shower time but this morning I managed to take a five-minute shower. This challenge was difficult but I feel like I can make a difference by doing it, and I encourage you to join me!!
