I hope that most of us will be able to continue this conscientious effort to conserve resources at all aspects of daily living until it becomes second nature. Something as simple as taking the bus has become transformative in a very personal way. Time to think, time to appreciate the blueness of the sky and decompress. I certainly will try my best to carry these small changes forward.

Harvested my tomatoes this Sunday. Fully organic and pesticide free. Planted the seeds, watered them when it did not rain, and nature did the rest.

Feeling optimistic about continuing behavioral changes beyond the challenge period. I feel i could have chosen more challenges.

  Anu, that's great! I was thinking of making a list of some of the other challenges I'd like to try and continuing to challenge myself after the EcoChallenge officially ends. :)

Rode the bus, remembered to power down my PC and made my all-veggie lunch and dinner. Of all the things, remembering to be on time for the bus was the challenge. Missed it and had to wait 30 minutes for next. Patience is indeed a virtue.

  I also missed my bus last week! My new bus driver is a little earlier than my old one. But I caught it today!

  That's my biggest fear when I take the bus, that I'll miss it! Ugh, patience is indeed a virtue. Good for you for sticking with it and waiting for the next bus. :)
