    My husband and I have been discussing a grey water catchment system, and this challenge made the discussion a reality - I feel SO green.  Greener than when I was born (haha - inside joke; my maiden name is Green).

    I already do almost all of this already but am working to make more improvements. Lots of little steps to get there.
