ktrxs I’ve been sick these last few days. And I’m pushing “giving up tissues for hankies” until the very end just in case (even though I dread that may be tomorrow). So I’m doing a light change today and I’m putting effort into reducing the amount of junk mail we receive. Junk mail really is a … Read more
I have a rabbit. His name is Rumple and he eats a lot of things. He turns his nose up at celery, but doesn’t mind eating… walls, shoes, cords, and carpet. Besides having to bunny-proof my life and trying my best to keep my walls intact, I do see how I can make my bun … Read more
Ugh, it’s getting cold up here in the northern hemisphere. So my showers have been getting longer and longer to take in the hot steam. Navy showers aside, I find myself prolonging getting out and taking my time getting suds up. However, I do realize that it’s water being wasted. I’m done cleaning ma body. … Read more
Going along with my change from day 28, today is about saving water in the kitchen. Making tea is a constant activity for us. I’m sucking down at least a quart every day. However, sometimes we fill up the WHOLE tea kettle just for a pint of tea. That’s wasteful! So I’m taking today to … Read more

So no more!!! Do you hear that Brandon? (My husband follows me and is usually the cause of said … Read more
Today’s change is about saving water. Sometimes we overdo it in the kitchen. For example, we fill up a whole pot for a handful of pasta. But really you could use way less water to cook pasta. The boxed instructions are lying to us! So when I’m cooking, I’m going to strive to use the … Read more
I know after posting this, I will have 0 followers. 0 friends. And 0 family. LOL! Jk. But I will keep this short though. In Sleeping Naked is Green, Vanessa made a change to only flush on the BMs. So that’s my change too. If it’s yellow, let it mellow. If it’s brown, flush it … Read more
Climate change. Global warming. Greenhouse effect. Now you hear these terms everywhere and you know something bad is happening and the Earth is dying, so that’s why you’re making lifestyle changes. But do you know how climate change, global warming or the greenhouse effect work? Do you know the difference between climate change and weather? … Read more
