    This was a fun way to look at my energy consumption and make more conscious decisions about it...clearly we can all reduce our consumption if we make it a priority and that's a hopeful thing in the context of climate change.  Thanks Sherry for your persistence and inspiration.

    this was fun and made me aware of what everyone can do if they are motivated...nothing like a competition to get people moving!

    I walked the nature trail at Gabriel Park in SW Portland for the first time as I happened to be on the west side....it was a lovely setting

    remembered to change the furnace filter. that has an impact on the efficiency of the furnace.

    it was a busy day at church today and my focus on energy savings was not as sharp but I did have several moments of recognizing and resolving energy wastes around me...but I think I could have done more.

    time flies and I need to scope out my nature trail project. hopefully the weather cooperates.  meanwhile continue to enjoy turning off unused lights!

    i'm redirecting some of my light energy to turning down the thermostat and putting on a sweater if needed.  there's some real savings there.

    I was running a little late this morning and managed a 3 minute shower that was completely satisfying...who would have thought?
