    Working on my goals.  Did not get the Programable Thermostat in yet.  That will have to happen later.  Still a personal goal.  Water savings goals going well.

    I strive to save energy and water whenever possible.  Love the thought of making a difference every day.  Will try the 5 minute shower routine, I am usually 8-10 minutes.
