Eileen's Challenge

So I guess limiting your showers to five minutes, gives your family the right to hog all the hot water! Hello, just because I'm limiting my shower time doesn't mean I want to die of hypothermia from a freezing cold shower!!! In all seriousness everything is still going really well. My showers are short and waste minimal water and I haven't relapsed into being a shopaholic. I try to use as little paper as I can and I'm trying to eat locally and organically.
It's been a crazy journey and I can't wait till it's over. Although I do very much enjoy not being yelled at for taking a 15 minute shower. I rediscovered how much I love organic and local food. Although the food that I've been eating is different then I'm used to now. When I can back from Woolman I had been eating California produce for the past four months, and I was thrown from that back into the fast place food of Western Massachusetts and my life. However eating the food I have lately has really shown me that this is the food I love, tons of veggies, grass fed meat...etc. I think that this part of this assignment will stay for as long as I can afford it.
