I'm falling apart on the length of my showers - it's just so COLD out there and it just feels to GOOD in here that I lose track of time and my auto use vs. bus use on these horridly cold winter days in the snow belt. Waiting 15 minutes in 0 degree F weather, with a windchill of -15 F just doesn't induce me to keep the car in the garage. All I can do is keep on trying, keep on learning and keep on remembering what my ultimate goal is. And now, it's time to find a way to measure my time in the shower without the use of batteries...

I guess my Riot had become comfortable to me, a routine almost, so it was off my radar. But not yet a habit. So little things start slipping and I just need to be keep them into my conscious mind a little longer. We are blessed with a lot of interesting natural places in our neighborhood. In summer we'll bike! Hi Tina,

For other things it's okay not to be perfect all the time! A trip to the wildlife refuge is a cool experience that is worthwhile. It may not have worked today, but it wasn't just a waste of gas, it was a good intention and your child got to see the value you place on nature.
