a new frontier

Today is Friday, and it's a rather exciting one for me. I'll tell you why. I stuck to my guns this week and managed to not use my car except for once, on Tuesday, when I had planted the milkshake idea in my boyfriend's mind and then my sister broke up with her boyfriend and came over. My car was the only one big enough to fit all three of us for our necessary errand.

But for the last 5 days, I have only driven my car 2 miles.

I have eaten at home every night.

I walked to the grocery store.

I know, I know—somebody get this girl a medal. But bear with me: this is the beginning of the new me. The enviro-conscious-and-acting-on-it me.

So stay tuned, and hold me accountable (that's for all of you out there leaving comments on my blog. Wait. There aren't any comments posted at all....), and maybe even take this journey with me.
