    I made my own water bank for my toilet tank today and installed it this morning. I look forward to seeing if it makes a difference in my water usage over time
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity
    Fresh air and movement are good for our entire being and can help us think more clearly and creatively. How does taking a walk each day affect yourself and/or your work?

    Take a walk (or a run) each day helps me to focus and appreciate the world around me.
