as i started this faux-vegetarian lifestyle for a few days a week, i was quite unsure of whether it would stick or not. i didnt eat very much meat before-hand so i figured it wouldn't be too much trouble. as i realized these past few weeks that i was very wrong, and it was difficult, it's finally become habit for me not to eat meat when i don't really want it. i ate very little meat at the turkey fry this past weekend and no meat at our apo (community service organization) thanksgiving potluck. although this week is thanksgiving, i decided to quit meat, cold turkey.
i have come to be in a very good habit of saving water and electricity: i don't turn my lights on until night and even then it's just two lamps, i turn the water off while brushing my teeth, i took 2, two minute showers this week and when doing the dishes, i am turning off the water between dishes. it's quite neat knowing that my small changes are making a difference.
as for the recycling project...i finally contacted the manager of my office about it! i have to submit a "green" proposal to them laying out a plan for the recycling project and how to move forward in the "greening" process from there. i know everyone in the office will be just as excited to recycle...

I think this is a great move in the right direction --- i know i haven't really talked to you, but I'm proud of all the changes you made in your lifestyle!! Particularly quitting meat over THANKSGIVING, of all things, was definitely major. Way to go! :D
