Underestimated My Ability To Change

 
8/22/2012  I guess I underestimated my ability to change.....I didn't think I could be held accountable on a daily basis so I chose to check in weekly but I have done so many things so far I figured I should share or Friday's post might turn out to be a short novel. 1) Kelly mentions a website on her blog that lists the "Hall of Shame" of cleaners. I switched to organic cleaners a long time ago.....but I have to admit that I still was using Comet for my kitchen sink and the bottom of my shower and it was one of the offenders for having chemicals known to cause cancer, asthma and reproductive disorders!! I immediately got rid of the bottle and followed Kelly's advice to use dish soap and to my amazement it works wonderful!! 2) We are almost at the end of August which means winter rates on propane will be here in a few short weeks so I scheduled to have my tank topped off on Friday since we are at 20% and I saved us $0.20/gallon!
3) Chris' favorite jeans have a huge hole in the knee and near the pocket and any one who knows me knows that I normally would throw them away and use that as the perfect excuse to run to the mall! Instead I picked up a cool cami jean patch and they now look better than new (I'll post a pic).
 
4) Although I switched to organic facial cleanser/moisturizer awhile ago, I was spending a small fortune, so I switched to 100% Pure Organic Honey on Sunday and I love it and I've saved us approximately $50/year!
