I planted several tomato plants and a variety of peppers. The soil here is very poor (mostly clay), so that’s a challenge. I used a lot of compost and mulch to retain moisture, but I’m sure how it will pan out. I hope to have a decent crop for my first time, which will lower both my consumption and my food bill.

Separating goals
2 days ago
I just added a new goal of making my home more energy-efficient. Since it seems that my home is the biggest (now that I barely drive), I figured I could better track my changes that way. I am still working on ways to lower my eco footprint via my consumer choices, and I will track those here.

I had forgotten a lot of the details of this book. I expect to be done in a couple of weeks, as my reading time is limited. Amazing how much my attitude is changing for the better…
