I guess you switched to cooking all your meals at home? I suppose that would make things difficult.<BR/><BR/>On my PT front I am so relieved I don't have to deal with hormone crazed teens on my commute anymore. The tradeoff is I have to wake up at an ungodly hour, but not having teens make out and flirt near me is a blessing!Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03068855919147458057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203077889905915553.post-66622341035512488582008-05-01T10:48:00.000-07:002008-05-01T10:48:00.000-07:00You're so awesome!

Initially, I was a little disappointed with my gas usage, but then I stopped and reminded myself how far I've come. <BR/><BR/>SDG, I'm very much enjoying "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle." Look forward to several posts about it!<BR/><BR/>Pink Dogwood, I'm glad I inspire you. Even once a week of taking PT is huge! Those trips add up!<BR/><BR/>Cindy, yes, I agree. The PT challenge has definitely been the hardest. But it has also been one of the most rewarding (probably tied with the no frozen food challenge.)<BR/><BR/>Burban, yeah it's a fun fast read, huh? Next I'm moving on to Deep Economy which I believe is based on your rec.<BR/><BR/>Kaitlin, you're right. It's so ingrained that taking PT is inconvenient, but it's not AS inconvenient as we imagine it to be.<BR/><BR/>Jennifer, I managed to finally get a copy at the library, but it JUST came out in paperback if you want to check your bookstore again. You can also buy it used at Amazon Marketplace, EBay or Barnes and Noble if you don't have a used bookstore in town.<BR/><BR/>Badhuman, yeah, I picked it up a few days ago and I'm already about 150 pages in. I am REALLY enjoying it!ruchihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17043512641324366469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203077889905915553.post-69713817404038247522008-05-01T09:57:00.000-07:002008-05-01T09:57:00.000-07:00The book is awesome.

Then, when I had to go completely car-free, it was hardly a big deal at all. I was already used to busing on a regular basis. Now, when people talk about busing being too inconvenient I have to kinda roll my eyes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11068916994258628514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203077889905915553.post-74141897512615075532008-05-01T03:36:00.000-07:002008-05-01T03:36:00.000-07:00Great Job on the PT Challenge!
