Electricity Nazi

This is Riley AKA the "Electricity Nazi" participating in her new favorite activity, conserving "tricity". You see Riley has been learning to conserve and recycle at school. I applaud the schools' efforts in the area of conservation; however, I would like for them to add a little tidbit of information to their lesson plans. Yes it is nice to turn the lights off, WHEN YOU ARE NO LONGER IN USING THE ROOM! I can not tell you how many showers I have taken in the dark or how fun it is to read a book by flash light.
Did you know that 3 billion batteries are thrown away each year world wide..... Well 3 billion and 2, since I had to change the ones in my flash light last night. I sure hope this phase passes soon.
