    Well I missed most of the challenge because of complications, but I still tried and that's what matters.  I know I answered a lot of already do it when I went through the actions and that makes me feel pretty good about being an eco friendly person on a regular basis.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Limit Social Media
    Social media is a great way to keep us connected with loved ones, makes us laugh, and helps us to learn new things. It can also take more time than we realize or intend to give. After doing this action for a few days now, how do you feel? What do you notice?

    I've noticed that I was not in such a hurry to get ready this morning and wasn't feeling as pressured to be fast to get out the door on time.  I used to log in first thing in the morning and now I'm not so I have a few extra minutes to either handle issues or just not feel pressured.  It's great!

    How can you incorporate other personal values (like quality time with friends or spending time in nature) into your exercise routine?

    I'm trying to get up enough stamina to be able to walk the dogs with my daughter which gives them exercise and quality time with her.

    Slow going but I met my normal step goal yesterday which means that I'm getting back to being "active" again.  Or at least some things are returning to normal and each step means a healthier me.
