    Last week I was traveling, so I didn't log in.  I managed my thermostat in my hotel room to help stay focused on energy!  I also used my Nest app to manage the thermostats at home, and make sure my family wasn't bumping the temp settings!  I was not able to confirm organic foods at most of my meals, but I did walk to the office instead of using an Uber and I limited my showers to 5 Min.  It's great to stay focused on these important initiatives!
