    I practice reflecting on 3 things I am grateful for each day. I like to do this when I have down time like on my bike ride home or as I go to bed at night.

    Every morning I have a bagel for breakfast - I put hummus on top most days now and only treat myself to cream cheese every once in a while :)

    I can shut down other computers I use besides just my work computer! And other electronics like my coffee machine.

    I've always wanted to sing up for GoBox, but never have (not sure why?)...  adding this to my goals this month!

    Oh my, didn’t think it’d be this difficult to find 10 mins to do my very first meditation (ever in my life)... maybe today. 🤞🏽 471FE2F3-9ACD-45C9-A82F-7ED4A85C4AD4.jpeg 1.88 MB

    The first time I tracked my purchases was throughout my first year out of college working for BPS (plus another job). I want to see if the percentages of my income I'm  saving and spending on different things have changed after almost a year without tracking. I do it simply on a very makeshift Google spreadsheet.
