Office of Resource Planning

I do like having less paper coming in that just ends up in the recycle bin. I did not complete signing up for my last couple of ebills during this challenge as I was away from home and didn't have the right paperwork with me. However I still plan to do this in the coming days. I should also notify charities that send me mail to switch to email...

Exploring new areas helps me see the diversity and often under-appreciated value of the community in which we live. There is so much we often take for granted and I want to work towards taking time to absorb the magnitude of nature around me.

I can't believe it's the last day of the challenge! It flew by. I didn't accomplish everything I had hoped but this certainly made me more aware of some fairly simple changes I can make to help the environment and improve my appreciation of the world we live in.

There was a beautiful big bright moon visible over a funky bridge on our morning walk this morning. I should have snapped a picture!

Very nice weather again. I enjoyed a crisp morning walk and a lovely sunset walk.

Found a very nice park and riverfront trail area for a walk today. It was nice to get some fresh air before heading to conference sessions today.

It was a beautiful morning with lovely pink clouds among the sunrise.

There is so much beauty in a sunrise or sunset; we just need to take a moment to pause and recognize it. Taking this moment definitely makes me feel more connected to the Earth.

Slow and steady progress. These things are becoming regular habits now.

This challenge has added to our sense of community by promoting awareness and learning about resources available in our region. It has also banded our team together as we discuss our challenges and progress.
