    As for today the 23rd I did not use up a paper bag for my work meal, but I did end up getting a paper cup for a drink, which kind of feels like a waste. Other than that my weekend and today I have been vigilant about how much social media I intake

    So on the 21st I basically stayed inside all day so that eliminates the plastics and bag challenges, on the 22nd I went to Petco to buy my dog some toys, but I neglected to consider the plastic full cost, and also I received a bag for the toys :(

    On the 17th I didn't refrain from using social media too much, but there was small attempts made to sit back and think about stuff in my free time instead. I also had no need for plastics and using a reusable bag at a store. On the 18th I was able to not use my phone for the bus rides to and from work extensively, and I grabbed no bag for my shift meal. Will be recycling this aluminum foil tho :)

      Do you notice anything when you don't use your phone on your bus rides? I started to realize that almost everyone on the bus is on their phone!

    On the 15th I had a family dinner to attend to and I stayed home and did not need to go to the store to buy plastics or use a reusable bag, I did also not use my phone during the dinners. On the 16th today, I did not use a bag to carry home my shift meal and I refrained from using my phone during that time as well :)

    Hello, so just here to say that on the 14th at the grocery store I avoided getting a paper bag as I re purposed a reusable bag for the second time that day and I avoided bingeing social media for most of yesterday, and I expect the same today.

    Yeah, I don't know if the daily challenge button will refresh, but on the 12th I refrained from using my phone for most of the time I was out and about and did not use/need bags. As for the 13th I will limit my social media use by spending time with my dog instead, and I will not do any physical shopping to need a bag. :)

    Carried my food today with no bag, avoided using my phone for my trip to work today, and did some gnarly recycling :)
