    Only two days left of the Eco-challenge.  :(  Next year they should consider extending to three weeks.  According to this article, it takes 21 days to form a habit.  Just say'n

    Made coffee at home on Saturday and Sunday, instead of grabbing a cup to go from my local coffee spot.   Saved money and saved the planet.  Win Win.

    Idea Alert:  Eco Challenge needs to develop an App.  It would make checking in for challenges  after work hours or challenges done over the weekend that much easier.  Could set reminders and access everything right from your finger tips.  Do It Already!!!!

    Ate lunch with some co-workers out at director's park.  It was a little cold, but worth getting away from the computer.

    Watched a sweet documentary on netflix called the science of food.  Its actually a PBS TV series.  The two episodes I watched were awesome. Now instead of binge eating, I am going to binge watch the entire season.

    Glad to donate money to a good cause.  Really impressed with the website's improvements.  Being able to identify challenges as "I already do this" is a great new feature.
