    I found my neighborhood association and will be going to an upcoming meeting to start getting involved - something my husband and I have talked about doing for some time but the Ecochallenge pushed me to actually do it!

    This weekend was tough - between a sick husband, running errands and catching up on sleep, I was a bit distracted from my challenge. I did manage to let a good friend know how important she is to me and once again, that felt so good to say and I can tell it made her happy. The practicing gratitude challenge is a good one!!

    Went to the pumpkin patch with my son, daughter in law and their new addition and said no to pie and taffy...no processed sugar for me! Plus I got my gratitude in. :)

    I sent a text to the breeder we got our dogs from who has become a friend and let her know how much I appreciate her and all of the advice she gives us when we ask her anything....it does feel good to let people know you care.

    The practicing gratitude challenge is tricky! I thought about three things I was tahnkful for and meant to write them down like I'm supposed to, but was so busy with housework and walking the dogs that I forgot. So I don't get to say I met that challenge but I'm staying strong against sugar so it's a 1-1 day - could be worse!

    I feel so good when I avoid processed food and especially sugar. It was hard to be at a happy hour last night and not have a glass or wine with everyone but I stuck to my soda water!
