    The challenge so far has been a success.  I have noticed that there are many little things you can do and you don't even realize you're doing them.  For example, one of the challenges I did was not waiting for the water to warm up in the shower.  This was super easy to do and it only meant getting a little cold water on you to save gallons of water!  My favorite part of the challenge that I am doing is the daily walks. I walk to all my classes every day but I didn't want to count these walks.  I found that walks are much more enjoyable when you don't have a destination or time limit.  The past couple of days the weather has been amazing and walking around by the marsh was super beautiful and relaxing.  I really use these walks to get my mind of the daily stresses of life.   Loving the challenge so far!
