It's unfortunate that I haven't had the time in order to checkin as often, however I am glad that I was able to participate. 

I am happy to say that I am able to keep up with the eco challenge even though i missed a few days it's good to know that I am still able to participate.

It makes me feel better knowing that I can start making a positive impact on my life and the environment. And I'm used to room temperature or just below so It's perfect for me. 

I have been trying to practice my challenges before we start doing the daily check-ins and hopefully I can stick to my routine and keep on making sure I complete them. It's a little hard to remember to unplug some cables, especially since I work a lot with music equipment. but other than that it's going pretty well. Especially since I work a lot with music equipment. also I keep checking for actions that I have already done and it's pretty astounding how many I had to do for previous classes and because of lifestyle change within the past few years. 

I didn't realize how many of these I already do especially relating to health, it's interesting to learn how mindfulness helps with understanding how to respect the environment and the creatures in it. 

Tonight I will sleep without my heater on and try to bundle up with blankets, and I will also try to remember to unplug my devices when I am not using them. It's hard to remember to do these actions when you're accustomed to a certain way of living.  But I'm looking forward to challenging myself. as far as lights go i turn them on and off only when necessary so that's a good start. 

I look forward to doing these challenges, I know that they are small on the grand scale of things but I know that it will make a difference in mindfulness in the future when I appreciate my effort.
