Mercedes Salles 10/27/2016 12:03 PMOne of the challenges I'm having a hard time with is unsubscribing from catalogs. I'm planning to move again soon and feel like I'll just have to do that all over again once I move... so I don't have much motivation to sit down and get that done :( Only one day left to motivate myself to do it before the challenge is over! Yikes! -

Mercedes Salles 10/19/2016 1:28 PMI remembered my water bottle today but wasn't thinking about needing coffee when I got to my appt this morning. :/ dang. #minorsetback -
Mercedes Salles 10/18/2016 8:36 AMI brought a reusable water bottle from home today and am washing my coffee mug out now to go get me some coffee from the local shop! Woop! I'm having trouble getting outside instead of in front of a screen with this dang weather. Does going out to a bar instead of watching Netflix, count? lol #nope -
Mercedes Salles 10/17/2016 8:07 AMI feel like the really hard part is logging over the weekend. I didn't use any disposable cups or bottles over the weekend! I guess, that's reward enough. ;)-
Mercedes Salles 10/17/2016 11:17 AMI figured out how to go back and update what I did over the weekend! YAY!
