    I learned that it is easier to not buy random things in the store than I thought it would be. I also learned that walking outside helps when you aren't feeling well. Nature is a beautiful thing that I have not really lived in harmony with... I am hoping that as I continue to walk outside and spend less on trivial things, I will learn to appreciate nature and money more.

    This not buying things for health and safety is getting difficult. I have Rock For A Cause things to buy.

    I love walking around the block and seeing that there isn't trash. I am contemplating going to the other side of the street this weekend with my son and picking up the growing pile there. I think the exercise of cleaning up the community will be good for him.

    I thought with payday here I would fail at the buying things but with the way things are going it won't be an issue. Being outside 20 minutes a day is easy here at work but this weekend it could be a challenge. I can do this!

    Buying only things for health and safety is more difficult than I thought it would be. I almost didn't make it yesterday.

    Found a treasure on my walk this morning. After I run it through the wash I will now have a pouch for my pool quarters; it has a skull on it. Very happy with my find. But I also picked up some trash. Less trash today than yesterday.

    Picked up trash on my walk today. There was more of it today than there has been for the last two weeks combined. Not happy about that. I wish people would actually use the trash and recycle bins.

    Starting to worry that I will forget to update this every day. Ugh
