    Turning off my computers is harder than I thought it would be. But it does have the net positive effect of easing me into my day and keeping me from over-checking my emails.

    My house is crammed full of can lighting - something like 80 of them. So, every week or two when I go to Costco, I make a point to pick up a four-pack of LED floods and replacing incandescent bulbs with them when I get home. I nearly have the main floor finished now. It costs about $18 for the pack and it doesn't hurt like it would if I tried to buy 80 bulbs all at once.

    All signed up. I started looking through the actions and wanted to add tons of them, but right away was chastised by the system that I should only take on 3-4 actions per day. Sorry, got a little excited ...
