    Winding down on the challenge. Informative two weeks.

    I think the coolest idea on here was meeting a new neighbor each day. I recently joined the website "NextDoor" and since then I have organized a neighborhood Tuesday running group, helped my neighbor trim her cats nails while she has a broken arm, and become the designated extra plant lady in the neighborhood. It's been so fun!

    New energy efficient windows arrive tomorrow. Warmer inside and more energy and money saved!  Going green and saving green.

    I'm so impressed by all the activity that I have seen from our NBI EcoChallegne team! Coworkers encouraging others to sign up, talking about their different challenges and experiences. This is what its all about!

    It's a good thing that there's a place near my house that will accept non-curbside materials for recycling (rigid plastic, scrap metal, plastic bags, etc.) because otherwise I'd be carrying a lot of stuff with me!
    I skipped the challenge for one day after painting a room in my house: I am not carrying some paint rollers and painter's tape around with me. I don't want to get paint all over various things and end up producing more garbage!
