Yesterday I kept to my challenge. I didnt use any new plastic bags (if i do i will recycle), I also recycled the can from my soup, I didnt use styrofoam containers and for the first time in like 4 years my stero wasnt on 24/7. The hardest thing yesterday was that i was freezing and wanted warm coffee from Dunkin Donuts but these styrofoam cups so instead I got iced coffee( which didnt cut down on trash and made me even more cold).
So far today I've been fine with everything and kept to my personal challenges. The lighting challenge was fine for me yesterday as well. However this morning when i was running late I saw that one of the lamps in the living room was on and didnt go back to turn it off. I dont really see how my turning off a light is going to help so I just left it on. I guess Sammy(cat) will have to put the light to good use. In general even the things I choose for my personal challenge I am not to invested in, and I'm not sure how much there going to help. It pesonally seems that the things I choose for my personal challenge may slightly help the household bills but i dont see a big enough impact coming from them to keep them up after the project.
