Reviewing this list, it feels sizable, but at least with one per day they are smaller and manageable… hope you agree.  Love when you have shared your ‘changes’ for the day.

Peace hand soap rocks, and I love it even more in foam form!  Sometimes I slip up on the shoes by the door (…my husband REALLY wants me to stick with this change…).  Our monthly income needs some overhaul as to where the dollars are going.  Changing the faucet aerators was ridiculously easy to install… now to see the new water bill.  I have been regularly thinking of the Golden Rule, remembering not to judge others, and listening better to my intuition in many simple daily interactions, even in the smallest moments.  Trying to drink more water, and was pleasantly surprised to learn of the produce listed on the “Clean 15”. I can no longer walk away from a stray piece of trash on the street without picking it up and throwing it away – the guilt gets me every time.  LOVE the sleep clock calculator I mentioned on Feb 12th, in fact, I need to get to bed immediately.

Thanks again for being a part of the changes!
