I have decided to give myself challenges to push myself to become more aware, environmentally creative, and see what I really am capable of doing. I encourage any of you to join me in these challenges if you so desire. If you do please let me know and update me on your progress. I know it is already a couple of days into June so I am cheating a little, but here it goes..... for the rest of the month of June I am going to try and only buy things for my husband and my (Plus our little man, our dog Moe) immediate needs. This means I will only be buying things like food, medicine, and things of these nature. As I do this I am going to take mental inventory of the things that I am wanting to buy that are not necessary and see if I can boot them out of my shopping list for good. I will check in about once a week and discuss any struggles I am having or confess to any money spent to something that was not related to a necessary need.

Although I must confess already, my goodness it's only been 2 minutes into the challenge and I am already confessing! I do have a train ride on Thursday into a province of China that I have not been to before, so I am afraid that I will be spending money there. I wish myself better luck as this progresses!

 Cheers to you all and keep on keeping on....
