    I enjoy walking and pilates the most. They help quiet my brain and be more productive because I was active.

    I didn't try anything new this week, but did have Zucchini, Corn and cucumbers that my son picked from the farm he is working at. Fresh picked vegetables are the best and this is my favorite time of year in New England with all the local produce.

    I can unplug appliances when not using. I can also not use the dryer and hang things outside to dry, which I was able to do today.

    The rain was crazy today causing 8 hours driving and 4 hours in meetings, not getting home until after dark and still raining so no outside activity.

    I went to the local farmer's market with my son today and we bought fresh picked blueberries and raw milk, in a glass bottle. My son was thinking of ways to reuse the bottle when finished.

    Leading into a big holiday weekend, I find myself thinking about how to make best decisions to not use plastic. Tonight I will be joining friends at the beach and am planning what containers to pack and how the food will be shared etc. Holidays are tough as the easy answer is alway paper plates, plastic cups and silverware.

    I thought yesterday was July 1st and purposefully got up extra early to spend time outside, I was a day early. Travelling for work this week and brought both hot and cold reusables with me to avoid using plastic!
