    I've been looking into more information on composting since it's one of my goals for this challenge, and I found this really great blog that has been super helpful for me:

    Today I was focused on my goal of showing gratitude for the earth. Trying to complete most of my work for the day out in the sunshine, appreciating the beauty of the nature around me and my home! I'm looking forward to trying some of the more "difficult" goals I have set for myself.
