Laura's actions
Health
Know My health
I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).
Food
Plant an Herb Garden
I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.
Simplicity
De-Clutter My Home
I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.
Nature
Enjoy the Sunrise/Sunset
I will enjoy the sunrise and/or sunset each day.
Waste
Recycle Everything I Can
Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, making sure to not contaminate recyclables with non-recyclables.

I just put my little raised garden to bed for the year. New England has a short growing season. I will miss gathering organically grown tomatoes, herbs, kale, chard, peppers and squash from my own garden. Well, maybe not the squash... sooooooo much squash!
