Shannon Combs 6/15/2019 9:37 AMI am so excited for this competition!! I did it last year and although I didn’t do a whole lot, I am definitely going to try my hardest and do each of these actions at least once!-
Adele Philippides 6/17/2019 8:55 AMIts not about doing a lot... sometimes its hard to make a huge change in our already-stressed lives. But if we change a couple of things each year, especially if it sticks, well - it's progress in the right direction!
