    Wow the SACNAS conference was amazing! So much science support for students, early & mid career people from hispanic/chicano/latinx and indigenous backgrounds! I must tell all my students!

    Meetings all day today, but I am providing Chinese food for my department in honor of my parental units who passed last year. Mom and dad would love to feed everyone and its a nice way to honor their memories.

    I brought my containers to a gratitude gathering on Friday and to dinner out Saturday, and really didn't use any plastic yay! I also ate with lovely people all Saturday and Friday night, and dinner tonight! Yay for mindful eating!

    I took a day off of the challenge checking in, so I could focus on grading, but I still ate mindfully! I think its becoming a habit even without checking in! Yay!
