Defined:
- Shoes: exactly what it sounds like, I’m not wearing shoes for 10 days. Barefoot, period!
- Furniture: pretty self explanatory. No bed, pillows, couches, chairs, tables, or desks at home or at work.
- Media: includes: television, movies, music, magazines, books, games, internet, newspapers, and more. Exceptions include: email during work hours, this blog, and a phone for work-related calls only.
- Legs: no legs, period. I will not be cutting them off, but I will not be able to use them during those 10 days. This means: no standing in the shower, no driving, and using my arms to lift myself up the stairs.
- Coat/Jacket: no coats, jackets, sweatshirts, or sweaters. Long-sleeve shirts are acceptable.
- Spending Money: no spending money for 10 Days during the busiest shopping time of the year.
- Waste: I can’t use anything that produces waste. No plastic bags, paper packaging, or letting the water run while I’m brushing my teeth.
- Perishable Foods: I can’t eat anything fresh or that can go bad easily — this means only rice, beans, dry cereal, etc…
