Habit Tracking: Week 42 (October 12 - October 18)

A horror-genre themed sticker, which I bought last year from the Boulder Book Store. I love it, and all the little figures.

This was a fairly good week. We got a nice walk in, which was nice after a week where we couldn't. I also knocked out a good amount of reading, which I'd felt behind on. I also got some writing done, even if I wasn't completely satisfied with it. I kinda went downhill at the end of the week, just feeling extremely unmotivated and tired. Not sure if I should blame that on the weather ups and downs, or if it's just me, lol.

Goals for the week:

• I finished reading Nothing But Blackened Teeth
• I did finish a mediocre version of my Worldhopping Fairytale Monstrosity intro
• I did clean off my bedside table
• I put my laundry away
• I did not work on my reading page
• I did not make my phone call
• I continued my "October devotional"
• We did go get fruit flies
• I read Silver and Lead
• I finished a so-so version of my next WIP intro

For my October devotional:

• 12 - We bought Bella a raincoat
• 13 - I bought some Halloween-themed toys for Bella (and one for me, lol)
• 14 - We took a really nice walk along the greenbelt
• 15 - I gave myself extra cozy-in-bed reading time
