Habit Tracking: Week 19 (May 08 - May 14)

[mistressofmuses]

A bright chameleon this week, because I like it. And the slightly odd-looking frog, in the hopes of summoning a frog when we went to Hudson Gardens. (It worked!)


And the closest thing to a snapping turtle that I had a sticker for.

This was... not a great week. I felt kind of off for a lot of the week - I had the really awful sunburn [which started peeling today, argh], plus the pretty painful back injury for several days. I had at least two days where I was just in an unexplained bad mood. Then a lot of people I know lost loved ones, and I hurt for them. I also consistently struggled with writing, and the switch from housesitting back home was a minor but present stress. Just... not the most fun I've ever had. That said, my days off at the start of the week were nice, going to the gardens and then a short walk at a local pond.

Goals for the week:
- I did remember to call my mom on Mother's Day
- We continued housesitting, and I remembered to get the mail and fill the feeders (including the hummingbird feeders) on Tuesday
- I barely finished the rough draft of Island Territory. There are some really sketchy parts that are going to need SERIOUS rewriting, but it's done enough for me to start on the second draft.
- I didn't start the second draft yet - I'm almost exactly a week behind where I'd hoped to be, so I've got some catching up to do!
- I did read more of The Hanged Man, and it's getting really good! Taylor was right!

Tracked habits:
- Work - 5/7
- Household Maintenance - 6/7, mostly taking care of mom's house
- Physical Activity - 6/7, with the most serious going to Hudson Gardens and on a local walk, plus cleaning.
