mistressofmuses | Habit Tracking: Week 46 (November 10

(Need to post more of these more often until I get caught up...)

Picked a vibrant jellyfish [not really a fish] for this week. Not a usual color scheme for me!

I spent a good chunk of this week sick, and that was kind of a damper on the rest of it. Otherwise it was... fine. I struggled with a general feeling of not caring about much, not wanting to do anything, feeling like things were just pointless in general. I didn't get caught up on writing, which was in part due to being sick. I did get a good amount of reading done, almost getting through part 2 of Absolution. I was glad to get my overdue shots. So... kind of a mixed bag of a week.

Goals for the week:

I did get my covid and flu shots
I read more of Absolution
I figured out my writing plans, even if I didn't do great at executing them
I did not catch up on Novella November
I did not set up my phone
I did get crickets

Tracked habits:

Work - 4/7 - I stayed home sick on Thursday
Household Maintenance - 3/7
Physical Activity - 2/7
Wrote 500/1000+ Words - 3/7, all over 1000 words
Wrote on 2nd+ Draft - 0/7
Meta Work - 5/7
Personal Writing - 3/7
Other Creative Things - 0/7
Reading - 7/7 - mostly on Absolution but I read some of my ebook, and Alex and I read a bit of Infernal City too
Attention to Media - 7/7 - Sunday we watched The Birds and the finale of Parks and Rec; Monday we watched IT: Chapter 2; Tuesday we half-re-watched The Quiet Place Part 2 and The Babadook; Wednesday rewatched Ouija which still was pretty meh; Thursday we rewatched Ouija: Origin of Evil the much better prequel, and then Aftermath which was also still meh; Friday we rewatched the mediocre Abandoned and then the fairly good first Fear Street movie; Saturday we watched Abbott Elementary and then I fell asleep after we started 20/20.
Video Games - 0/7
Social Interaction - 3/7

Total words written: 5266 words, between meta stuff and my current story

Remember, it usually gets tougher to do stuff in the colder months. Also - dang it seems like it's getting dark WAY earlier than usual. I mean here in Texas - It's damn near dark at roughly 5:45pm and that is jacking with me. I keep wondering if we all accidentally set the clocks too far back.
Makes the days shorter and I give up easier.

That... is a very good point. I don't think I've really taken the time change into account. Sunset is around 4:35 right now, and so by the time I leave work at 6:00 it's been dark for a while. It's frustrating! It definitely makes me ready to just curl up and not do anything. It DEFINITELY feels like it's too dark too early.
