Habit Tracking: Week 52.5 (December 21 - December 27)

[mistressofmuses]

[I like to end my tracker at the end of the year, and begin again at the start, which means that most years there are partial weeks to end and start on.]

This week, a sticker by my friends the Atomic Pixies. I like the blue fairy, and it felt appropriately wintery and peaceful for the close of the year.

The time between Christmas and New Year's always feels a little weird. This span of four days was easy - two and a quarter of them I had off. I did manage to get a lot of what I'd hoped to completed - reviews, end of year stuff, etc.

Goals for the week:

• I did finish reading The Fragile Threads of Power
• I started reading Manhunt
• I worked on my reviews for December books
• I posted those reviews
• I did write up my 2025 reflections
• I declared a goal of 75000 words for 2026 at both getyourwordsout and inkingitout
• I mostly finished my reading page
• I didn't send thank you cards... there was apparently some drama that means I should no longer send anything to one part of the family
• New Year's Eve happened!
• I did my final getyourwordsout check-in for the year: 15034 words written in December; 116015 for the year
• We went and got crickets and more fruit flies
