Habit Tracking: Week 12 (March 15 - March 21)

[mistressofmuses]

This week, I used some viney plant/leaf stickers, in an attempt to bully myself into actually doing some of the houseplant care that I've been failing to get to since before the appendicitis. It worked! It was also appropriate, because this week was when trees around here very suddenly decided to have leaves again. Later I realized that green was also a timely choice for St. Patrick's day. (Though I'll keep the snakes, thanks.)

This was a somewhat weird week; Sunday started with the most snow we've had all season, and then we broke multiple heat records (for the month, not just specific date) on Thursday and Saturday. I am delighted that spring flowers and leaves are showing up, though the heat and dryness is still a worry. I did play a lot of video games this week (though really, that just means I played for an hour or two each day.) It's been nice getting to play things again. (Or get to play things that came out in the last decade or two.) I did most of the important/responsible things I wanted to. I finished another book. It was a pretty decent week, even if I didn't manage to do quite everything.

Goals for the week:

• I did call my doctor's office to try and sort out my insurance, but they just told me to call my insurance company
• I did my plant care (for at least half of my plants, the ones in the most need)
• We did go get crickets
• I did pay a chunk of my hospital bill
• I read Butterfly Effects
• I worked on my reviews
• I did not work on my WIP outline
• I did not work on my reading page
• I did set up my PS5
• I did not clean up my table and drawer
• I started The Map and the Territory
• I did call my insurance company, and they've allegedly submitted a request to my doctor's office to resubmit the claim
• I went to the bank
• I did not send a thank you card
