Habit Tracking: Week 21 (May 17 - May 23)

[mistressofmuses]

Well, spending nearly three hours trying to get Firefox to function post-update wasn't quite how I planned to spend the evening "catching up," but here we are...

This week, a cute axolotl drinking some boba.

As cute as this sticker was, it was a pretty lousy week. Dealt with an extremely long workday on Sunday, followed by medical shit on Monday, waiting on pending possibly-bad news, followed by insurance issues and the daunting bill that will badly fuck me over, all in addition to gloomy grey weather for much of the week. Breakfast with my dad on Thursday was nice! I did get an okay amount of reading done! Those were good points. But overall, feeling very down and like nothing matters, and I don't want to deal with any of it.

This week I went for a third layout tweak, which was outlining all the grid boxes in pen. I am a bit torn on whether I prefer the slightly more subtle pencil outlines, or if I like how much the pen outline makes it stick out. I may go back and forth a few more times while I decide. (Pencil is a bit less of a pain, because I am evidently incapable of not smearing the ink, so fewer ink lines is fewer chances to fuck it up, ha.)

And here is my chart of the things I was reading.

Goals for the week:

• I did go to my dermatology appointment
• I did finish reading A Wizard of Earthsea
