Planning meals for the week, every Friday/Saturday. I totally have this one down. Plan Menus on Friday or Saturday, go grocery shopping Sunday night.
Getting the dishes done every night, not leaving anything until morning. Not as good as I should have been... but better?
Keep up with the laundry. All except the folding part.
Taking time to take care of me
Actually using the Clinique face wash system I've been claiming to use for like, 3 years, but haven't actually used as I was worried about having to buy more when I ran out. not so great
Flossing my teeth. oh dear. Once?
Taking time to read/do something else just for me. Ah, one I didn't screw up. Managed to do something for me at least 5 times this week...
Take my vitamins. Every day. At least twice a day. blah. Got the calcium chews, but not really doing that great on everything else.
Write, every day, for NaNoWriMo (so far so good, I'm only a little behind my goals...) Missed two days. But wrote all the others, yay!
New Habits for the week:
Spend at least 30 minutes working on a current project (otherwise I'll never finish them all).
Smart Habit Saturday So Ive revamped the habits thing. Here's where I am this week:
Habits I have already started working on:
Planning meals for the week, every Friday/Saturday.
Getting the dishes done every night, not leaving anything until morning.
Keep up with the laundry.

We're going to pretend that last week didn't happen, because I totally sucked at life and got nothing accomplished habit-wise. I might have even slipped back a bit, on the journaling. So no new habits this week... just work on keeping up with what I have.
Habits I have already started working on:
Try to journal (in a paper journal) for at least five minutes every night. If nothing else, record how well I followed my habits that day.

Planning meals for the week, every Friday/Saturday. I actually did this early this week, to take advantage of being off of work on Friday :-)
Getting the dishes done every night, not leaving anything until morning. 6/7, with the off day being Wednesday night. I was too dead tired to do anything worthwhile.
Keep up with the laundry. So far so good. Yay!

Flossing my teeth. around 12/14? (morning and night?) this week... I'm getting better.
Taking time to read/do something else just for me. Working on a book on forming habits... read Harry Potter 7, then 6... Going to reread 7 again tonight and tomorrow, probably. :-)
New Habits for the week:
Take my vitamins. Every day. At least twice a day.
So I'm attempting to start good habits, right? It turns out, there's a whole little community of bloggers, doing more or less the same thing. The Smart Habit Saturday idea is hosted by The Lazy Organizer, so I figure I'll give it a try.
So. Habits I have already started working on:
Planning meals for the week, every Friday/Saturday. This one is actually going pretty well, as I was in this habit before school and everything got the better of me. It's been pretty easy to pick back up
Getting the dishes done every night, not leaving anything until morning. 6/7, with the off day being Friday night. Weekends = hard to keep routines.
Keep up with the laundry. I only have like, one load of clothes in the hamper. I think this is a first since living in Texas.
Taking time to take care of me... which I've been truly really bad at. This includes:
Actually using the Clinique face wash system I've been claiming to use for like, 3 years, but haven't actually used as I was worried about having to buy more when I ran out. I think I'm on about three weeks with this one, and it's going ok. It definitely helps to have an evening routine... gets me ready to go to sleep.
Flossing my teeth. I suck at this one. Probably 4/7 this week.
Taking time to read/do something else just for me. Not too bad... I certainly have enough on my reading list. ;-)
New Habit for the week:
Try to journal (in a paper journal) for at least five minutes every night. If nothing else, record how well I followed my habits that day.
This is my brain..... in part, at least.
