January Review + XP Cash-In

[dancinpenguins]

 


 Remember, we're not here to beat ourselves up over our failures, but to celebrate our successes! With that in mind, please leave a comment on this post letting us know which January goals you accomplished, and also go back through the month and count up your longest consecutive run of substantial check-ins you had in a row (remember, "I did nothing"s don't count! a check-in should include at least one thing that you did that was positive that day). Round down to the nearest number of consecutive weeks you checked in, and then leave that number in bold at the bottom of your comment to earn your XP! Please also indicate how you would like that XP to be divvied up among characters. (Last month's will get processed today).

New goal post will go up shortly!

Check in for 1 week straight = 250xp
Check in for 2 weeks straight = 500xp
Check in for 3 weeks straight = 750xp
Check in for the entire month daily = 1000xp!

+ try to stay on top of my tags; clear out my inbox at least once every weekend
i was actually pretty good at cleaning my inbox every weekend!

+ walk a mile every day
still counting it even tho it's been lax since the weather's been shit and i've taken the bus home some but i try to walk more when it's nice out to make up for it!!

+ finish 5 audio books
ELEVEN????? how is that even possible. i am an audiobook MONSTER (and at three of them were books i started in months before but w/e)

+ no impulse spending
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. an effort was made. i am a work in progress

+ don't put any new expenses on my credit cards
that was a cute idea i had. sighs

+ limit eating out to twice a week
i was going to say i didn't meet this one but i guess i kind of did ... i don't actually eat out THAT MUCH, my problem is spending money at the caf at work sighs

+ things to do now that i have health insurance: find a hematologist, look into therapy and getting my bipolar/anxiety meds again
i looked into it! i have to schedule an appointment with my pcp first but i've looked at different therapists and doctors on my health plan too. and now i chose my pcp so i can ... move forward with that

+ spend more time playing video games and catching up w tv now that i'm about to have a tv and consoles again
oh yes
