January's Habit of the Month results...

JANUARY

I'll begin keeping track today--January 8. Each number is the date that the activity happened. First day tallying I've done both! We're off to a good start.

Getting up from the desk each work day:
8, 9, (10, 11, 12 OFF), 13, 14, 15, 16, (17, 18, 19 OFF) 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 (Yes-I worked on Saturday)

Making the bed daily:
8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 (gave myself the weekend off), 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31

Making the bed and getting up from my desk were relatively easy to hold myself to becuase I already did them somewhat regularly, but I don't mind built in success in the first month of a year long trek. February is going to be brutal!

Home Habit of the Month

Month 3: Get rid of and file all mail and incoming paper from school, work, and play as soon as it comes in. (Touch it once!)

Accomplished on: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

This includes reading newspapers and recycling right away and cutting coupons and recycling the remaining paper right away. There are two visual measures to this success in my house.

1. Dining room table free of clutter

2. Kitchen counter free of clutter

On May 1 the dining room table is pristine. The small kitchen counter has a to do pile, which I'll put in a folder so it isn't as noticeable. That way I will have a visual reminder. Is the small counter clear? Yes. Good. No? Take care of it every day!
