Here are the things:

 

Leave for work by 8:30 am

Workouts - NF bodyweight 3x a week and jump rope 2x

Readings, prayer rope

Clean the kitchen counter every day

Clean or put away, or repair one thing every day

Home improvement, three per week, more items to be added as needed

  • Decorate (hang boat half, ice axe, snowflake picture)
  • Seeds (hang light in kitchen, start seeds for garden)
  • Prep garden (fix netting frame, new weedwhacker, tool storage box?)
  • Move chair, plastic drawers
  • Fix table
  • Organize living room SAR gear

Brush teeth in the evening

Adventures (hiking, climbing gym, geocaching, SAR training, etc.) at least one per weekend, other times optional

I envy your seed starting goal. I don't currently have a cat-free spot with good light for starting seeds.

I can imagine that cats would complicate seed starting.

Friday, I skipped some things because I was on my feet all day (work is usually a desk job, but not that day) and I was tired. Plus I had to pack for Saturday's SAR training day in the snow. Saturday, I did the SAR training. It was a good day. I'm tired again.

 

I don't think I said anything about climbing on Thursday. It was very good. This was only the third time I've been back to the gym since Covid started, but I feel like I'm improving. I climbed some stuff that was at the level I was doing in 2020, but even more exciting, I felt like I was just moving better on the wall. Like I would just know where to put my hands or feet to make certain moves easier. It was a really cool feeling.

Well, Sunday looks like I didn't do anything, but it's not quite as bad as it looks. There are some things like readings and brush teeth that I really should have done, but I'm okay with the rest of it. I spent a lot of time prepping food for my vacation, in particular packaging stuff into individual meals that I can use if I do any backpacking (or just eat in camp if I don't). I also started a gear pile in the living room. I suspect that this week will be a lot of prepping and packing.

My mornings are shifting later because I've been staying up late. I have gotten a lot of packing done though.

I had an awesome vacation! I spent 9 days driving, camping, backpacking, geocaching, and learning more than expected about rocks. It was very good. Now I'm home, which is also good.

Yay , glad you had fun! Where did you go? Double yay for geocaching.

Grand Canyon was the main attraction, although I also enjoyed the 5-6 hours I spent exploring a small part of Antelope Island in the Great Salt Lake on the way home.

My wife and kids and I were blessed to be able to travel to see the Grand Canyon back in 2020. I was so captivated that I could have stayed for hours, days even. We want to return so badly.
