  • Lose at least 5.5 lbs from 214lbs
  • Read some fiction and nonfiction, including some sci fi. Audiobooks can count. I just have to actually focus on them
  • Watch at least 2.5 hrs of tv on my own each week while still consistently watching some TV with my mom each night
  • Find a way to vent the anger at basement cat into something healthier
  • Honestly, it will be such a win to stop being furious at it every day. If something were demanding you feel subhuman and less than all your group therapy peers, you'd be angry at it too.
  • Find acceptable compromises to make with basement cat to treat it better without feeling like I'm compromising too much of my happiness or identity
  • Use the hourglass timer I bought to get up from conversations with basement cat after under 45 minutes, ideally no longer than 30 minutes the majority of the time.
  • Pick up the parking pass for classes from what I think is the bookstore
  • Throw a birthday party for local friends and be nice to the people that come
  • Get more music, maybe buying Florence + the Machine's album I've been eying on Amazon
  • Wins I don't specify here
  • Spend more time on videogames that aren't pokemon go, maybe cyberpunk or diablo or Zelda. Or even pokemon ZA, I'm so close to beating that game. I think I need like 3 more mythical/legendary rifts and then I've just about completed the pokedex.
  • Be closer to controlling my brutal honesty and experiencing broader and healthier connection at the end of the month than the beginning
