Can I just say \u201cpandemic hygiene\u201d and leave it at that? I mean, how many people slacked off on personal hygiene when they weren\u2019t going anywhere or seeing anyone for days and weeks at a time?<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Today concludes the end of week five, and I am doing well so far. I have a 96% overall completion rate, well above my 70% target. But from here on, I feel like the difficulty is going to increase a lot. For the past five weeks, I have been coasting on some of these habits (like running the dishwasher every night) since we\u2019ve been on vacation. Now that summer is winding down, my daily routine returns to normal, and I can start adding in a lot of the household &amp; health habits that have not been very accessible thus far.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Tomorrow, I want to start to walk daily, but this habit intimidates me. I am a wimp about the weather, so if it\u2019s too hot, too rainy, too cold, etc. I will have to really force myself to get outside. I\u2019m tired of being overweight and in poor condition though, and my 2-year-old dog desperately needs daily walks. I don\u2019t want my bad habits to rub off on him!<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-08eaa0c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"08eaa0c\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5ca8d80\" data-id=\"5ca8d80\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Catching up Sneaking in a blog post between busy days August 14, 2022 It\u2019s been a busy week!
