UPDATE: Rocked my WDC goals; Other goals, not so much (1/24)
This was an ambitious set of goals this week (it's a real challenge for me to be anything BUT ambitious XD). A very good week for my Writing.com goals, I'm feeling almost reintegrated on the site, which is great. I accomplished all of my priority goals and have determined how to approach my two low-priority ones. My other goals, which this week are some of my lifestyle goals, did not get done -- except for one. Most of these I will likely put on my list of goals for next week because they're kind of integral to setting myself up for success the rest of January and into February.

Writing.com Goals
*BoxCheckB* Read and respond to at least two Newsletters this week
         Extra credit; I read and responded to five Newsletters this week
*BoxCheckR* Participate in community newsfeed posts each day
         Mostly; I missed Tuesday, but that is something I should expect and allow for here and there. Therefore, I am taking this as a win
*BoxCheck* Renew my Writing.com membership
         Complete; This is self-explanatory
*BoxCheck* Draft my general review template
         Complete; I would also like to draft a poetry review template
*BoxCheckB* Complete at least one review this week
         Extra credit: I completed two reviews this week
*Box* Participate in the Question of the Day message forum every morning this week
         Not really; I participated only two days this week. However, I'm not sure that it's necessarily a big priority to me to do this every day. I think I'd rather seek to participate regularly, but not make it a goal to do every day
*Box* View the Daily Flash Fiction Challenge writing prompt each day
         Nope; I may have looked at it once this week, but definitely not more than that; Like above, I'm not sure that this is a big priority to me. I should plan to check in when I feel up to writing a 300-word-or-less story/scene
*BoxCheckB* View monthly writing prompts for this month from my favorite items list
         Extra credit; I not only viewed the directions/prompts for every monthly contest and challenge on my favorites list, I also submitted an entry to one!
*BoxCheckB* Organize my favorite items list
         Complete; I organized it initially and then kept it that way as I added to it
*BoxCheck* Use The Hub and community newsfeed posts to explore and reorient myself with Writing.com
         Complete; I have my Hub all set up and have consistently checked on it, and I feel much better oriented now
*BoxCheckB* Find at least one item, context, or activity to add to my favorite items list
         I added a good handful of things to my favorites list this week

Other Goals
*BoxCheck* Get to bed at 9 or 10 every night
         Done; I've got a good start on correcting my sleep schedule
*Box* Get up at 4 or 5 every morning
         No; I succeeded only one day this week, so this will be a priority goal next week
*Box* Every day this week, follow the morning routine I wrote down for myself
         Partially; I still need to work on this because I did not follow the entirety of my morning routine, but I got a decent start to this most days this week. I'm thinking this will be another priority of next week
*Box* Every day this week, follow the evening routine I wrote down for myself
         No; Not a single day this week ended with my evening routine. This will be ongoing
*Box* Complete at least one housework task every day
         Not really; I succeeded at this one day this week. A work in progress
*Box* Complete at least one organization task every day
         No; I did not get to this any day this week. Work in progress
*Box* Complete at least one task out of my master task list every day
         Barely; I got one master task item on my personal (active) task list, but I did not get it done. Work in progress
*Box* Pack and prepare my things for work the evening before
         No; At least half of my jobs this week came the day of, so there wasn't much outside incentive. However, I also did not do any of the prepping that I could have done even so
*Box* Plan meals for Saturday and Sunday
         Nope; This is still something I need to do, either tonight or by dinner tomorrow
*Box* Plan baking for Saturday
         Sort of but not really; I know that I want to make my classic vanilla bundt cakes, but I have not done any actual planning and preparing, so this is a work in progress
