Ok. All January I tracked as much as I could. I think I tracked everything, but its in various places. So here is the first installment. Its on google spreadsheets. It tracks my public transit use because I wanted to see how much gasoline I used in public transit every year. I work four 10 hour days, so that is why there are many "no work" days. And yes, its quite tiring. I spend most Fridays catching up on sleep. I also tracked all the times I ate out. I didn’t track all non-local food purchases used in cooking, because that would be a bit much and I didn’t think to do it until half way through the month. I will do it in February. You’ll notice I take all sorts of public transit. This is how I spice up my life. I usually walk to the subway station except on days when it is really, really cold and my face or toes hurt. Then I catch the bus to get to the subway. There are half a dozen ways to get to work so depending on my mood I try them all out. I also live far from work (1 hour away - one way) and the subway in Philly is not extensive. All my "didn’t go anywhere" entries mean I didn’t use public transit.
I spent alot of time at home because I was either sick/and or it was too cold to go anywhere. I didn’t track where my husband went and what he ate and where he ate it. But since he quit his job, he has been busy cleaning and scrubbing our place and turning into a domestic diva while making sure he spends no money (which includes sitting in a cold house with the heat turned off). He turned the heat on about twice this month because the temperature really dipped and with out single paned windows our rooms are quite chilly.
I will post the other micromaneged things later today or over the weekend.
