That heater was outside the tarp shelter.

Totally get the "felt like a chore" thing. My buddy was the same with a basic fitness app, just checking boxes. He switched to one with silly badges and a goofy character that cheers, and now he's actually consistent. Sometimes the little bit of fun is what makes a habit stick, not just the efficiency.

Yeah, the fridge thing is just the start. Last week I found the TV remote in the bathroom cabinet. My toothbrush was in a plant pot. It gets to the point where you check the microwave for your wallet before you leave the house. The real kicker is when you're the only one living there.
