A HabitCal question
Posted: Sat Jul 30, 2011 9:55 am
I've used HabitCal for quite a while now, and I'm thinking I'd like to change some of the categories I use. Thing is, I don't know how, particularly, to give a category a new name, or stop using an old category and start a new one, without losing the record of what I did in previous months.
For example, I have a category called "BOOK". Designed to encourage me to engage in reading from a real book every day, and particularly that I might choose something I wanted (or at least part of me wanted) to study. Now, some days I spend some intense time studying stuff of real value - on-line. It isn't shallow ephemera, it might take so much time that I don't also read a book, and I thought "how about dropping the "BOOK" category and re-naming it or replacing it with "STUDY"?"
It's also an issue of how unwieldy HabitCal becomes when you have 10 or so things to track. Likewise on exercise - I've got yoga, isometrics, rower all listed. I don't row now, I cycle instead. umbrella term like "cardio" or "aerobic" would cover both - but i don't want to lose the data from "rower"
Oh this has been long! Anyone know how I address this?
