Just one thing!

[randomling]

It's challenge time again!

(Sorry about there being no post yesterday. I couldn't decide whether a Just One Thing plus the Pride Thread was too much.)

Comment with Just One Thing that you've accomplished in the past twenty-four hours. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!

Remember, nothing too small, too strange or too cryptic! (Or too big, for that matter.)

Vegetable lasagna!

[ashkitty]

That sounds delicious! Go you. :)

[alexseanchai]

It was tasty! But then the power went out, and stayed out for ~ten hours, so while it did get in the fridge I'm not sure how good it is anymore.

[ashkitty]

Oh no! What a pain. But the point is still totally that you made it and ate it!

[kaberett]

Three meals.

[ashkitty]

More than I managed yesterday. ;) Go you!

[sharpeningthebones]

I have not done it yet but I am heading out the door to do so now:

Going out with family for dinner and (ideally) not killing anyone.

[othersideofthis]

Congrats! I remember many of those moments when I lived closer to my family, and going out with them deserves kudos!

[linguology]

Man do I know that feeling. Go you!

[inkstone]

Trip to the dentist for a cleaning & check-up. No cavities! And they told me I had good hygiene!

[ashkitty]

Woo! That is the kind of thing you never get too old for, seriously. ;)

[linguology]

Hooray! That's always awesome to hear.

[liv]

Oh, well done. I am so bad at getting round to organizing dental care, so bad, and by now I'm sure they'll yell at me if I do make an appointment. But yay for you having good hygiene and no cavities.

[ashkitty]

I was SERIOUS BADASS you guys. I've got all but one of those scary, annoying little 'hanging over your head' things taken care of, and hit my word count, and then went for a run. I do not know who this strange imposter version of me even is, but I would like her to stick around for a while.

(And then I went to the pub. Not necessarily an accomplishment, but it was fun.)

[linguology]

That is completely awesome, go you!!!

[sylvaine]

Wow, that is fabulous! Go you! :D

[liv]

Multiple awesome things for one day! Badass indeed. And it's really nice to enjoy relaxation that you know you deserve.

Yesterday, I pointed out to my boss that I am massively overwhelmed.

She pointed out that with almost 90 loans on me, I'm allowed to be overwhelmed. And then she gave me a definitive date for when I will no longer be doing three people's work. (For the first time since...sometime in November?)

Today, I pointed out that the system we use for reward/punishment is...borked, to say the least. She agrees with my assessment and is going to be trying to get it reworked.

[amianym]

That sounds like such a tough conversation to have - very well done!

[zarhooie]

Yay! GO YOU.

[sylvaine]

Wow, that sounds like two really tough conversations to have. Good for you!

[liv]

I'm major impressed, actually addressing problems at work when that means confronting people who have power of you, that's a real accomplishment. Glad to know your boss is supportive and change may happen.

[amianym]

I went home when my anxiety spiked to the point where I needed to.

(now to learn to go home when my *pain* spikes.)

[ashkitty]

Way to go you for recognising your limits and coping. :)

[othersideofthis]

I finished up a project at work that I'd been ignoring because it was tedious and not something that I wanted to do.

I also remembered to send out my first mortgage payment!

[sylvaine]

Yay for getting tedious work over with!

[ashkitty]

Those are both very full of win! go you. :)

[liv]

Congrats on becoming a homeowner, and well done on remembering to pay that bill. Also finishing tedious project, yay, those things are so much better when they're done than when you have to do them.

[monksandbones]

I got myself prepared for my trip back to the distant reaches of the motherland for the rest of the summer, minus the things that have to go in my suitcase in the morning. Yaaaaaay!

[ashkitty]

Ooh, well done! Packing and getting ready for trips is so stressful. Hope you have a good trip!

[liv]

Definitely second this. Anyone who can manage packing without a meltdown deserves real kudos!

[linguology]

I've now spent three days back at my mom's, and not one single person has been strangled!

[zarhooie]

That is most excellent!

[zarhooie]

I got the green count under 20 for the first time in months. I have no illusions that it will stay there, but I am very, very hopeful.

[liv]

Yaaaaay degreening. Now there's nothing left on the board but those tangly importer bugs, which is really pleasing to see. I always feel good when one of the triumvirate does a board run, many thanks for that.

[sylvaine]

Sat myself down in the library and started studying for the upcoming exams!

[badfalcon]

good luck with your exams! :)

[sylvaine]

Thank you!

[linguology]

That's great, good luck on your exams!

[liv]

I hope both the studying and the exams go well. Getting started can often be the hardest bit.

[pebblerocker]

I survived work.

[sylvaine]

Congrats! *hugs*

[omnicat]

Totally underappreciated skill. Go you!

[badfalcon]

I revamped my old website - new layout, deleted all the content to start it from scratch, and started writing new content for it :)

[sylvaine]

Wow, awesome!

[omnicat]

I went to bed on time last night despite my period fucking up my internal clock to such a degree that I literally do not feel an inkling of tiredness right up until the moment I pass out.

[monksandbones]

Ooh, yay you for recognizing that your reproductive system was causing the problem and taking appropriate action. That can be hard sometimes!

[randomling]

Managed to go to my therapy appointment. And did not kill my therapist, or myself, or anyone else.

[pretty_panther]

Melted chocolate and made teddy bear chocolate molds for my brother's birthday. They went down a treat! XD
