It's challenge time!

Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished!

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

Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.

Go!

Somedays reading your list makes me feel tired!

Well, I don't do any paid work, and I don't do child-rearing, cooking for children, laundry for children, dishwashing for children, all of which you do...

I'm chuffed you said this. ^_^

I often look at your list of achievements on your personal dreamwidth and go, "Wow, what took you a day would take me a week. or a fortnight."

These days, I outsource a significant amount to eldest, who isn't working outside the home.

When you get out of the house, you fit in far more errands than I'm usually game to attempt, let along achieve.

Thanks. ^_^

Having a powerchair makes some things a lot easier/more possible than they would be on foot.

And for every errand-running day, there are a lot of resting-days at home where not much except toilet visits/showers/food gets achieved.

(It probably says quite a lot about my current level of physical exhaustion that I keep having the thought "wow, I could do so much more housework if I didn't have to spend energy on toilet visits, including the standing-up-while-washing-and-drying-my-hands afterwards.")

By anyone's, I think! Well done. :)

[lilysea]

Well done. :)

Thank you! ^_^

Well, a lot of less-disabled-than-me and non-disabled people manage to do some form of paid work or study as well, both of which are completely off the table for me until/unless my fatigue improves.

That was literally all I achieved yesterday, apart from organising/eating food and taking my meds.

Eh, not on a Saturday. :)

I don't mean to be flippant. I do sympathize; I'm not working or studying for anything either, and have just passed the two-year mark of that being the case.

But managing disability or chronic conditions is at least as much work as most of the full-time jobs I've had. Just a shame it doesn't pay better!

[nanila]

That is a pretty awesome list. :) Well done! \o/

Thank you! ^_^
