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!

Despite an all-day anxiety attack:

Let scooter repair guy in to replace inflatable tyres with solids, and counted out correct change to pay him

Told gardeners what to do and what NOT to do (don't use weed killer because I have frogs, don't prune tree X), counted out correct change to pay them

Phoned medical receptionists and cancelled appts x 3

Phoned transport service and cancelled transport x 1

Listed my old scooter tyres on Gumtree because brand new, never used

Stripped dirty sheets off bed

Shook out and bundled up 4 sheets for SO to take away and wash tommorrow

Loaded dishwasher

Washed some socks

Tidied up one room a little

Tidied up a different room a little

Listened supportively to a friend's rant about their family

Supported boyfriend through a scary thing (which ended up being less scary than he'd expected).

Practiced a thing. Self-care.

Picked up my new keyboard from FedEx. It is as splendid as I expected. Still getting used to the mechanical switches, though.

Practiced emotional regulation today, both from upset and from anxious, and promised myself that I do not have to do everything all at once.

(Breathe.)

Also, wore a ladybug on my head today.

Talked to my doctor's office.

Chased down an emotional reaction with potentially disruptive knock-on effects that seemed out of place; got it placed a little better, and hopefully the next time the inciting event occurs, maybe the brainweasels will step the heck off.

Realized, to my surprise, that there were additional circumstances under which I would be okay with a specific thing happening, even if it would have to be handled super carefully and would have a very large chance of going Very Wrong. Realized how Wrong it could go, so it would probably be a very bad idea. But. Alternatives.

Didn't take a nap for the first time in pretty much forever.

Laundry & mail.

Wrote more on the Fun With Hospitals saga.

Got a bit of reading, and talking about books, in.
