Just One Thing! (17 August 2016)

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!

Rang receptionists and made 3 medical appts.

Asked four different people for emotional support when I was feeling really despairing about my chronic illnesses.

Ate food.

Decided to postpone taking new physical health meds for a few days until I was feeling less stressed and better able to cope with potential side effects.

After talking to a friend, realised at least part of my problems were probably from quitting sugar two weeks ago. (apparently quitting sugar can cause Anger; Anxiety; Appetite changes; Cravings; Depression; Dizziness; Fatigue; Flu-like; Headaches; Insomnia; Irritability;
Mood swings; Shakes; Sleep changes)

Did some laundry.

Filled the cat fud bowl.

Patted the cats.

You did good. You are brave to reach out to people and cats. Health work is hard and you did some of that too.

I went to work yesterday even though I badly did not want to, and I got through the whole day.

All the things I've done lately have been things I don't want to do -- the hardest kind! Well done, us. :)

Well done indeed. I think you can be proud of yourself for hanging in there with all those not fun things.

Cooked a food out of the veggies a friend brought over! Washed some of the things!

Yay food!

Some of the things is a mighty accomplishment.

Agreed. Making a food is good too.

I opened some mail that turned out to be rather urgent if I want to continue having a community garden plot, made a phone call, got the bureaucracy bit out of the made, enlisted help, and made a plan for dealing with the things that have to be dealt with at the garden. The mail and phone is significantly harder than the required weeding. (I say BEFORE the weeding. We'll see how it goes.)

That sounds like a major bit of work to achieve! May the weeding go more smoothly.

Phone calls! Phone calls can be hard.

Decompensated.
Panicked.

Received reassurance.

Put words together.

Got my launderizer fixed, and did some laundry!

Made a new happy icon.

Called my bff.

I am so glad that you got reassurance, that there were productive and happy and friendly things in the rest of your day.

Tried to self-care some after an attack of angry brainweasels. Think I might have managed it. Or at least helped the cause some.

Fucking brainweasels.
