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!

I finished and delivered a quilt!

Technically, middlest delivered it, at the birthday party for the recipient. Merely a year past deadline, so convenient that these children have birthdays every year!

Yay! Quilt! Is it soft and snuggly?

[fred_mouse]

Very! It was started because the kids found a 'perfect' piece of polar fleece for the backing. The front is appliqué (old white school polo shirts tie dyed) on to a section of an old cotton sheet (also tie-dyed), so soft on both sides!

[alatefeline]

That sounds like a wonderful quilt. I bet it'll be treasured for a very long time. Congrats on finishing it.

Thank you!

Tidied kitchen sink and kitchen bench a bunch.

Took out recycling a bunch.

Loaded dishwasher.

Laundry x 1.

Was supportive and great company to SO when his Depression was bad.

You did a lot of chores.

And some hard emotional labor. I've been struggling with being really present to people in my non-work non-online life recently, and I think it's really good that you did this and noticed yourself doing this.

Made time to sit in the (rare) sunshine for half an hour and just read.

[fred_mouse]

What a lovely thing to find time for!

[alatefeline]

Yes. And important to keep my brain working properly.

... I'm a bit of a cat person, so my partner jokes that I need sunbeams to recharge my laser eyes. :D

I'm looking forward to the local weather being conducive to such behaviour. This winter just gone (southern hemisphere) has really been hard.

[alatefeline]

Enjoy your spring!

I made an attempt to meet friends. It failed based on logistical things nobody could control.

I took care of some chore bits.

I wrote my way out of one block and into another. Am considering switching gears entirely to see if that helps.

[alatefeline]

Ooof. Trying and falling down and trying again, and doing maintenance, can be very frustrating, but I'm also impressed that you are doing those things, because it's hard and it's necessary.

Took the kids to a manic, bouncy castle-containing birthday party by myself. Managed to have a nice chat with a fellow parent.
