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!

Had scheduled telephone appt with counsellor. Talked about wanting to be more assertive with strangers, acquaintances, friends.

Phoned a local cinema to find out if the rumours that they'd replaced their old, hideously uncomfortable cinema seats with new comfier seats were true. They were!

Emailed my SO to say, hey, local cinema seats are no longer torture devices, we should check them out some time.

Well done on the self-care and the detective work! I hope you get to see a film in the revamped cinema.

Recognised that I was exhausted and went to bed at 9:30 PM so I could get nine hours of sleep.

Hooray sleep!

Got another good bit of news about work committees that I'm on.

Had to cut off a few potential runaway trains of thought before they could run too far, all related to moving in the direction of permanent resolutions to my current major situation.

Got help and moral support from my partner.

[azurelunatic]

Those potentially runaway thought loops sound very unhelpful.

Hurrah for good news, careful monitoring of brain patterns, and seeking solace in the right places.

Helpful therapist visit.

Was able to refuse help politely while in pain. (Slippery floor, door with more inertia than my feet had friction. And the periodic reminder that while an offer to help up someone who has fallen is only neighborly, it may be safest if you just block traffic while the person gets themselves back up.)

Asked for an introduction to someone at a company I am applying to.

Housework.

Got information lined up to make some calls.

Did beta work, for something that I enjoyed.

Took care of myself.

Took care of my partner.

Lovely dinner with some people I haven't seen for a while.

Nice phone and Skype chats with my partner. It feels like I fall asleep better when they're there.

Met my exercise goals for the day and caught up on steps from the day before.

Well done on all that self care, adulting, and beneficial socialising.
