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!

Thinking of you. Best wishes for safe travels.

1) Prised myself out of my house with a crowbar, despite nowhere near enough sleep and I DON'T WANNAS

2) Got to physiotherapist appointment on time

3) Was graceful to an egregious mansplainer (another patient in the physiotherapists's waiting room) WHO WAS WRONG

4) Takeaway hot chocolate

5) Chemist for OTC medications

6) Rice paper rolls

7) Told off a woman who was inappropriate to me on the train (she patted me HARD on my sore arm and said in a sing-song voice dripping with condescension
"You're a brave girl!")

8) ATM

9) Post office for banking

10) Posted/commented to Facebook a bunch

11) applied antifungal cream x 2

12) Called the police on my next-door neighbours who were having a fight, *****yet again*****. I think I've called the police on them for physical fights... maybe every three months between 2011 and 2017? Their fights sound bad enough that I am genuinely concerned for the physical safety of the people involved.
[note to US people: it's safer to call the police in Australia, they are *much* less likely to shoot people than they are in the US]

Go you! Much self-care (and self-defence, hmph).

[redsixwing]

Eeeek. Go you!

Used my defensive driving skills. Still honked at the asshat who decided swerving from behind to get in front of me in the last car-length-and-a-half of the merge was a good idea.

Pried myself out of bed this morning despite having A Flat Day. Got breakfast, largely as a treat for same.

Did not panic when going past the major accident on the way to work this morning. (I'm no longer as fearful as I was, but stuff like that I can sort of feel it trying to claw its way out again.)

[nanila]

Oof. Well done for motivating, and for mastering panic.

Helped an early morning get off to a solid start.

Finished a tutorial on making shiny image buttons for websites. Promptly made a gajillion virtual "identity charms" for some specific social media uses.

Observed some cat behavior, and started the process of dealing with it.

Fed myself.

[nanila]

Lots of good work there. Go you!

Was only late five minutes to a staff meeting, despite the ass that kept honking at me while I was trying to safely turn left on a difficult corner and then struck me with his vehicle when I didn't go.

[nanila]

struck me with his vehicle when I didn't go

Crikey! I hope you're OK.

[silveradept]

It was, thankfully, only a paint swap at low speeds instead of proper road rage, but it was not a great start to that morning.

[azurelunatic]

!!!

What in the hell, and I certainly hope the ass gets what's coming.
