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.

I fixed someone else’s tables in Word.

Oh, well done. That's always a trip to work with.

[azurelunatic]

Congratulations. It's amazing how many ways there are to make a mess with those.

Got out of bed when my alarm went off;

Ordered face masks online for friends;

Rinsed out 17 iced tea bottles and put them in the recycling bin;

Emptied my street letter box of mail - quite a task, it's really hard on my hips because it requires squatting;

Laundry;

Called my partner to say "Hey, it's a really lovely sunny day, why not take a book and a cup of tea and sit in your backyard in the sun" [the rainy overcast weather the past few weeks has really been getting to him];

Sorted mail into the recycling bin;

Put stuff outside for Buy Nothing collections;

Messaged Buy Nothing people re collections;

Called my Drs surgery to say "hey, my form from the Dr ordering blood tests got ruined by heavy rain, can you email it to me?"

Called my Drs surgery again to say "hey, mail that goes to my street address gets damaged by heavy rain, can you please send it to my PO box instead?" and followed up with an email;

Showered and washed my hair

Sounds like a busy day! Sympathy over having to put up with a leaky pain-inducing mailbox.

Ran a meeting with a very poor Internet connection. Managed to keep on topic.

[nou]

You are the hero of meetings!

Got up from my nap on time. Took out trash, checked mail & walked the dog.

Once I cool down a bit I'm going to try to work out. Then take a shower as we just got a new shower rod & curtain. Very exciting!

[nou]

Very exciting indeed! What colour is the new shower curtain?

[readera]

Its a galaxy pattern/picture. Mostly blue with gold & silver stars/galexys.

[nou]

Ooooh lovely!

[readera]

It is!

Got up early so I could talk to the ISP repair tech that came to fix our modem issues.

Therapy session! It went really well.

Chatted with a friend.

Took a shower.

[nou]

Hurrah for many varied achievements!

[silveradept]

I think I did at least marginally okay at not projecting hurts instilled by a past partner onto the current partner in dealing with a situation that appeared similar.

[nou]

That sounds very hard — well done!

Canceled the non-essential trip that was coming up in 3 weeks.

Set up the new cable-modem. The entire household is hopeful that this will solve the intermittent internet outages.

Helped sort a small mound of boxes mostly being kept for their information into needed, box cutter, and recycle.

Fingers crossed for the new internet machine!
