Just One Thing (29 July 2020)

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!

Booked a week off work at the start of September, and made a plan for extremely simple meals during that week. (I intend to do lots and lots of local-history reading and writing.)

Oooh! That sounds lovely, good job taking care of yourself!

It’s mainly because I have a big writing deadline coming up next year and I want to not be frantically doing things last-minute, but I guess that is taking care of myself really, so yes :D

Removed a toxic person from my Twitter feed. We barely interacted but he has treated others poorly and I just can't anymore.

Another good therapy session in which she asked me a lot of pointed questions that has me reconsidering things.

Responded to some comments elsewhere in the internet.

Well done for reducing the toxicity of your online space. And yay, therapy and interacting with your community!

Had my first haircut and professional dye job since January. It felt really good.

Supported a younger female academic with preparing a fellowship application.

[nou]

Yay for all that, and fingers crossed for her application!

Talked again w/some neighbors on the phone, and a sister-in-law of one of my neighbors. That was fun.





Started packing for the move back to my apartment. I'm not far away at all so not much packing needs to be done. As a matter of fact my parents and I are in the same city. Looking forward to moving back!

Yay for communication. And for the potential of getting back into your own space.

I asked a relevant question during a symposium.

I continued to cope without my phone.

Read some more Homestuck.

Made plans for the heat.
