Just One Thing! (11 September 2014)

[kate]

It's challenge time!

Comment with Just One Thing that you've accomplished in the past 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling 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!

Went to bed early last night instead of working more.

go you for self-care!

[ashkitty]

Yay for rest!

Did not attempt to stay at work [too long] once the lights got too bright and the typing too loud and the standing too wobbly. Called for a ride home instead of attempting to drive myself.

I hate being sick.

*solidarity fistbump*

go you for taking care of yourself

[alwayswondered]

I applied for a job for the first time in six years.

[untonuggan]

*sends good thoughts* and also wow that's a big accomplishment

[alwayswondered]

Thank you! It was more for practice than anything else—I'm pretty sure I won't get it—but the first one is the hardest, right?

[cosmolinguist]

Awesome! Applying for jobs is top of the list of things I'm not doing and need to do, so I have all the respect for this.

[alwayswondered]

I have really needed to do it for a while. I hope some good opportunities come your way soon!

[nanila]

That's a massive step. I applaud you.

[alwayswondered]

Thanks. :) I'm 99% certain I won't get it, but it was a good practice run.

Turned in my MAT1B form at work, so that HR now officially know I'm going on maternity leave in a few months.

[untonuggan]

\o/

go you!

[nanila]

Thank you! Now to send the e-mail I've been sitting on for several days with actual leave dates in it. *chews nails nervously*

[untonuggan]

cleaned walls of shower! they are shiny!

[cosmolinguist]

Shiny showers are the best. :)

[nanila]

How satisfying it will be to have a shower in it tomorrow!

[forestofglory]

Got blood drawn.

I am actually excited to get to the gym. What is this madness, I ask you. (Because it will help me work out some of this anxiety and I would so like less of that.) Also, had an interview to work with a temp agency. \o/ Also, have a temp data entry job next week! Today's so good I gotta go exhaust myself of anxiety so I can cope if a shoe drops.

[cosmolinguist]

I'm glad it's so good! (And I know what you mean about needing to work off anxiety. I need to get back into that habit myself.)

[syntaxofthings]

I didn't realize how important it was until recently, but now I'm glad I did. And I have an appointment for Saturday morning to learn more about my Y and work on fitness stuff, hurray!

[ashkitty]

That is excellent!

[cosmolinguist]

Found something that my husband wanted, which was exactly where I said it was, despite his insistence that he'd already looked there and it definitely wasn't there. :)

[ashkitty]

Cooked dinner for my housemates and did the washing up.

[dhampyresa]

Congrats!

[dhampyresa]

Learned stuff about myself.
Finished a book!

I'm genderqueer and identify more as male than female, but I've always been been sort of like, "meh, I like men's clothes better than women's, but I'll work on trying to pass later, that's work and I'm too lazy." I need new pants anyway, so I went out to Kohl's and tried on men's stuff to see what sort of sizes I wear while I was there.

[alwayswondered]

*belated fistbump* I hope you had a good experience and learned some useful stuff.
