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.

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!

Somehow I have managed to stay in an almost unprecedented good mood despite not sleeping worth a flip for the last THREE days. Even God seemed determined to wake J and I up early today (despite the fact that he closed and we were up to like 2 in the morning again last night). He used the winds to blow our door open to the point that dishes were even knocked by the wind. But I stayed happy and productive, though tired, anyway!

It's kinda weird, honestly. The last few cycles I've been a bitca the week before, but this last week... I don't know. I think maybe it has to do with shifting through all my old stories and seeing the depths of which I was used at and I guess coming to understand that none of what happened as I was growing up was my fault... It's a freeing experience, to realize that.

Well done on managing to maintain a good mood under such pressures!

Encouraged housemate to organize their room instead of making dinner (at their request), and reinforced that by having a dinner plan already in hand.

Located some markers and the apparently one stack of post-its in the house

Viewed other partner's brand-new room arrangement

Used the new vegetable slicer with great success!

(We appear to have time traveled a few months in advance. Which is extra ironic for me, as I managed not to notice a typo on a different post and defaulted to "helpful" rather than landing on "appreciating the clause about the potential for typos having a typo.")

I finally got the correct olives today. And I had an idea for a possible display, but the language needs workshopping, because I want it to somehow be both gently mocking and a sincere invitation are the same time, and I'm pretty sure one of those two will have to be suppressed.

Lol, it seems I was in planning mode when I typed the date. I was on the train sorting out project meetings for the next three months! Fixed now.

Hooray, correct olives! 🫒

Fit in wiping a bunch of external hard drives for student project use, along with a colleague, around a lot of student meetings and our inaugural departmental Lego club meeting.
