Daily Achievements!

Hi forum friends! I've decided to start a new thread on Daily Achievements because I suffer from depression as one of my mental illness and that means it's often hard for me to remind myself that I do actually things in my day, no matter how small they may be. I thought forumites could post here a daily achievement or 2 so we can remind ourselves that we have done something good each day. It can be as big or as small as you like. Just as long as what you did makes you proud and happy.

I'm tagging @roses @Bow @Shaz51 @BPDSurvivor @saltandpepper @Daisydreamer @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @TideisTurning @Former-Member @frog @Sans911 @outlander

in case you might be interested as well as anyone else who wants to join in!

So, to get this discussion started, I'll post my achievements today which are:

- I had a gorgeous cup of tea which helped me deal with some anxiety I was experiencing;

- I paid my car registration which was due today.


See what I mean about achievements? Mine may seem small or irrelevant to some people but to me, because I have depression, these are actually major in the scheme of my life. I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Today I managed to complete a set of life altering tasks that I've been putting off, trying to get the wherewithall to do:

1. Researched, then phoned the most effective operator for my purposes to sell and remove my car.

2. De registered my car - takes a short while as was done online.

3. Removed and dealt with the things that needed removing from said car.

4. Organised for pickup and payment of car.

5. Cancelled insurance and RACQ everythings.

6. Swept and tidied the car sized space in the garage.

7. Am in process of mourning the loss of my car.

8. It's bigger than just the car - it's the loss of my ability to drive, and my old life. I've had a car and drivers license, plus the freedom it meant to me for not quite 50 years.

9. And the main reason I've had to lose this thing too is due to the deterioration of the orginial damage done to my spine during the SA 50 years ago.

10. I am so very, very sad.

Re: Daily Achievements!

That must be tough @Last-Lament I am sorry that has happened and I hope your future can be brighter than expected.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Hi @Last-Lament
I’m really sorry for the loss of your car. My car has been sick for 5 months and I’ve had to borrow my sisters until I can get the courage up to go for a loan.
Sending good thoughts your way!

Hi @Eve7
I love scones, especially with jam and cream! I’ve got a thing going with sultana scones and butter at the moment for afternoon tea so you’re making me hungry right now. I’m so glad you made some. Well done!
