Daily Achievements!

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.

  • took recycling out
  • took rubbish out
  • downloaded files onto usb stick to take to library and print as stupid printer wont print bw til I replace yellow and cyan , think it will be in dump asking for new ink ffs.. ok same 'ole , why buy colour if not using ? why replace ink when same cost as new printer? think might get a laser printer. not feeling rich tho..
  • burned rubbish with my details on it in wood heater (ok from parcels) dont want people looking in rubbish and finding my phone number etc lol
  • ok, shave and shower next. then in couple hours time , have a few ph calls I should make
  • then library to do printing, ha.
  • then i can plan what to say/ask dr on wednesday and plan trip to cardiologist thurs a bit so can fit a few other things in, like finding a Bunnings thats not too out of the way, or getting oysters on way home, or getting train into city to get a refund on bus card I bought last year. Around when I bought it, they brought in free travel for oldies, so best to get my $ back, lol

Re: Daily Achievements!

Well done @TAB . I print at the local library too. And have a shredder for stuff with personal information.

Re: Daily Achievements!

thanks @Dimity going back to last year re library for printing, was going to say 10 years. I do it if inbetween printers or need better quality. if I need quantity, i go to office national or whatever. I never thought I could justify a shredder, wouldnt use it enough, think.

am thinking about a black and white laser printer, but would need to keep old printer for copier and scanner as it just prints apparently re cheapest ones

Re: Daily Achievements!

Re: Daily Achievements!

I dont have anyone, so am forced to take action once in a while @Glisten lol

got printing, got scripts and otc osteo stuff, got washing machine parts at Post office plus made drs and physio appts also prov said but rang fair trading for a moan as much as anything re washing machine. they kept saying what do you want ? I said just to let it be known that they make crap and are crap to deal with. they basically said I forced the lid on machine open (?)) not sure how that is possible, no locks etc, oh unless crappy hinge broke lol so sent a pic they said oh your fault, ie calling me a liar . like I was there, they werent, just looked at pic I sent and they are happy to say I broke tiny thin bit on hard plastic in hich use through mis-handling ba ha ha har lol .. , clear out a space in Hell for LG ...

Re: Daily Achievements!

Looks like you got a zero footprint @TAB

I agree with you about excessive thread and internet entanglement. I am not overly fond of the new search options and formatting but I also don't know what the whole deal is behind the scenes.

There is a benefit to keeping the threads tidy.... and not too many repeats.

@tyme

@Judi9877 wondering how you are?

@Glisten @Dimity and anyone who wants to join the thread...

Did dishes and a load of lights and whites.

Re: Daily Achievements!

agree re threads I can only find this one after chasing after someone who was also looking for it and was unable to find it so started their own 4 page 'achievements' thread . mentioned it to someone at Sane, they said they preferred new threads Will leave it at that. it ended up in a bit of a run in now that I think back @Appleblossom
