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.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Hey @TAB Maybe my Arthritis would be better in warm Weather...

The rest of my Body & Mind cannot stand the Heat of Summer.

30C is barely tolerable, consistent 40C's+ in Summers here is Not.

The Average Temperatures (Yearly) have got Consistently Higher/ Hotter - According to Official Weather Bureau Stats.

So when people say "We didn't have any Summer" - Are you kidding? That's Not Funny....

I was out working in 40C with Clients, on many days - We all flaked out, & couldn't last the distance.

My Mum who lives in Sydney - Said that she would never come to Perth (to visit me) in February Ever Again (too Hot).

Now she says she will never fly in a plane ever again - So she won't come at all....

Re: Daily Achievements!

yeah I dont know @Adge summer didnt seem as bad as it has been here. Could be wrong. I was a couple hours further north for most of december last year lost count of days over 38 and 40 . I dont do it that well either. Should be inside with aircon or at least in shade and not doing anything physical

Re: Daily Achievements!

Sounds good @TAB

@Adge , I want to live somewhere like that. I was thinking Queensland but the ticks and snakes might be a problem for my dogs (I'm planning to have more dogs) and I don't like the idea of using chemicals on my dogs (for the ticks).

I'm off to make some food now.

Re: Daily Achievements!

I've been fairly frequent with getting my Shopping Done recently @TAB @Arizona Except many times I have no energy to go - So keep putting it off, & almost go without stuff.

My DES Jobsearch Provider decided to pressure me to do 2 days of solid Online Induction Training - Just a few days before I start Full-Time (6 weeks) Census Job.

I told them I cannot fit anything else in, in the next 7 to 10 days - They still think & insist that I can do it now...

Re: Daily Achievements!

You can get lots of Ticks here too @Arizona I've had several.

I've seen them walking up people's backs, in the nature park - I flicked them off.

Plenty of poisonous Snakes here too - The Bonus is: No Leeches....

Leeches need warm humid conditions, there's lots of Leches in Qld & NSW.

It's too dry & hot for Leeches here....

Re: Daily Achievements!

that's pretty useless of them @Adge just do the job and if you dont have time for other stuff just dont do it. They will have to sort it out or centrelink or someone will

In response to: Re: Daily Achievements!

Re: Daily Achievements!

Yep @TAB I'm trying to Stand my Ground - It's hard with these people.

The Training is to be a Lollipop Person (Traffic Management) - After my 6 week Census Job.

The Lollipop pay is not too bad - About $27 per hour.

Census Job is Minimum Wage - about $20 per hour (plus Casual Loading).
