So what did I achieve today?

ChrisSenior Contributor13 Dec 2014, 5:32 pm AEDT

So what did I achieve today?

Well I got dressed! hurray for me, the first time in two days

I made my bed Hurray for me. My bedroom looks tidy

I cleaned my ensuite Double hurry for me. It badly needed doing.

I cleaned gingers cat litter. Im sure he was pleased!

On a serious note I acknowledged suicidal thoughts as just that thoughts. I didn't act on them

I somehow worked through the stress and agitation I felt

I had a sleep on the bed, but only for an hour, not the whole afternoon.

So how do I feel now? OK safe. Pleased with myself that I did accomplish something today.

Re: So what did I achieve today?

Huzzah, something else I just did: I Made A Plan!

I've just staggered back from the stupourmarket. Got things I didn't mean to, forgot things i really wanted, but found something I wanted but didn't expect to see: boxes of strings of solar-powered fairylights. Yay!

Bought a couple of sets (okay, so I won't eat on a couple of days this week ... wanted to try the 5/2 Diet anyway!) Now, tomorrow, I just need to finish trimming the hedge, and get the lights in place to charge, and then by Tuesday night I'll be set and charged!

(I'm not a Xtian, but the feast days existed before that church anyway. And they're not in the colours I wanted -- I really wanted just red, green and gold, which to me are *the* colours for olde-worlde Yule -- but bugger that, they *twinkle* !!)

Now I just have to finish the hedge. Now I just have to bloody *do* it.

Hey Aonaran. Great work with the BMI reduction. You must have great will power

I'm sure that hedge will happen too. Good for you for feeling so positive.

Ellie.

Re: So what did I achieve today?

Hey Aonaran, it's sounds to me like you have accomplished a great deal. 9kg loss in one month is a huge achievement.I battle with my weight and the only direction it is going is up!(making rum balls for the family, then eating them isn't helping!) Reformatting a book is another big win for you. as far as the hedge is concerned, it's half finished isn't it? Won't take long to do the other bit!

Low go get that kitten Seuss. They are the best companion.I got my Suzy from the rspca, and she definitely chose me.I can't explain what she ment to me,she was so knowing.I would wake up and she would be asleep next to me,head on the pillow,paws crossed and touching me,She died suddenly,and I still miss her terribly.Ginger will be 4 in January.What a character is he.He saw me coming.I had never seen such a beautiful baby.very curious,very bold,very naughty!he has a few bad habits,which I wil tell you about another time.Go get that baby, and share the love with each other.

Re: So what did I achieve today?

So. What did I achieve today? Not much. I was drinking my coffee when my son walked in! So that meant sit and listen. Went on till midday, by which time I felt stressed out. That was the end of me. Still it's 6.40 there's still time to make those pesky rum balls!
