Small achievement you managed to do today....How did it make you feel? Did it help you feel better today?

[Ggrand]

Hi everyone..

Their are days when just getting out of bed is a huge achievement...Other days we can achieve things like washing up the dishes or clothes, sweeping the floors, mopping the floors..very mundane and automatic robot like chores for the mentally well...They do these chores without even thinking about them...for people struggling with their mental health..these are huge tasks...

Very often I’ll get my vacuum cleaner out to vacuum ...then it will sit their for days, me looking at it, walking over it...until I can get motivated enough to vacuum..after I do find the motivation to vacuum...I am pleased with myself...
Right now I have a small foot cycling peddle machine, sitting on my front veranda..I got it out last week..to start exercising..it’s still their, I’m still looking at it...My thoughts each night is I’ll use it for a few minutes tomorrow..

My car hasn’t been washed getting close to a year now I think...Today I did managed to wash it....and discovered that it has a nice shine on it.....I did it...I achieved something positive today..which made me feel better in myself...

Have you achieved a little something today...and how did it make you feel...If you want to share that achievement it might make other people a bit more motivated to achieve something they need/want to do..

Looking forward to hearing about your achievement....and how it made you feel..

Little steps and achievements can lead to bigger steps..and bigger achievements...

My kindest and most caring thoughts...everyone.
Grandy...

Hello All. My achievement for yesterday was sorting out some more things I no longer use or need. Ready to give away items to those who may a usage for them. Simplifying my life hasn't been a challenge to me at all which I'm so grateful for. Never had much.. The less I've got the easier it's for me help myself. I don't wish to be a slave to unused things. Feels really good to clear out unnecessary things. Regards.

guest05 that is really powerful. not easy to do, and a major achievement

u are wise and perceptive, i learnt a lot from ur post. we shouldn't - but often do - become slaves to our posessions.

Great step getting rid of ur unnecessary items...

i made my own hot apple cider today

it was beautiful

i also made an apple crumble.

I called Lifeline for help

and i took out the trash

[Guest_1643]

i think i made apple cider by accident - i boil apples to make an apple crumble - and the leftover drained water, with maple cyrup, cinammon, orange zest and the juice of the apples, was pretty much how they make cider...

this good drink is my magic elixir... it really calmed me down and was delish

Save to memory, and repeat, for more soothing times.

Sleepy I like the liquid after boiling apples mine is more like mulled apple juice not cider

I managed to set up a collapsible table without getting partner to help but I did use YouTube.

these tables should be so easy but there are no instructions. So I felt good but it doesn’t mean next time I can do it.

[Guest_1643]

well done quirky great success with that table:)

i think it was more mulled apple juice... (is cider more with apple juice)?

It was so good 🙂

l've been minimizing 2-3 yrs now well aware of the slavery to modern life ideals and possessions for yrs and the un'necessity of so much these days . lt's a very weird process though and sometimes you end up gathering a flock first, in order to be able to look around and sift through what you do or don't need and want in your life, then you can start ungathering . What we thought we needed or wanted yesterday we realize today we don't at all and it wasn't cut out to be .

My dream is to get completely back of the grid in every way , l was there once, l need to go back absolutely as soon as l possibly can, and stay there this time..

My best little achievement in wks was 2 supermarket but still special pizza's l spotted the other day , they dpn't get these in very often. l was so tired yesterday l finished work at one , came in watched a movie then dressed up one pizza with all my fav' stuff and went to bed with my yummy pizza and some wine , the ultimate , for 5 bucks. And l'm still there this morning , gotta get up for work in a minute haha, damn it, and around we go hey.

I'm saving the other one for the wkend. Can't wait.

After dropping of grandson at school, he suddenly realised he didn’t get a bunch of flowers for his Anzac ceremony. So we all get back in car , head back home pick a huge bunch of colourful flowers and head back to school .

Hello everyone...

Rx I have decluttered a lot over the past year..My new golden rule..if I don’t use it for 12 months I don’t need it..so into the charity bin it goes...

Yummy the juice after boiling apples....I Caslon like the juice after boiling spinach, with a little salt n pepper it’s yummy and healthy...

Harpbird, That was so kind of you to drive back home for some flowers for your grandsons Anzac Ceremony today..I think Anzac is something that need to be kept alive for our future generations to understand about the sacrifices these men, women and animals made for our freedom...

Quirky, you done good putting that table together on your own...They look simple but are really complicated to do...

My achievement Yesterday was I made some chilli oil..I have 3 chilli plants overloaded with red chillies and they are really hot..Used the oil in a salad dressing last night..it was made it hot and warmed me up...

Guest 05, I like what you said..you don’t want to be a slave to unused things...I feel the same about my ornaments, I have donated about half of them and still got to many...

Ypla...Dancing until you couldn’t dance no more sound fun but tiring..I hope the next day you weren’t very sore..

Paws...I know nothing about computers except how to turn the on or off...I use my IPad for everything I do on the internet...

Well done to everyone for all your achievements..

love and hugs to everyone..

Grandy..
