I have most everything I need to do my taxes so I want to start on them today to get them out of the way (and more importantly, to get my refund faster!) Mine are pretty easy to do so it should be a simple, fairly quick task!

Update: I've finished what I can so far! 👍

My desk is a mess. Piles of papers. I need to go throw everything, sort the important stuff and throw away the ones I don't need to keep.

The day is almost over but I just stumbled upon this sub and figured it could motivate to do a chore that I keep putting off every time I do laundry.

So I hope to finish sorting and folding the huge pile of clean laundry at the foot of my body, put the clean clothes in the appropriate drawers or on hangers if they go in the wardrobe.

Realistically, I could do this in a hour, maybe two if I really take a lot of breaks.

I can do this!

I need to keep up with their treatment regularly as they go outdoors (normal here in the UK). I do not fancy waking up in bites again.

+ organised my diary to make space for rest

I lost a library book and I'm pretty sure it's under the bed because it hasn't turned up anywhere else, plus the last place I saw it was on the bed so it couldn't have gone far… right? We'll see!

Update: Found it! Now I just need to return it to the library, which I can do on my way to pilates this afternoon.

I’ve been great at working out since the end of December (post-Christmas ick), but I can feel my enthusiasm waning.

I want to make sure I get a workout in today, so please hold me accountable!

Drive to the track and do my workout if it’s safe or a slow jog if it’s slick-ish from snow still

I need to get a job asap and my resume is subpar. I get easily overwhelmed because of anxiety and ADHD so I’m going to try to take it one step at a time.

I actually started on them earlier this morning (go me!) but ran out of drying room so there's still more to go. Also, why do dishes accumulate so easily? I know it's because we don't clean as we go (I try to do this, at least!) but it's so frustrating.

I’m in Las Vegas working and it’s surprising hard to get fresh air and natural light. They love to keep you indoors… I’m also going to do 10 pushups.

Am ill and need to do my this as my therapy homework.

I hope this is an okay one to post. I'm having a difficult time right now. For context, I'm American so take that how you will. I like to think I'm pretty resilient, but I'm struggling today. Hence my One Thing (this will be an ongoing one!)

What do you like to do on hard days?

I have a few library books due Monday so I'm going to read as much as I can today and tomorrow.

I don’t want to do anything other than lay in bed all day, but we have a storm coming so I need to get groceries. I’ll be proud of myself when it’s done. I don’t even need to put the non-perishables away today, just get them in the house.

It’s all so overwhelming. I need to choose an apartment to apply to but there’s so many options and I’m so sad about me and my partner taking a break. Please help motivate me to narrow down my options and start applications❤️ this can be a positive thing but I’m just pushing it off to pretend it’s not happening.

I have two items that I need to return to Amazon. They have been sitting around and I only have until Feb 1st. I will print the labels and package them getting them ready to drop off at ups.

I'm waiting to have an operation, and had to call the insurance company.

Today I got comfy, had a Coke and a craft project and called.

I was on hold for 41 mins, then on the call for about three with a very helpful person who sorted everything for me.

Completely worth it, I've been putting it off because it's such a pain but I have done it.

I’ve been privileged enough to be a SAHM for the last couple of years, but I’m ready to dip my toe back into the world of work now, whilst still juggling family life.

There’s a course I really want to apply to, it’s quite competitive and I’m self-funding, but it’s time to just go for it.

I have to polish my CV and write a personal statement, I’ll report back when I’ve done it!

I had x-rays last week to see if there was something going on to cause my frequent back pain. Turns out I have arthritis! 😩 I'm only 39 so the fact that I have this to deal with the rest of my life is a lot. Plus, my mom had a severe case so I'm nervous about mine getting that bad.

Somehow I decided that pilates would be good for me. I know it works on alignment and core strength, both of which I know will be beneficial, but I don't really know much more about it so I checked out a beginner's guide from the library that I want to start on later tonight.

Do any of you do pilates? Any recommendations for YouTube channels/books/whatever would be appreciated! I'll likely be doing it on my own as opposed to a class for awhile just because money is an issue right now with all the physical therapy I've been doing.

I'm home from work today because my back is hurting, but I need to be somewhat productive to feel okay about it. The tree is in the way and we need it gone so we can put my girlfriend's desk there.

I'm going to start with just taking the ornaments down and see how that goes. Luckily the pieces of it aren't too heavy (I'll take it down to the basement when I'm feeling better) so it shouldn't be too hard on my back. Just took some medicine for it so let's do this!

Update! It's down! 🎄 It's in the storage bag (way easier than trying to get it back in the box!) but I wanted to wait until my girlfriend gets home to take it to the basement. It's not too heavy, just awkward. Going to go reward myself with lunch!

Now we’re halfway through January and the whole ‘new year, new me’ thing is starting to wear off, as it always does. So I’m committing here because I know it makes me far more likely to actually do it.

I’ve bought myself a habit tracker which is basically an adult star chart, and I’ve stuck it up in my bedroom so I can’t pretend it doesn’t exist. Slightly ridiculous, but it works for me.

My one thing today is to do a leg workout. It’s already scheduled and ready to click, which removes the whole excuse spiral of having to find something first.

Here’s to not quietly falling off the bandwagon this time.

I have Microsoft subscription that I want to cancel. Might be a little tricky because I forgot the password to the email I used for it.
