Hey friends. It's been a while since I've had the spoons to do one of these. But does anybody have something that they need celebrated. Yesterday, I relaxed and started a jigsaw puzzle. It doesn't sound like much, but I've been struggling to let go of stress and anxiety, so this was a win.
Surviving another year, it’s my bday on wed 🥳
Oh, yayy. How are you planning on celebrating?
Taking the day off, having brunch with a couple of friends, having a chill day 😊
That sounds like an amazing plan. I hope you have a wonderful day. I'll ask Milo to give you extra smooches on the day.
Thank you! 🥰
That’s awesome. I’ve been thinking of getting a puzzle, I used to love doing them. My ex and I accepted an offer on the house, and it was more than we’d expected, which means we can both have some financial independence. Definitely worth celebrating
That is really exciting news for you both.
Wooooo!
I completed a beginner soldering project and when I plugged it in the little lights came on just like it was supposed to, yeah me!
Ohh, that is very cool. Was it a kit you bought or a project in a book. What is the next step in your soldering journey?
it was a kit I'm nowhere near putting something together out of a book. I just figured out what the little colored lines on the resistors mean. It's like a secret language.
Do you have a photo of the little light?
it never occurred to me to take its picture
That is a win! Hopefully it relaxed you! I started to get back into walking and work this past week after a rough August of recovery.
I hope you're taking it easy. It's not just the surgery to recover from, but the initial illness as well. I'm glad you're getting back into your usual activities, though. How do you motivate yourself to walk? A dog, a friend, amazing willpower and dedication? I need external motivation.
I guess I made it a habit to do something ~30 minutes a day. It’s how I I try to start my day.
I know @zenhussy.bsky.social cleaned out their fridge. That feels like something that needs extra celebration because it is such a big effort.
😭💖 thank you bee. it's amazing being able to see things and not have a mystery science project in the veg drawers.
It is my goal for the day to empty the two containers with last week's leftovers.
that's a good goal. we believe in you bee 🫶🏻
Wife and I just assembled ikea furniture and we're still married!
That is a double celebration. Congratulations on assembling the furniture and congratulations coming out the other side with your relationship intact? Do you have specific roles? As in one reads the instructions and the other does all the Allen key stuff?
