![]() I'll keep this thread a-going. =^_^=
My sense of accomplishment is buying fruit this morning as a first step to making August healthier than those preceding it. ![]()

![]() Reaching the target for my savings I have set years ago.
I always wanted to have some decent savings and stop feeling like I had barely enough money to survive. 7-8 years ago I decided on an amount of money I'd have needed to save up in order to start any decent life project for the future. I'm still very unsatisfied and sad with many aspects of my life (Not to mention 11 years of no sexual gratification of any kind) but I managed to reach at least one of my goals.

![]() Here it is a month later; and I have to confess I started this thread partly to motivate me to finish my "things to do" list.
I cheated with laundry. Laundry is an every week thing. So is cutting the grass. These items are not on my "things to do" list. When I made the original post, my list was at 14. Some have been added; some have been completed. The current list is six. Some people interpret this as my "honey do" list. That's not it at all. I notice things and start projects she would never notice need to be done. I'm lucky; as long as I keep the grass cut, and help with the laundry, she's happy. But she would never notice rain drainage issues, shrubs that need to be trimmed, lighting that needs updating and a myriad of other items that make my list. It gets depressing sometimes that some items linger on the list. They grind on, and seem to take forever to finish. One item I completed today should have taken less than an hour. It took three. A bad design by the manufacturer* meant I had to take extra time to mount and stabilize a power hub. That was also complicated by the intense temperature in the garage where I was working. At least this hurricane will cool us down for a few days. *So that's how I got it so cheap! |

![]() This may be a bit tangential but I discovered I share an affliction with a friend - she and I are both inveterate compilers of to-do lists. We concluded this was a displacement activity because we didn't want to do any of the things we thought were so important. Writing them down was an approximation of accomplishment.
I can only admire those who set targets and get them done. (Took me ten goes to write this, scheesh!) |

![]() How are you doing on your list of things to do, Wallingford?
Forgiveness given in fact this thread isn't such a bad idea to keep each other motivated to accomplish something or work towards a goal. ![]() I've done very well this month with my goals to exercise more, eat healthier and consume less soda. I've even read a few books. The only goals I haven't been doing so well on are my gaming goals; I have an enormously long backlog and I tend to hop too frequently, if I had to choose one goal to not do too well on it would be that one. ![]()

![]() Yes! Another reason I started this thread was to motivate each other.
Between new items that have come up and several doctor and physical therapy appointments, my list is still currently at six. However, I've cleaned the nine sunroom windows (the outside, wife will clean inside, air conditioning, you know) and cut my lawn and the neighbor's lawn today. So I'll call it a wash. The items that are not completed are getting smaller, and some are partially completed. |

![]() ![]() ---------------- For me I'm a little bit proud of myself for actually saying please before I ripped someone a new a**hole because I had a package stuck in a warehouse in British Columbia for almost a week because of the wildfires and the roads were closed. They got the point and threw it on an airplane, I had it less than 12 hours later. |
