thought I would try starting a thread for this! basically, what’s something recent (or recent-ish) that you experienced that you consider a “win”? could be something big, or something small! we’ll take all the wins we can get, here.
for me, the primary ones that are localized to my life would be that my dog made it through surgery okay last month and that I am trying to learn linux server stuff again and actually feel like I’m getting it a bit more. I love learning things, but I honestly feel like I’m terrible at this skill set in particular.
also, making this post! I have been around before but I’m relatively skittish in social spaces just because of previous experiences. haven’t had any bad ones here, just memories making it hard to shake and actually participate.


So, the apartment I live in has a small kitchen. Don’t do dishes for a few days and suddenly the sink is full and counters and stove kinda get filled up as well. I should be better a out doing them more often, but I don’t, so I had a full sink, counter, and stove of them yesterday. I often don’t like doing them when things get that full because it feels more overwhelming than it actually is.
I managed to get through loading the dishwasher with as much as I could and then managed to get more done by hand and drying on a towel on the counter. I managed to not get all, but a vast majority of them cleaned. Made things feel so much less overwhelming.
