"my younger son did a practice walk for DofE today. He did about 19K, with a huge backpack in this heat."
That just brought back huge nostalgia! I loved doing DofE back in highschool. Good luck to him! |

Mine was north Essex. It rained about 90% of the time and we got lost in a lot of fields/woods, so it felt more like the Swamp of Ridoh in Elden Ring!

Yes Nanuq. I practice pranayama. Its basically breath control. I try to do it most days as its so powerful. For me personally it transforns me totally.
I learned it on a yoga teacher training course in 2019 and fell in love with it. Its not just deep breathing its breath control so you really have to focus 100 per cent and when you do your mind cant think of anything else!! |

Re: What I did today - for small achievements and cheers
Just completed a 1 day a week for 10 weeks online zoom training course with a bunch of strangers. Well minus the assignment I've yet to do.
That in itself is a miracle but I was particularly dreading today - where I knew we had to do a big role play excercise in break out rooms - essentially role playing being either a peer support worker or being the person supported, with the third person being the observer. I was hoping to be the observer, or at worst the supprted person, I however in true style got the peer support worker role Wasn't perfect but I'm quite pleased that a) I turned up today - I was toying with pulling a sickie! and b) pushing myself through the excercise. It felt good to complete the full 10 weeks. |

Re: What I did today - for small achievements and cheers
Without going into detail (could write a few thousand words about it)...we have been stuck in a "nightmare neighbour next door" situation for 17 years.
A fairly recent issue is that one neighbour has an Alsatian dog that has gone for us several times, that he lets out loose on shared land that we have to walk across to access the house. We had to have people come from the council today to discuss the dog and they said to try and get evidence of the neighbour's behaviour. So my achievement today was to hold up a phone and quietly film the neighbour being aggressive and threatening and then just walking away. For someone who can't cope with conflict at all, who gets very shaky and tearful, I think I was very calm and level headed and am quite proud of myself for managing that. |

Thanks Percy, I've got no intention of doing it again! We're going to buy a cctv camera tomorrow.
I'm sorry if it's something you have had to do, bad neighbours can make other people's lives a misery. |

Re: What I did today - for small achievements and cheers
So I did that thing I've been building up to. It was fairly terrifying in the moment but I eventually relaxed into it (sort of). There were only about 10 people in the audience but I'm pretty sure that made it worse - I could see them all way too clearly. Here's the bit that probably went the best (although the closing line needs work):
I was genuinely surprised how I sounded when I first listened back to it all. You can't really hear the huge 'oooh shit' I was feeling. I think because of that I feel like I could do it again without half the amount of worry, so I guess that's something. I ya mush, SA. |
