Ya know how most of us tend to dwell on the negativity of our day? Well, here is perhaps a thread that will give some positive energy to the dreary grind. Lets see if we can do this.
I've asked the question..."What did you accomplish today?"
Now lets here some answers.

I will check this in a few days.
Starting with me.

I FINALLY went to the local college and picked up, Financial Aid form, Admissions Form, and a book that has the course listings, etc. I am going back to college, and if it takes me until I'm 35 to finish, then so be it!

I feel wonderful that I even had the drive to go there and get the necessary papers today to start thinking about the Spring Semester.

I also managed to NOT fight with my husband today while out running errands with him.

I also managed to feel good about compliments on weight loss and my new haircut instead of feeling like someone was just sugarcoating things.

Hows that? Anyone else? I'll be interested to look at this again.

My name isn't Baby, and I don't want to cyber.

I wrote a paper for my English class, actually a rough draft of a paper that I will go through with a few others tomorrow.

I went out to dinner with my family.

I got my psych paper back and found out I had scored nine points out of ten.

Cool topic! I'm going to check back on this one too.

What did I accomplish today??

Well lets see, I couldnt wear my contacts today due to an eye problem, so I wore my glasses. I guess I accomplished that with or without glasses I am beautiful no matter what anyone says. I also received compliments on how good I looked in them which made me feel alot better about wearing them.

Lets see. Hmm what else did I accomplish. Well that I have friends that might not invite me everywhere with them but they are still my friends. And I finally got to hang out with my near distant best friend after not really talking for awhile.

And I know of one more. That even though my boyfriend is thousands of miles away from me, he will be there for me in any way he could. (Right now I am keeping a journal on my feelings with him being gone. And letting out some things in it is really helping me. As if he is right there listening to what I have to say.)

This was a really good topic to bring up. And I didnt even think of anything that I accomplished today. If you consider what I said an accomplishment.

Well, after about 40 man-hours of input and analysis, my assistants and I finally finished a 10 page spreadsheet with the most complicated mineral owner splits I've ever seen, and got the whole thing to balance! We were shouting and running around the office like kids at Christmas! We're going to frame this one, literally!!!

I finished my newsletter assignment! (a tad late, but it is done - until the editor rips into it that is...)

I woke up alive this morning... great accomplishment and a good start to the day! I hate it when I wake up dead... really sucks.

Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn.
