Welcome to One Tiny Thing Thursday, where we choose to do one lil bit of a part of the scary, instead of trying to tackle the whole overwhelm all at once. Because, starting small is usually better than not starting at all. Join us? |
This is a back to basics week in self care. I need to reestablish most of my routines, my armature. While, long term, I need to find a way to transition back into my regular structure after traveling, right now, I need food.
I need to go to the grocery store. Today. I’ve needed groceries since Sunday, but for various reasonshaven’t made it out. So, that’s today’s tiny thing. My grocery list is in my phone and now I need to go to the grocery store. Because I *like* feeding myself nourishing meals. And I think it’s possible that I’m spending too much time at the sandwich place downstairs. I mean, I really shouldn’t know that the manager got married and the acting manager is working 17 hour shifts because of the honeymoon, should I? No, no I shouldn’t.
Update from last time: I found three Toastmasters groups to try. I put them on the schedule for this month, ahhahahahahah, and will be moving them to next month, once the day job holiday insanity has stopped. Because I am sane like that, when I catch myself, anyway.
If you want to play along, then just tell us in the comments what you’re One Tiny Thing is. And if you like, you can always come back and let us know how it went too.
Looking to stretch your comfort zone in tiny ways and pick up some resource recommendations? Sign up for Inching Along, and every other week I’ll send you one small (possibly even fun) challenge that you can easily accomplish plus other nuggets that I find.
You know, you can get updates by email or RSS. Yay, updates!

We’re being open here, sharing and saying things we don’t always say out loud. What helps: Sharing your stories and Ideas. Cheering and telling what works/worked for you. What hurts: shoulds, harshness, and such. (I used to teach first grade, I can’t help it.)
