Give yourself credit for anything you've done right!

Finding a new batch of courage to live on. 

Don't know if I should give myself credit for bringing a runaway dog back to her house. Heard later that her house is not the best place for her. They don't even actively search for her, when missing, nor crave her back even if she has gone missing for almost a week. Had not seen her before, but, she seems to be a notorious run away doggy.  When I found out where she belonged, I was not happy right away, because I have noticed how the kids are being treated there.
Don't know what I will do next time, when she spends the night in my front garden.

Was walking off the train when I noticed a guy two or three people ahead of me drop his Centrelink card and not be aware of it. I picked it up and ran to catch up and hand it to him. Losing a Centrelink card would be a real hassle.

Called my phone company because when I opened a new account they forgot to add in the long distance plan so I was charged for all of my long distance calls which I make a lot of. Convinced them to add the plan and give me a credit for this months calls.

 I just got rid of 7 bags of trash, a bag full of recyclable paper and cardboard, and
 two bins of recyclable plastic stuff, and the apartment looks so much bigger!

^I am starting to wonder what your place looks like with so much paper and recyclables. I am a minimalist and so either like to file paperwork that I may need later away or throw it out. My mum went on at me for throwing paperwork out without shredding it first though because of identity theft.

 Fear of identity theft is what compelled me to keep so much paperwork for so many years.
 All three of my closets have been packed with plastic bags stuffed with paper clutter!
 Now that I have THE SHREDDER, and have become ruthless about discarding stuff, I'm
 seeing empty space for a change!  But I am dealing with 24 years' worth of accumulation,
 so it's going to take awhile longer.  I plan to hire my friend's son and the crew from his
 furniture store to haul away all my unwanted furniture and appliances when I'm through
 sorting; that will free up a lot more space!  My voice will echo in the empty rooms!

 It looks as if a slob lives in it.  But it's getting better.  Unlike many of my fellow hoarders,
 I am neither a shopper nor a decorator, and I don't willingly collect anything.

When I lived alone I used to tear my paperwork up as I didn't have a shredder but shredders are definitely more effective. Will you buy replacement furniture?

 Probably not.  I think I'm preparing myself to move one day into an even
 smaller place!  I am a studio-apartment girl at heart.

I told the PR, "No, you can't have any more money."  She has $5 to spend at the bowling alley for food.  However, she spent it all in the iron claw machine trying to win a bear. 

[Callaway]

Good for you.  I hate those machines.

Did some writing.  Today AND yesterday!  And it wasn't the mental version of shitting bricks, either, which was really nice.
