(All three of these just seemed to go together, so I posted them together!)
So I’m being honest, I TOTALLY failed today in an epic fashion. It was just one of those crappy days – I woke up sunburned, sore, and with absolutely no momentum so I blew off blogging and snapped at people all day. It wasn’t until I got on here just a minute ago (five minutes past midnight, I might add) that I realized what today’s task was and how badly I really had messed it up. So tomorrow I’m going to do all three – I’m going to make amends with people I haven’t been getting along with and I’m going to go out of my way to improve the days of the people I snapped at yesterday, as well as everyone else, as a way of making amends and (belatedly) completing the task.
I really need to remember how much better I feel about life & myself when I’m being nice to people.

August 19th – Go on an adventure! Call up some friends (or explore by yourself) and take off for a walking tour of a place that you’ve never been or haven’t really taken the time to notice before. There are really no limits on this one – the point is simply to have a good time & a good walk.I was at the beach so I bent the rules on this one and took a nice bike ride around town :) Pictures weren’t so much on my mind but I managed to snap one as evidence! It was nice to just take off for a bit and focus on the scenery around me, it really got me out of my own head for a bit, which is hard to do! (As an added bit of “challenge” I don’t like this picture of me much but I’m posting it anyway. At least it shows how much fun I was having!)
I’m still working on my nail-biting habit. I’ll admit I did a crappy job after making it my goal the other day – but for this one day I managed to hold off, which is a step!

This one is hard for me, since there isn’t much on that list. I’m leaving for a family vacation today (but bringing my laptop with me to keep up with the blog) so I’ll think about it in the car & get back to you :)
