What's your little victory for the day?

Mine is eating a bowl of tomato soup for dinner without spilling on my white top!

smiley - applause Get on!

In spite of my vertigo I managed to get a big, fat, old school pc monitor up a ladder and into a converted attic without killing myself or anyone else. smiley - puff Also, I finally bit the bullet and took three bags of old clothes to the charity shop.

Is this only about spilling things on your shirt? Because I can't see the link and I got tooth paste on myself today twice.

I can't see the link, either. But I'll try again from home later. I got enough of a peek to get the gist. smiley - smiley

Hmmm, if it shows you an ad, you just have to wait a bit and it'll let you skip it...

I think it's just that it won't load on my work computer. My machine at home is a lot faster, and uses a different browser. Something to look forward to doing while my dinner is cooking.

Fantastic idea for a thread!

I have a little list of things to do in and around my uni town before I graduate in three weeks. Today I crossed another one off, and have written my entry about it already.

That reminds me - I went to the library for a book I desperately need for my paper that's due next week. Someone else had it and it's not due back till the end of the month...

And then my boss had a copy in his bookshelf, signed by the author and with useful notes written on post-its throughout!

Managed to finish Photoshoping the shops of Harrow smiley - magic

A slightly hollow victory since i now have to Photoshop most of the shops of the WC2 postcode of London, which seems to be the area around Covent Garden and Leicester Square, well at least its more interesting than Harrow.

Reached Monday evening without putting any heads through windows - that's always a major achievement. smiley - winkeye

Didn't spill anything on myself (has to be said, dunnit?)

And the stuff I ordered was delivered - not something I hadn't ordered, which is often the case. Not bad.
