2025 Week #25 Weekly Goal Sharing! (Monday 06/16/25 - Sunday 06/22/25)
I welcome anyone to commit to a goal here today.
But importantly, talk about getting it done..... or why it didn't happen yet.
To praise each other for our efforts and wins.
While supporting each other through trials and setbacks.
And to continue trying and not give up.
Remember:
Every Goal should be considered "Worthy".
Never belittle your achievements and be proud of yourself for your daily accomplishments!
Whether they be Complex or Simple.
Getting out of bed is a good day..... Good job I say!
Share your goals today, for support and encouragement.

BUT WHEN YOU CAN... DO IT. WHEW, RELIEF.... IT WORKS 🤗
(And this helps us focus on goals and other positive things)
POSITIVE VIBES AND ENERGY BEING SENT YOUR WAY THIS WEEK.
HAPPY MONDAY MORNING EVERYONE!
Today, I'm going to try to Mustard up enough discipline, to Ketchup on my house chores, early this morning.
Last week was a hard week of work. My house and personal disciplines turned into a mess. I have a lot of work stuff to do today but not obligated to anyone.
I've been working on the House for the past two days and I just have a little bit more to do.
With the exception of my receipts and paperwork, I should be able to finish my housework up in about an hour and a half. It's 4:30 AM now. The good news is, my mind is eager to meet this challenge. That's kind of a big deal. 😁
Ok, by 6am may have been a little ambitious!
By 7am is my adjusted challenge! 😁
7AM has come and gone.
It is 7:15 and I lacked discipline. I got distracted by cooking and eating. That's something that could have waited until I was done with my chores but I just lack the discipline.
8:00AM is now my new target..... feels dicouraging but making progress!
8AM Done! And now, what's next? 🤔
You did it .. yay! I need to do housework too! Now you have a nice place to enjoy for the day. How will you make it a great day?
Thanks. A great day will be finishing ALL my paperwork PLUS getting a good start on a vehicle repair.
But i'll keep my expectations to a good day..... all my paperwork. 😁.
@IsayUncle
I think I meant to say you may as well rest. You worked all morning. But getting your paperwork done will feel very good I'm sure.
I also succeeded at cleaning my house today. I did a quick clean anyways, your reminder helped... Thank you 🤗 I wasn't able to focus much at work. Last week I took 7cups off of my phone so i could work, but I found it again... lol. It is so nice to have a place to be able to express myself.
@reservedOwl321
Yea, i agree. it is nice to have a place, to hold someones hand .... or go ballistic, sometimes.... and knowing it's OK with some of our friends here on 7 cups. 🤗
I'm glad you got some of your housework done. That's always a good feeling. I know! LOL.
I never had seven cups on my phone because I don't do anything like that on my phone. But i can see where that would be nice sometimes. I don't even get emails on my phone. I have to have a desktop to function with a computer. I do, do music and audiobooks though. (I don't "do do" on music LOL 🤣😁)
@IsayUncle
That is interesting that you use a desktop. Why do you prefer it? It has been a long time since I have had one of those, but my work laptop is connected to a monitor and pretty much functions as a desktop. My daughter wants a desktop for gaming right now. I guess it is more powerful for a lower cost for her. Her and technology is a constant battle!
I have a bike desk, and I love the versatility to do meetings or webinars while biking. I didn't have a personal computer for a while because they like to poop out on me sometimes, and I borrowed from my daughter. I am so glad to have one now and I switch between that and the phone. The 7cups app is good, but there is a lot more functionality I am finding when you use a computer. I couldn't figure out GIFS on the phone, but it was easy on the computer for example. Go me!
I hope you enjoy your day. Were you able to get your paperwork knocked out yesterday?
I said it on the other thread but I need to fix the second and fourth assignment, write the fifth and do the labs for the sixth. Right now I have to put balls back in the pit for like the sixth time she puts her treats and bones in it then turns the pit over so she can get her things out.
@Enthenia
She's a smart one! 🤣😁🤣.
I just trained 6 dogs "not" to eat a kitten. LOL..... I had a stray kitten show up on the property and my dogs never associated with a cat or a kitten. They were overly curious to say the least.
I did a pretty good job introducing them a little bit at the time, to each other, for the past two weeks. Now they all, either, tolerate her, or play with her. I named her Tolly, (Short for tolerance).
It sounds like you got a good plan going for your classwork. How many assignments needed before passing this class? What is this class focusing on?
Have a great day today. It's really a blessing you can do school work, at work. AND it's very admirable that you put in all that extraaaa effort to keep both, up to par! GOOD JOB!
@IsayUncle I do the school work because I really can't stay with the job long-term. Too many contradictions yet we have to be consistent. I have no idea what burnout really feels like but I'm certain that my job could be considered a contributor. And if there were clear, consistent procedures then much of the stress and tension would be alleviated.
Yesterday morning, my dog scared a couple of cats. She wanted to play with them. I explained to the guy that was trying to catch them (not sure why he let them out) that since the dog grew up around my cat, she thinks all cats will play with her. Unfortunately most run away. I will definitely need to get another cat when the time comes.
I had something else I was going to address but I've forgotten it. Working on the work task to get it the way they want although I am sure they will find something else to complain about...
Resubmitted the second assignment. Had to nearly do a full rewrite. Started the paper for the 5th assignment but I need to see if I had the labs completed. The screenshots I saved don't match the instructions. Still have three monthly tasks to do and my next review isn't due until July. Can probably do it on the 4th.
Working on getting the tasks done on the gaming apps. The legitimate ones. The one that looked good, I don't think is. I found an obscure review after doing some searching that wasn't good. I'll give it another day and then delete the game. Would have helped me if it was actually genuine but I'll just have to double down on the other rewards accounts that I have.
Got the work stuff done. Only have the one report to do but that's not due until July
Only four stages away from the $200 on one of the games and fifty-four away from an extra $60. Cleared another stage in a different vone for an additional $10 and trying to level up on the others. Downloaded a few extra titles because one application has a $1k (or maybe $10k, the numbers are small) contest going on for three days. Would be a relief if I got part of that but it's hard completing the tasks
Considering the options of doing a hardship withdrawal on my retirement. Not sure if an eviction notice counts. Also sold some partial stocks. I have to pay what I owe on rent. I can't afford to live anywhere else and my location is close to work. It's no big deal if one bus doesn't show up (like this morning) because I can still get to work early. It would be harder if I lived across town. And there's the fact that I don't sleep enough as it is
Going to work on my assignment after lunch. Need to double-check the labs. Thought I had completed them.
@Enthenia
Oh No - Oh No - Oh No...... I am terribly sad to hear about your financial hardships. I knew you were struggling but I didn't think it was affecting your rent so badly.
I am really really sorry to hear that. Did you actually get an eviction notice are you afraid that you're gonna get one.
Oh Enthenia, I hope you can get the money for your rent somehow.
@IsayUncle I got the thirty day notice after the whole thing happened with the bank. I've been trying to collect the money and I've got to keep in mind that July is coming up. I don't want my retirement account to take a hit but it was the parent company that screwed everything up.
If I do the withdrawal request and it's approved, I'd be eligible for $4k which is more than what I need but it would help secure next month as well.
@Enthenia
Industrial Tatics with no room for leniency with special circumstanses is a harsh, unfair reality! I hate it!
Your place sounds perfect so I hope you can keep it and have no situations like this in the future.
At least with the extra money (if you get it) you'll have some relief for a little bit.
I hope you have a nice day today.
@IsayUncle waiting on the extra $200 from the game to process. Transferred the $200 from my investment account already. I can probably start the withdrawal process even though they're probably closed. Right now I have to play with someone. It's been a while.
Just getting overwhelmed with it all and I really have no one else to rely on.
@Enthenia
Yea, that sounds like a good idea.... (playing with u-know-who) 😁.
It's easy to get stressed and overwhelmed juggling financial insecurity all the time, and especially on your own too.
But it sounds like you put out another fire for now. Hang in there.
@IsayUncle I'm getting tired of fires and the fact that the measures I take for stability always end up falling apart. I'm trying to meet the goals on the other one because they had a 2x bonus that lasted for a day but meeting the goals is hard especially with animals wanting attention and my bouts of tiredness or thirst/hunger and then taking steps to feel better only to feel worse an hour or so later.
And I do need to clean plus a host of other things.
Like I said, each time I try to make things better, I always end up making things worse. Sometimes it seems like I'm some sort of cosmic joke.
@Enthenia
Awww, you can't think like that. Or at least try not to. 😢.
You think you are alwyas failing, but that is not 100% true. It's natures way to continue the obstacles. It is not your fault AND.... The failures you percieve always seem to be forward failures..... Meaning you continue to move forward.
I am so sorry it is so very frustrating.... and I totally understand, because I feel that way too. But I know, i've taken care of myself and my pets for 24 weeks of this year and that is something to be proud of.
You also have persevered. Believe in yourself. And it's OK to get so very frustrated but try not to negative talk yourself. You Are Amazing....
Cosmic set-backs are not your fault, which you usually punch in the nose anyway!
Try to have a good day tomorrow and go easy on yourself, even if problems arise. (hopefully not)🤗
@IsayUncle uploaded the paperwork. Could have done that last night but I don't remember what happened. Submitted the 5th assignment. Have to start the labs for the 6th and look at the 7th. Still no deposits showing. Maybe tomorrow. Hoping the withdrawal request will get processed fast. Had to pay the taxes on it but it should be fine. With that and with the deposits, I'm waiting on, I'll have enough to pay what I owe and a little extra to maybe pay on other bills.
I also have to get the dog her calming treats because Independance Day is coming up...
@Enthenia
Oh, i hope those other deposits come soon.
Poor dog, those loud noises can be very scary.
@IsayUncle they did but the charge that screwed me up to begin with happened again. I'm tempted to close my account but a quick glance tells me it may be more trouble than it's worth.
I went to see if I could change my withdrawal amount but it's been processed. I still should be able to make the rent payment. I just won't be able to pay down other things like I had wanted to. This means that July will be tight too. I was able to order the things for the animals though.
So this morning I discover that the deposit has posted but it's less than expected. I can get $200 on one of my games but I have to reach 50M experience points in ten days and I'm only at 35K.
Tried doing more last night but I fell asleep. I have to stop doing that.
I abhor my life. Nothing I do is ever correct or enough...
20 MINUTE STARTER JAUNTS!
I have several puzzle pieces to fit my day together, into a productive ending. I'm kinda scatterbrained about approaching everything, so I decided to be flexible and hit different parts of it as the day goes on.
If I stay at it, I should have a lot a tasks completed. Hopefully, chopping them up, helps to keep me pushing through a lot of small steps of accomplishment.
1st 20 minute Jaunt - General housework - Next Jaunt will be a vehicle repair.
@IsayUncle
@BlueDarkAurora
Thanks! 😀😄😃😁
