In your own space, create your own challenge. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Okay, my challenge is, if you've been putting something off go do it. A fic that's in your head, write those first words. Something you want to create, do the first stitch, cut the first bit of material, whatever that may be, record the first word. Tidy that area you've been meaning to for ages, write that email, make that phone call. Take that walk. Watch that TV show you've always wanted to but keep putting off because other things get in the way. Take that long bath and totally relax. Be it practical or totally indulgent, just do it.

You don't have to finish, the challenge is to just make those first steps but hopefully, you will end up with a fic or a piece of art or a tidy area. Though, if your just do it self challenge is a bath you should probably finish, I'd hate to be responsible for excessive prunage.

I see MCR's announcement was a North America tour, which is great. I hope some of my friends can go and tell all the details. I love the video that led to the announcement, so many nods to the past, and I suspect the more I watch the more I'll catch. Also, it made me want more Mikey/Pete in the 16 Candles verse, I'm just saying.

Today our walk was at the wetlands again. I can't remember if I've said but in one of the areas are two ducks that are being socialised. There's a sign up saying not to feed them by hand as they're a bit bitey and have feisty personalities but aren't actually mean. I remain dubious of that claim as every time we go near them they hiss and jump up snapping their beaks. And today one of them bit James' finger, which served him right to be honest.

Today we also posted something we sold on schpock and took clothes and some shoes to the charity place, so that's more stuff out of the house. Plus, started to arrange the joint birthday meal for me and Corey. Where his girlfriend will be getting introduced to the family, I mean, they've been dating three years so it's probably time.

We're at a funeral tomorrow. It's a relative on James' side, an aunt of his mam and not someone I knew well. But when I met her at extended family gatherings she was always lovely, so we're going to pay our respects. She's getting buried but I've never actually been to a burial before, and to be honest, I'm glad we'll be missing that part tomorrow and going from the church to the wake. Which is being held where we had our wedding reception, so it'll be nice to see it again. Just a shame it's in those circumstances.
