I am reading -- devouring? -- this book that directs you to brag about yourself once a day. so I thought I'd make it communal...
ps not necessary to brag re: clutter, cleaning, blahblah.
can be anything in the universe.
Please? I await.

I guess my brag for today would be I didn't let depression get to me today. I fought it and won. After the day I've had I normally would have crawled into bed and been there for days.
Today I was in control of it as opposed to it controlling me for the 1st time in a long time.
Thank you for starting this post hope
Hugs

I felt some energy to paint my paintbrushes (sounds weird, but it makes them look a lot more appealing to paint with for this budding artist). They are so beautiful and whimsical and dare I say MAGICAL now! It sure felt better to do this than to feel sorry for myself, cry, overanalyze myself, or pretend that I was lonely with nothing to do today! YOU GO GIRL!

Yesterday I was feeling very depressed, so I read a book by the funniest author I know, Janet Evanovich.

I was thinking about this thread today while I was aquajoging - so here's my brag: I went aquajogging today (and did my whole routine plus 4 lengths swiming) for the first time in a month.
I feel good about that!

Most animals, especially dogs, seem to take an instant liking to me.  |

Like SZ, I am a natural with animals. I am particularly good with horses, dogs, and cats....and I have a knack for being able to get very close to wildlife without disturbing them.
I am a fairly good artist (fine art was one of my majors); but, I haven't created anything in decades.

gee, polar bear, I haven't been seeing myself in a particularly brag-worthy light lately. light in the darkness, all that -- I guess it's the ideal time to start bragging. well, most of what I know I didn't learn through formal, traditional channels. once in a while, i do things with a light touch, just the right touch -- do them right. (as in the refund the other day.) I know this is sort of lame. maybe I'll wait for more oomph and redo it. |

There you are, hopehope!
I think you did a great job bragging about yourself. No change needed, in my opinion.
But if you do think you need something different, you can brag that you've inspired several people to brag about themselves over the last few days!
