I got a positive response on doing a low key January challenge! My intention is to post weekly on Wednesdays, which will cause there to be five weekly challenges.

For the first week, we are looking at making day time resting spots more restful. What this might look like:

• Favourite Chair* has Stuff! on it --> Stuff! is moved somewhere else.
• Floor on the way to Favourite Chair has tripping hazards --> clear a path.
• Line of sight from Favourite Chair to window has something that irritates you --> Resolve at least one thing.
• December related detritus in your relaxation space --> pack it up.
• Cushions are leaking --> repair, replace, put a cover on, put it somewhere else....
• There is a task that you notice Every! Single! Time! you stop for a rest --> move it, progress it, hide it ...

* for a value of chair that is where you rest when you aren't resting in bed. If you don't have one of these, then the challenge is to make one. Can you clear a space near a window so you can look outside? Standing and watching the traffic/clouds/birds/local wildlife counts as resting!

On easy mode, Stuff! gets added to a pile on the floor / chucked in a cupboard or box / made a problem for Future You. For each bit of extra energy you have, work through the list of: Rubbish in the bin. Put things that have homes away. Identify things that need returning or rehoming and put them in the 'return' and 'rehome' piles respectively. Find homes for things that don't have them.

Whether you do one thing once, or aim to do a little bit everyday, is entirely dependent on what you have time, energy, motivation and cope for. Reporting in can be done whenever you want, or on the (semi-)regular checkin, or the challenge checkin. If you have a thought about what you want to aim for, tell us in the comments!
