Wednesday Wisdom: Midweek Momentum

There’s something quietly powerful about Wednesday. It’s not the fresh start of Monday or the celebratory sigh of Friday—it’s the hinge. The pivot point. The moment we decide whether the week drifts or drives.
Today, I’m leaning into momentum. Not the flashy kind, but the steady, deliberate progress that comes from fixing what’s broken, refining what’s working, and choosing clarity over chaos.
Whether it’s tightening a leaky valve, streamlining a cluttered SharePoint site, or simply rewriting a sentence until it feels right—Wednesday is for the methodical. For the ones who know that small wins stack up.
So here’s to the midweek makers. The quiet problem-solvers. The ones who don’t wait for inspiration—they build it.

Midweek is the perfect time to tackle the small fixes that quietly demand attention. Not the dramatic renovations—just the everyday wins that restore order and momentum.

Here are three DIY tips to keep your Wednesday productive and satisfying:

1. Silence the Hiss
If your toilet’s still whispering sweet nothings after a flush, check the fill valve. Mineral buildup can cause a slow hiss. A quick clean or replacement (no tools needed for most models) can restore peace.

2. Shut-Off Valve Check
Before any plumbing project, test your shut-off valves. If they’re stuck or leaking, replace them with quarter-turn ball valves. They’re more reliable and easier to operate—especially in a pinch.

3. SharePoint Sleuthing
Need to list accessible SharePoint sites without admin access? Try checking your Teams activity feed or OneDrive “Shared with me” section. It’s not perfect, but it’s a clever workaround when visibility is limited.

DIY isn’t just about fixing things—it’s about reclaiming control, one small solution at a time. So here’s to the midweek fixers who turn frustration into function.

Let’s keep moving. One step, one fix, one idea at a time.
