The getting up off the floor without grabbing furniture thing snuck up on me too. Took me a while to notice I was doing it

My one is tying shoes without the awkward lean-back maneuver. Weird what ends up feeling like a win.
The top shelf thing got me. I caught myself stepping up onto the balls of my feet for something last week and barely had to reach.
The mall one got me. I realized last week i'd stopped scouting for the nearest bench on the subway platform without even noticing i'd quit doing it
Mine was getting out of my car in a normal parking spot without the door dinging the next car. Small thing but i noticed it right away
Mine was getting out of the car in the grocery store lot without that little scoot forward first. Weird one to notice but it stuck with me.
Getting off the floor after playing with my kid without needing to grab the couch first. That one snuck up on me.
Putting on socks standing up instead of sitting on the bed, that one snuck up on me. Tying shoes without holding my breath was a close second.
honestly getting off the floor without hauling myself up on furniture was mine too. Tried it on a whim one night and just stood up, then sat there kind of stunned.
The floor thing is real. I dropped something behind the couch last week and just got down there and back up without thinking about it, then realized halfway through that old me would have used the arm rest
idk, tying my shoes without holding my breath was mine. Took me a while to even notice I'd stopped grunting.
