I don’t really make New Year’s resolutions. In my experience they set me up for failure, so I just a avoid them. Most years I don’t really even have a vague plan. I usually write what each person is the family is up to and what they hope to accomplish during the year, then at the end of the year I write what actually happened. I also write out a month by month of main events and then jot in the surprises in life and cross out what we failed to do. It truly does make for interesting reading at the end of the year.
This year I did jot down what my current interests and hobbies at the beginning of my January planner section. I’ll be able to see the change of interests as the year goes along.
I am still very much into journaling. I also enjoy watching vlogs of cooking and cleaning on YouTube. They give me inspiration and motivate me. They also help me purge, which, once you reach a certain phase or age in life, is actually a lot more fun than acquiring things.
My blogging has been a source of enjoyment and I can see me continuing but who knows? Life is full of surprises so I may stop with this post. There is a saying – God laughs when we make plans.
Glam planning has been fun and I’ve added Sprocket photos to my calendar pages to make it a kind of scrapbook. It’s a bit messy. I’m not very artsy or crafty, but I’m having a lot of fun with it and am feeling confident I’ll improve with time.
I’m collecting a bit of Rae Dunn. Not sure how much I’ll collect, as I have a very small house and kitchen, but I am enjoying hunting for some holiday items. It’s the hunt that really appeals to me!
I’m focusing a bit more on what I’m eating. I have to have surgery in early February and would like to at least try to be a bit healthier between now and then and continue with good habits afterwards.
So no big resolutions for me. It may be New Year, Same Ol’ Me, but that’s ok. I kind of like who I am.
