New year, new me! Resolutions for 2025

It’s a new day!

I’ve hit the ground running and am leaning hard into the new year!

That’s why I’m particularly excited to participate in this month’s Where Bloggers Live topic: “My New Year’s Resolutions.”

This year I intend to knock it out of the park: ambitious goals, completed projects, prompt blog posts detailing and updating everyone on my progress…concisely, with lots of humor and photos. No more long-winded, multi-post adventures for me!

Among those adventures will be a finished kitchen, new guestrooms with empty closets, a functional sewing/craft room…

Why, LOOK!! There’s a guest room in progress!!!

and CLEAN BATHROOMS.

In addition, I’ll vacuum more regularly, stay on top of the laundry, and might even need to change the name of this blog due to the lack of dust and dog hair in the house.

Mr will come home to the meals he deserves after slaying dragons each day. Jack’s coat will be tangle free.

I will water and fertilize all the flowers I plant. I won’t forget to take out the garbage or leave the clothes out for the cleaners.

As a special focus, I will slow down and not accidentally dictate and/or text full conversations to unsuspecting recipients who have no interest in whatever I’m complaining about on a given day. Further, I will also remember to lock my phone so as not to continuously butt dial the veterinarian.

Additionally, at bedtime I will not keep my phone under my pillow and accidentally dial (at two in the morning) the grammar school basketball coach of one of my adult children.

The improvements don’t stop there! I’m also going to focus on eating healthier…no more cheesecake and/or cookie dough for breakfast.

Maybe I will discover wheat germ…

I will endeavor to exceed my daily step goal by 2500 steps, try a yoga class, paint my nails regularly, wear more dresses.

In all, I’m super excited about my new year…and the new me. And I have three months to go before I can come back and say…

“April Fools!”

fingers crossed, tell a fib

(In case I need to clarify….new year, same old me. But good luck with YOUR goals!)
