As 2023 Ends

 Last year in December, I had an idea to pick up blogging again.  I had thought about using this space to help declutter my house.  There's a draft from December 2022 that is sitting empty in the files.   I think I want to try this again.  I have missed writing about the day-to-day life, thoughts, events over the past few years.  I can't believe this still is active and that I even remembered the password!!  

My idea was to review my goals and break them down each month.  I still have so much that needs to be decluttered, personal goals, family goals and even though I love doing this the last week of December, I feel like now is as good as any time to start.  

The first thing I want to do is to get all my lists, notes, goals together and put them in one journal.  I used to carry a small pocket spiral notebook that would hold everything.  Maybe if I can find one, I'll show it here.  It would get beat up from going everywhere with me.  Nowadays I see on YouTube that it would be called a commonplace notebook, but back when I carried them, it was just my lifeline!

I tend to jot things down on any paper, notebook, planner, etc. that I have handy and miss the days of just having that little notebook to keep track of everything.  I still had my planner as well for keeping track of events and would also have daily to do's.

Here's to moving towards the end of 2023 and revisiting this blog that I loved so much.  And here's to trying to keep myself accountable for the goals that I decide to tackle!!

Time goes by....

It's crazy how quickly time goes by.  Some days feel like they drag on forever and the work week will never end. But at the same time it seems like life goes by so fast and the years fly by. 

That's how I feel right now.  The days never end but yet years have slipped through my hands.This past year has been a whirlwind.  I found my biological father, my son turned 18 and my daughter turned 21, and just recently my mother in law passed away unexpectedly.

Lately I've been struggling to comprehend all that has happened this year.  All the joyous and sad events making up 2019. 

I miss writing on this blog.  It really helped me to get things out of my head and onto "paper."  I think about picking this back up, but then again I let life pull me along without any intention as I'm always thinking " I'll start tomorrow." 

Maybe this time I will stick with it!!

Is this still active??

I often think about resurrecting this little corner of the blogging world.  It really was a nice way to journal my life and a great timeline of facts.  I never inspired to be able to quit my job and sign a book deal, though quitting my job is an option regardless of any blogging success. Haha!

I love reading blogs. I love writing.  I just run out of time or forget or procrastinate.  This happens in all areas of my life.  So who know, maybe I will get back to this little corner of the internet.  We shall see!!
