New Year Goals

Keeping it simple this year after a couple of unsavory years in a row – we’ve decided in 2022 to slow down and be grateful for the minor things as much as possible.

My first goal of the new year was to give myself January to sleep more, blog less, stay home more, and have less social media in my personal life daily- less phone time in general, so sorry if I missed calls or messages or was not prompt to respond but that was me succeeding at a goal lol! Allowing myself more self-care time and saying no to people is tough… but it’s essential, and I can’t keep going at a pace for everyone else.

Another goal I set was to have at least one beach day a month. Mark and I are coming up on seven years since moving to Florida. A huge part of moving here was to utilize the weather and our location, and in the beginning, we did! We’re lucky to make it to the beach several times a year… SAD! The beginning of the month was ideal beach weather, but we missed out due to other plans. The weather here has been unusually cold, cloudy, and rainy, but I refused to fail one of my goals in the very first month… so last Friday, Mark and I dressed in layers and made a quick trip for a cold and dreary but still beautiful visit to our favorite beach. It can only get more beautiful from here! Goal two was accomplished at the last of the month… procrastinating at its best.

That said, January was still full of blog-worthy content I’ll be excited to write about and share in the coming weeks/months/year. We started our year blowing things up with our friends- literally, lol – having a Mini birthday party with our girl Misha- Mark ran and ultimately crushed his first Marathon. We had an incredible time celebrating him at the happiest place on earth. Colonel Mustard, a stray cat needing help, wandered into our lives and consumed us completely. We’re in love, and I’ll share that full story as it unfolds.

We also plan to make some big plans and book a trip later this year, which is two years in the making. There are so many exciting things coming down the line. Enjoy a few random photos from January. So cheers and happy February!
