Happy New Year! It’s really not a big deal anymore. It’s just another day, another year. The eve was fun back in the day when I was in my youth and would party and no responsibility. Even when my kids where younger, we had people over the house for a little festivities Now, I worked 12 1/2 hours and I’m aching and tired and the kids are older and either out doing their own thing or once the ball drops go play video games or on other devices. I was in bed at 12:40.π΄π
I vowed to stay in bed all day on New year’s day…mainly because my body just hurt from work and I mostly did….read alot, binge watched Sex and the City all day; only got out of bed to clean my room and make dinner, so maybe a total of 3 hours spent on my feet today. Am I lazy, yes! Do I feel guilty, NO! Should I? WhY?! Cuz it’s the first day of the new year and I am doing nothing. I have no resolutions. In fact, all those people who are, “oh I’m gonna eat healthier, I’m going to lose weight, I’m gonna do me, I’m going to be kinder, I’m going to get up earlier, I’m going to be grateful”…blah blah blah! I actually am pretty tired of FB and all those posts of positivity π and a better life π¬ Not that I am against good living and doing better but it’s so overly in my face and I don’t believe them…fake…i can spot fake…π
So it’s probably going to be a “Me show” year. Everyone finding themselves and getting rid of toxic people. Why didn’t you do it earlier; proclaiming changes for the new year…why not on December 16th or March 3 or any other random day?! So new year is the official day of proclamation I guess. And can’t you just proclaim quietly to yourself because it’s the same every year. So this year I will do my best to keep on doing what I’m doing. I will make improvements and changes as I go. Betterment is like Jell-O, there’s always room.
