I hope everyone’s new year is off to a great start! The girls just went back to school yesterday after a nice long winter break and I’m excited to catch up on things here. It’s always nice to let go of our day-to-day schedule and start fresh for a new year.
At the end of every year, I like to reflect on favorite moments from the year, what I’ve learned, and what I want to change or keep doing for the next year. This helps me refocus, prioritize and plan things. For 2023, this includes focusing on my family, health + spending time doing more of the things I love.
I also set a goal to try something new each month. This month was signing up for Pickleball lessons at our local park district. I’ve only had my first lesson but really enjoyed it! I think it’ll be a fun hobby to keep up with. I have a few ideas for the next couple of months (some are definitely out of my comfort zone!) and will plan to share recaps too.
Looking back at 2022, I realized I hadn’t blogged as much here as I thought! I have posted short stories twice a week via a campaign with Google. The list below is of favorite posts and will mostly be these short story posts. That campaign kept me quite busy in 2022! I loved creating the stories throughout the year but I am excited to start consistently blogging again here too! I will convert some of these stories to blog posts so consider this a peek at what is coming over the next few months ~
