New Look, New Outlook

I am the type of fool that takes the opportunity of a new year to set goals and and offer redos. This year is no different. I wanted to get this post done before midnight.

2024 has had all sorts of feels. At the end of March I had one of my bothersome fibroids removed. In one breath the OBGYN was just looking around, and then suddenly there was a scalpel involved, and I was presented with a muscley fibrous tumour. Within a month my iron levels had returned to almost normal. I couldn't believe that my entire miserable existence was being caused by a clump of muscle fibres. I still have half a few lemons hanging out inside but my life has been reoriented. Like I had been turtling and someone kindly picked me up and put me back on my feet. I started wanting to walk Sprout. I wasn't tired ALL OF THE TIME. I don't even want to think about how miserable I felt. The strength of my stiff upper lip had been fading fast. But now, it's all just a new day.

Sprout has been the most amazing addition to my life. He's my little dude. And seeing him improve and grow has been my pleasure (as an old client once said in a fit of phone madness, "You're....my pleasure")

Things I want for 2025.

• Read more
• More guitar (more.....MORE)
• Finish knitting projects that I start
• Fully declutter the house
• Sell sell sell, everything I don't want or need
  
• Start and complete some small housing repairs/improvements
• Take up rollerskating again
• Work out again, regularly
• Push myself to be better in small but meaningful ways
• Should I even bullet that I want to blog again? Yes, I'll put it down and see what happens.

2024 was mediocre. Looking for a fantastic 2025.
