2024 Resolution Recap


I'm ending and starting 2025 with the flu. With all of my vaccines, how did I end up with the flu? A week later I'm not quite myself. The three lingering symptoms are a cough, a gunky nose, and a headache that takes a while for Tylenol to kick out.

Looking at last year's resolutions and vision board, I fell short in many ways. I see at the end, I didn't have a goal for professional growth, and nothing happened on that front.

1) Celebrate more: we did have a party for Don's birthday, and one for Ashley's graduation, but none for my 55th.

2) Dancing on roller skates: I'm still upright, but despite taking a beginner's class and getting out more often lately, my legs don't seem to want to do that.

3) Go out with other couples: I'd have to count, but I don't think I reached 12. We saw the Emilie and Paul; Dan and Heather; Scottie and Dave; Marlene and Jim; Jo and Andrew...anyone else? I'd love to try harder on this one in 2025.

4) Camera: I took a class and have made progress in using the settings. I signed up for an iPhone photo class in March.

5) No new to me countries. Nearly made it to Bali. *sigh*

6) Nope, no so trips.

7) A race over 5k. I did do the Spring Lake 5 miler, but walked most of it. Foot pain side lined me most of the year.

8) Writing a book. Still trying to figure out a topic.

9) Canva: did do some very basic Canva for Ewing

10) Rider: did not take a class.

11) Teaching ESL: participated in English School conversation nights.

Upon reflection, it wasn't as big a failure as I thought. I'll probably carry most of the goals over another year. Let me mull them over a little longer.
