New Year, New me .....

 lol .. yeah nope.  Hate to break it to you, what you see is what you get.  Not sure if that is a good thing or not.  But you have been warned.  Life is too short to be any one else but you.  I think last year was proof of that.

Anyway after last years mess.  I think I will go with the flow a bit more on my goals/resolutions for the year.  I see alot of people saying, they are going to take each day as it comes.  That they what to take more time for themselves.   Sounds good to me.  I know I stretch myself too thin most days and don't leave anything for me.  That is why I like being online, doing things that interest me.  These things are just for me, no one else. 

So with that in mind I want to find a few minutes each day to pop on here and post something.  Anything even if it is just to vent about things that are going on with me.  

I really need to get out of my comfort zone that I have been living in for way too long. I feel like I have gotten into a rut.  Of course I decided to do this when you really can't do much socializing well at least in person anyway.  So that is why I want to put more of me out there.  I tend to keep things to myself which most of the time isn't a good thing.  But then I think why would anyone be interested in what I have to say and so I don't. 

I have other interests out side of being online so I am going to try and do more of that as well, reading ( I have a blog for reviews that I am terrible of keeping up to date), photography ( I have a blog for that as well).  I like to walk, but not in the winter.  I hate the cold well it is more like once I get cold I am not fit to be around. lol I like doing puzzles, regular and 3d.  I have a few activity books that I like to do as well. 

Anyway, the jury is still out for me if this year is going to be better then the last.  We will see I guess. 

2020 was one big dumpster fire .....

 Well this year has been a shit show from the beginning and it didn't get any better.  Here in my little slice of the world we started with Snowmagedden which hit us in January.  Then the Pandemic hit us in March.  Which we are still dealing with and will be still dealing with going into the new year. But we are doing better then most place.  But I guess that is the benefit of living on an island.   We still get case but they are all travel related due to people coming and going for work.  

I would like to say things can't get any worse but I am not about to temp fate on that one.  She might call my bluff. 

Not sure what has kept me going all these months.  I keep looking for the light at the end of the tunnel and I thought we were seeing that with the vaccine but then the UK gets a case of covid that hasn't been seen before.  So of course Canada can't be left out and now we are seeing new cases of this variant as they are calling it.  

But I guess one good thing came of this year, Trump wasn't re-elected.  So I guess that is something.  But he isn't going out with out a fight.  He is acting like a spoiled child that didn't get his way.  Thank god I don't live in the States but I feel for all those who are struggling and going without because of that man.  I haven't seem someone so selfish as that man.  

Anyway just had to put my few thoughts down on this year so when this is finally all over I can look back.  But I don't think I will forget this year any time soon. 

Only a few more days left of this dumpster fire of a year and I can't wait to see it in my rearview mirror.  Here's hoping for better things in the new year.  Stay safe, wear your mask and keep your 6 feet, keep your bubble. 

Welcome to a New Year....2020

This post was a long time in the works.  I just haven't had a moment to sit and post anything.   See posts to come on that.

Like every new year I have high hopes to what the year has in store for me.   I look at the new year as wiping the slate clean to all the crap of the previous year.   I just hope that unlike every other year I am not left disappointed and nothing has changed.  

I know alot believe that change comes from with in, and only you can change your fate.  I would like to believe that but when there are obstacles at ever turn it is hard not to get discouraged. 

Anyway each year I try to do more things for myself, to carve out a little slice of heaven for myself.  Even if it is just baby steps towards what I want, what I need.  As long as I continue to move forward I am making progress. 

I thought I knew where this post was going to go when I stared it but some how it gone off the rails as it were.
Not sure if that is a good thing or not.   Maybe I shouldn't post late at night, almost midnight here, but when it is my only alone time I have to take what I get. 

Happy New Year everyone.
