It’s a week of recaps, my friends. First and foremost, this is my last post of 2017!
I hope you have a wonderful, fun, safe, exciting (or relaxing) end of the year!!
Happy New Year!
(You can either read on for my year-end recap or peace out from here 😉 )
My goals for 2017 were as follows:
Be Healthy. FAIL. Same weight and habits and vices going strong. *face palm*
Feel Less Guilty About Downtime. While I still enjoy multitasking, I definitely don’t feel guilty about indulging in some downtime.
Read more. I read 25 books in 2016. I read 33 this year.
Become a Morning Person. No… this didn’t happen. I’ve only recently started rolling out of bed a little earlier and a little less rushed…
Get on Schedule. Eh. Meal planning happened and all the holidays fell into place. This is a work in progress, but I’ll take it. *shrug*
In my opinion, 2017 was a challenging and transitional year…
The political climate this year was tense and frustrating and volatile. I don’t see that ceasing in 2018, but I’m going into the new year hopeful and hungry for equality and change and progress.
At the start of 2017 I join K at Pageantry Innovations. We sold our first home together over the summer and moved into a new one in October. We went to some weddings, watched a lot of NASCAR, and took a family vacation to the beach. K brought home a new vehicular baby and we checked some concerts off our bucket list. I quit biting my nails, I blogged consistently, and we hit a new milestone with the business. K turned 30, Enzo turned 4 (!), and Lylee turned 6 (!!). One of our favorite babies was born this year & lots of friends announced pregnancies, engagements, and new significant others. For us, it was a stressful year full of learning and change, but I wouldn’t take any of it back.
I remember coming out of 2016 feeling terrible. The end of 2017 doesn’t feel so bad.
Personally, I’m grateful for the year I had. I’m hoping 2018 proves to be an even better one.
(Recaps from 2016 and 2015. And 2014 for good measure, lol.)
How was your 2017?
