The end of 2016 is very near. Two more days..
This will be the last day of work for me, for 2016 that is. After working 7 days in a row (on all the shifts possible), I am waiting for the weekend to come. I am happy that I don’t have to work for New Years. It would’ve been too much for me.
We don’t have any plans for New Years. Truthfully, I don’t want to make any plans. Sleeping seems like a good option. I would love to just sit around all day and do nothing. Absolutely nothing!
2016 is almost done. And, I’m done as well.
For the first time in many years, we are going to start the New Year with no baggage (no financial responsibilities, no task left undone). We even have money in our pockets. That is the best we’ve done in ages!
Even our furry friends are doing great. Sure, they are a bit chubby (from the lack of exercising) but healthy nonetheless.
I am also happy that I finished a few personal goals. Not only did I finish my reading challenge, but I read a total of 61 books (the goal was 50). I got promoted (even if I hate every moment of it). The fact that they can’t fire me, makes it a lil bit better (since we are severely understaffed). It gives me time to plot my escape and even set some money aside.
January will be a time of relaxation for me.
I guess I am happy, in a very tired way. At least I am tired from manual labor and not anything else.

2017 List

I like having my own little traditions! This particular tradition is very dear to me! It goes hand in hand with the blog, with everything that happens around me and of course with my relationship with Johnny.
So, without further ado, here is what I wish to accomplish in 2017 (in no particular order):
Put away money each month (even if it is just a small amount).
Read 50 books (find new authors).
Take 3 separate vacations outside the city.
Take better care or myself and the way I dress.
Organize my time and tasks better, both at home and at work.
Upgrade my skills.
Get my drivers license.

I can’t wait to see where the new year takes us. It might not be to luxurious destinations, but I am sure it will be a good year with lots of fun things to come. I am not wishing that. I know for sure, since I plan on taking advantage of each day no matter how tired I may be.
We will be reaching a milestone. We will both turn 30 and we will celebrate our 10th year together. Just thinking about all the years and adventures we had, makes happy and full of hope for a better future.
May we all have a Happy New Year!
