Happy 2025!!
It’s been about a year since my last entry. Journaling has always been a struggle. This time, I want to flip this on its head. I am archiving posts to move into gratitude and positive thoughts. One of my firm beliefs is that you get what you give. Another more straightforward way of thinking about this is Karma. With this in mind, I want to focus on sharing joy, gratitude, and appreciation for where I am. I will walk away from what I perceive to be missing. I would love your thoughts: the inbox is open, as are comments.
Gratitude: I am grateful for my healthy parents coming over for the first dinner of 2025 and watching Wicked with us. N is home from school, and his girlfriend is here enjoying the time together for this fresh start. I am thankful for T., who handled our New Year Balloons with zeal, creating a festive vibe for us that lasted long after the kiddos left for their evening plans.
Reading: I recently started reading Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara. Still working through character dev., and am getting to the more interesting characters. Hope to find a little reading time today. Find it here.
Wearing: Still in these star PJs, which seemed the right way to bring in the new year!
Eating: I made sausage lasagna yesterday for today’s dinner – understanding that after a late night, I would not be up for anything more than reheating. The recipe I followed is one part courtesy of Alison Roman and the NY Time Cooking app and one part experience making lasagna for others.
