I think it's been pretty good. Some might say that I made some amazing accomplishments... I think I simply feel like I kept the status quo. Which, in and of itself, might actually be considered an accomplishment now that I think about it. I completed my second triathlon and an 8k, along with finishing my second round of graduate work. I think, perhaps, I feel like I was so concentrated on school that I didn't have time to focus on some other things I enjoy, therefore while the graduate certification is a big deal and accomplishment, I don't feel like I got anything else done.
I promised Captain Awesome AND myself that I would really focus on my weight and nutrition goals this year. I didn't gain any weight last year but I didn't really loose any either. So, that is probably my biggest focus this year. Now that I don't have school, homework, papers, and group projects stressing me out and demanding my attention, I can pay more attention to working out and eating better.
I'd like to list dozens of other goals and a huge exciting "to do" list but I'm afraid that would take away from what I want to be my main focus. I know how easily distracted I can be so if I formalize those other things on a list there is the risk I will feel like I have too much to juggle and then I might not prioritize properly again. So. While I look forward to doing some more art and reading and writing, those will stay simple hobby things to entertain me on occasion but not goals or tied to any specific event or objective.
This new year will be exciting enough in that I'm working on a new career; planning another triathlon and another 8k; and I'm looking forward to some new work opportunities with AM. I'm off now to work on putting together lesson plans with Thomas to teach P about religion this year for homeschool.
I hope you all have a happy and safe new year!
