Goals

Happy March! Normally I really like February, but this year it was hard. The last half of the month was crazy busy with work, and I definitely felt like life was happening to me instead of the other way around.

March marks one year since the beginning of the pandemic, which is crazy, but I’m trying to bring some positive energy into the month; I’ve got a lot of fun things I want to do and accomplish.

But I’m getting ahead of myself—first let’s go through what I did and didn’t accomplish (mostly didn’t) in February.

Happy February, and happy almost birthday to me! I’m feeling optimistic about the month ahead. January was rough, but I love the fresh start a new month brings.

Happy New Year! I always love the promise of a new year, and 2021 is no exception… obviously.

For the past few years, instead of a new year’s resolution, I’ve chosen a Word of the Year. I will never top my word of the year for 2020 (it was…. Home), but I have to say, I think I did a pretty great job for 2021, too.

Hello, December! We’re getting close to finishing out the Worst Year Ever™, everyone! We can do it!

Before we talk about my goals for the end of the year, let’s see how I did in November.

Happy (?) November! I’ve got a lot of anxiety about the month ahead, but goal setting keeps me grounded.

Before I get ahead of myself, let’s review last month’s goals!

It’s October! And thank god, because 2020 needs to hurry up and be done already.

Before we get into the month ahead, let’s see what I accomplished in September.

Happy September! I’m so ready for a new month. But before we get to that, let’s see how I did in August.

I woke up this morning to my beginning-of-the-month reminders on my phone and thought to myself… there’s no way it’s a new month already. I JUST gave Stanley his flea meds… right?

What is time any more?

Now seems like a really weird time to be talking about personal goals. But goal setting is self-care for me, and I can’t be a good ally if my mental health is in shambles. </privilege>

Happy May! I feel like April both dragged and went by in the blink of an eye, but I’m definitely happy to see May. Before we get into the goals for the month, let’s reflect on last month!

Thank god March is over, amirite? Not that April will be any better but yeesh, March took forever.

Before we get into my goals for this month, let’s recap my goals for March. (Spoiler: they didn’t go well.)
