Happy New Year! Plans for 2022

 Hello Friends,

I hope you are doing well. Happy New Year!  Last night Liam and I stayed in and watched Dick Clark's Rockin' Eve. We had snacks and snuggled on the couch with Millie. At midnight we celebrated with our prosecco and welcomed 2022. We are so happy to be celebrating another year and we hope that this year is a good one and we are all healthy and happy. We are looking forward to some goals we have for the year like continuing to grow our family.

I have been thinking of plans for my blog this year and want to make some changes for the better. My blogging schedule will change from once a week to three times each week. There will be posts every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday this year. I will continue on with the posts I have been doing on Wednesdays and Thursdays usually concerning knitting and reading updates. Then Monday's posts will be updates from the weekend and plans for the weeks ahead, and Fridays will be a mix of topic posts and Friday Favourites. I really enjoyed writing daily for blogmas and was inspired to up my posting game this year and blog more frequently.

This year I have two planners to help keep me on track and organized. I received the new 2022 Happy Planner from my mom for Christmas. It is beautiful with flowers on front and it is written Let Love Grow on the cover. Last year I bought myself a bullet journal which is the mauve one below, to record my habits and track other goals. I make habit trackers, book trackers, and will also start writing monthly goals there and wrote out my goals for the year to keep track.

My Happy Planner layout this week and I have planned to make macaroni and cheese tonight as our yearly tradition on New Year's day.

Last year I started the year with showing you my habit tracker for the month of January. This year I have it in my bullet journal and made my own tracker. I just listed the days of the month and added drawings of each habit I wanted to track at the top. I have found that doing this really does inspire me to meet these goals and work on completed them all each day. I think this layout will also inspire me because I can see a completed line each day and if I am missing something I will be more motivated to want to complete it to fill it in. I will share how it ends up looking all filled in (hopefully) by the end of the month. So far I have colored in blog post as I am working on this post today and going to publish it.

The habits I want to track and complete daily are: read, 8 glasses of water, exercise, close rings/loops (on Apple watch), blog, tidy, meditate, and knit!

I draw the photo at the top, then have a legend at the top for reference.

Thank you for visiting my blog today! I am so excited for 2022 and hope it is a good year for all of us.

  Have a great day!
