Goals Update - January 2021

 Hello to everyone and hello to 2021!

So. It has been a while. I’m not entirely sure what happened to my blogging habits, but I am back and ready to start up again!

I’ll get straight to it – I have lost my habits completely. There was one week in December where I was dealing with a personal, highly emotional issue, and I spent too many nights using distractions techniques to get myself to stop dwelling on the problem.

I’m back to square one. Which is okay. I’m not beating myself up about it for once. I’m just . . . starting again. That’s all.

I’m sure you won’t be surprised to know that journaling will be my number one habit again. However, I’m using the new lockdown just like I did last April to really reset myself and get to work on what I need in my life.

In the lockdown last year, I was going through some major anxiousness with the uncertainty of seeing my family. I used my routines as a way to help motivate and distract me. There is much less of the sense of anxiousness this time around, but there will definitely be a motivation issue since I will not be leaving the house for any reason.

Right now, I have one goal, but I’ll see how much I can fit in this month as well.

How is everyone else feeling? Are you setting small goals? Intentions? Resolutions? Let me know!

 Is fall not the best reading season? I’m so glad I’ve had a few opportunities to sit on the front porch, wrapped in a fuzzy blanket with a hot drink and my book. Right now, it’s raining outside and all I want to do is cozy up and get back to my book. I’ve read some great non-fiction in the past six weeks. I’m learning so much about how people relate to the world around them. That is so important to me. Check them out! The Reason I Jump: The Inner Voice of a Thirteen-Year-Old Boy with Autism – Naoki Higashida – 4 Stars         This is a very short book that I think everyone should read – particularly those who work with children. Although knowledge has come a long way, there is still so much more to be learned about autism. This book is a series of question that Naoki Higashida answers from his point of view. Interspersed is also a handful of short stories from Higashida’s point of view.         It’s an i...

Copycat the Cool Way #2

I admit that I am a little late with this post. Things have been insane school-wise so I haven’t been keeping up to date with all my posts. Or anything for that matter. Plus, I got a new phone and I had to figure out how to get all the pictures from my old phone on to my laptop. Ugh. The following blurb is an imitation of my brain: duibqieufbijenwcijaaiojcfpo wijojndwqioNQIOENFONIONICQNINQ/ what? Descriptive right? Bear with me, I’m pre-writing a couple posts while I’m focused on blogging. I got you covered. Monday- Probably my favourite pants ever. They’re super comfy, but it can be tough to style them. I took the inspiration from a picture from a magazine (I think it might have been Glamour). It was also a spring day in Canada (did not last long), so I wanted to keep it cool temperature-wise. I have a blue cardigan that I typically wear instead of the scarf. Also, rainboots. Buy rainboots. They are the best for the icky, slushy, melty weather that is just around the corn...
