If we were having coffee, catching up on the month that’s flown by, you’d probably ask me – how was your New Years?
I’d tell you that unfortunately my fiancé and I caught COVID celebrating Christmas Eve with my family. We never really got terribly sick, but quarantined for the first 10 days of January so it was quite a boring start to the month.
And you’d say that’s such a bummer, did you at least read any good books or watch any good shows?
That’s about all I did! We binged Maid on Netflix and I want to read the book it’s based off of. I also read It Ends With Us and Verity by Colleen Hoover, as well as A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Maas.
Wow! Do you have any goals for the New Year?
I’ve set my word for the year, but I also rekindled my love of reading and downloaded Goodreads. I set my goal for 30 books this year.
That sounds great, did you do anything fun?
I tried a hot chocolate ranks top 25 in the US and CA by Yelp! And visited a photo pop up at a local mall. Besides that, it was a pretty low key month, I’ve really been enjoying spending time home with my dogs.
What about you? Tell me one fun thing from your January in the comments!

After a 2 year hiatus I was able to go snowboarding again!! I also finally found a bar cart on FB Marketplace to use as a mobile plant stand I’ve been searching for for months and I am smitten.

Didn’t really do much of anything. Just carrying on with our endless lockdowns and mandates.

Like you and your fiance, my January was pretty low-key. I did discover late night reruns of Fantasy Island on a local TV station. It’s on too late for me to stay up and watch but I’ve been recording them. I remember watching this show as a child. Very good 😊👍.

I was sick end of the month (it’s not covid but a very bad head cold, Day 8) and was depressed beginning of January. I didn’t do anything out of the ordinary this month and tried to do basic things, like go for walks outside etc. I played a lot of ACNH on the switch, more than I’d like to admit.

It would be cool to visit your island sometime! I find this game very relaxing, and it’s nice that you can easily pick up where you left off 🙂

I also got COVID for Christmas! It wasn’t an awful case and I don’t celebrate Christmas so it wasn’t absolutely devastating, but it put quite a damper on New Year’s

Yes totally damper on New Years! But I think if I didn’t get it and went out for New Years I probably would’ve gotten it then so 🤷🏼♀️

I have quite a few that I’ve done repeatedly. This was a private party with about 10 people, so I got to sing a lot. I opened the night with All I Want by Toad the Wet Sprocket, and closed the night with Hammer to Fall by Queen, which totally blows out my voice (even though I sung it a whole step lower, in the key of G instead of A) which is why I saved it for last. In between, among others, I also did Mama I’m Coming Home, which surprised my friend who didn’t expect Ozzy Osbourne to have sung slow songs.

My biggest thing from January was saying yes to my wedding dress 🙂
