Goodbye 2024

It's been a year!  Some good things have happened, some bad, some truly horrific and some bafflingly weird!  I leave the determination of which event is what type up to the individual.

This year I made it a goal to post/blog more and I did!  I didn't quite meet my minimum of once a month, but still did post most months and some months (especially at the beginning of the year) several times.  I think I want to make this a goal for 2025 as well and see if I can be more consistent.  I appreciate being able to look back on what was happening at different times of the year.  I especially liked being able to track (at least a little) project progress.  Oh and the weather.  That's a good thing to track too.

And on that note, the final Question Of The Day for 2024:

December 31. Have you ever been on a diet, or do you just try and eat healthily? Do you plan to start a diet in the new year?

Yes I have.  Many different ones over the years including Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers.  None were all that successful.   The most effective one ever, is being too poor to buy much in the way of my favourite convenience meals and snacks.  That "diet" lost  me something like 50 lbs (minimum) and 4 to 5 "dress" sizes.  I expect 2025 will be much the same, so no new diets!

I have enjoyed these Questions Of The Day (even when I didn't post them) and am happy to see [personal profile] kazzy_cee  is offering them for 2025!

P.S. It's getting colder again. It was practically shirt sleeve weather for Christmas, but today's high was only -7 C (19.4 F) and it snowed both overnight and during the day with more snow expected tomorrow.

I'm not sure I want to be.  The laptop doesn't seem to want to be awake either, so slow!

‘Tis very cold this morning. -37C / -34.6F with a wind chill of -47C / -52.6F. So glad we don’t have to go anywhere. It’s bright and sunny though and it looked so pretty earlier with the sun peeking through a haze of ice fog. I was not awake enough to think of getting a photo. Mind, not sure if anything we have camera wise would be able to capture that.

Lazy day planned, coffee and messing about online this morning, brunch and then studio time. Absolutely no chores/housework/distractions! Last two days I kept getting derailed and Thing Two’s new PJ’s still are not finished. I’m sure they would have been appreciated the last few nights (so cold).


Question of The Day:

January 14 - National Dress up your Pet Day - do you have any pets? If you used to, did you ever dress them up?
Yes, two kitties- Satsuma and Piggie. No we have never tried dressing them up, it would not go well, for any of us!
