Goodbye 2025, Hello 2026!

Hello, first Monday of 2026! This morning was a rough time waking up (especially for Junie, who had been coming into our bed to lie with us until like.. 9:30am most mornings this break) but I know we'll all adjust back to "regular" life soon enough.

Looking back at my bingo card from 2025 - I did not complete a blackout, but I did get BINGO multiple times!

I learned :

• I am capable of being disciplined on social media (as long as I respect the "screen time limit has been reached" screen) and I do not miss out on anything but not being on Instagram for longer than 20 minutes a day
• I should continue to purge my closet of old underwear and purchase new underwear
• When there is time and energy to do so, cooking > ordering in, even for parties, but good enough is also good enough
• I really like performing and dancing and hope to continue doing so in 2026
• Non-fiction is harder for me to read than fiction but it's good for me to read out of my comfort zone

Blogging (or doing any sort of creative practice) consistently is hard! But I think I wrote frequently enough this year to consider year 10 (!!! crazy) of Photo Weeks done. Will I continue in 2026? I will think about it.
