Resolutions for 2017

[tigeranne]

Here is my ambitious list:

1: I will not let despair win.
2: I will find a "project" for each night after work, even if it is mundane stuff I have to do anyway.
3: I will try to get back in touch with people I know, even if it's just by liking their FB pictures.
4: I will try to be the best I can at work.
5: I will work out a bit, every day, even if I feel that the world is ending, and I want to go to sleep.
6: I will try to learn how to do DIY home-improvement, starting by painting the long-planned work room.
7: I will not let despair win.
8: I will eat lots of fruit and vegetables.
9: I will quit drinking sodas and energy drinks on weekdays.
10: I will go into town every Friday after work, for old times' sake.
11: I will not sleep longer than 9 on days off, unless I has a sick.
12: I will not stay up longer than to 1am, if I have the next day off.
13: I will try to catch up on Game of Thrones, so I know what people are talking about.
14: I will apply for all the "dream jobs" I find listed, even if I have zero chance at getting them.
15: I will actually start an organized attempt at getting my novel series down on "paper."
16: I will not let despair win.

Yeah, I still fear the new year, but for the first time in forever I have some hope, too. At least for now. *knocks on wood* *am kind of superstitious*

Maybe the problem is not so much that you don't know how to replace the things you miss, but that you don't have anything to replace them with? Maybe this year you'll find stuff. :)

I hope so. If I'm lucky, I should be a car-owner soonish, and everyone tells me I will "feel so much freer" when I can "go wherever I want." Too bad the gas prices are going to make driving prohibitively expensive. x(
