Welcome to 2020...Resolution Time.

I have a confession. I didn't make a New Year's Resolution. I probably should have. I have a lot of things I want to improve on.

I want to write a thousand words every day. I want to be more motivated to write my blog posts on a regular basis. I want to devote more time to my social media presence to improve my visibility as an author. I want to finish my current novel. I want to write a few short stories. I want to finish the sequel to my first novel. I want to have friends over more often. I want to start more projects around the farm. I want to tackle some major building projects. I want to get more herbal research done. I want to grow a bigger assortment of herbs. I want to cook from scratch more. I want to do more canning. I want to watch the news less. I want to lose weight. I want to be more active. I want work towards zero waste. I want to go plastic-free. I want to improve my carbon footprint. I want. I want. I want.

See how hard it would be to make one actual resolution?  I have a lot of things I want to focus on this year. I'm sure I'm not the only one with such a long list.

So, I guess if I had to pick just one thing to change, it would be to forgive myself these many perceived shortcomings and just do what I can do. I can't hope to do more than that and not drive myself absolutely crazy. 

I wish you all the peace and fortitude to stick to your own resolutions!
