Week One Down....Fifty-one to Go


This is a brief 'ramble' about week one if the new year. 

The first week of the new year has past.  It seems like it sped by so quickly. We just celebrated the welcome of the new year and here we are week one gone. 

So far I have been keeping goals. I have posted blogs and written in my journal each day.  

Feel like the days are just speeding by so quickly.  

This first week of the year has been the coldest I have experienced since my move to Florida.  The air conditioner has been turned off and heat turned on.  Socks, sweaters and long pants brought out of storage. I even donned a pair of gloves due to chill on steering wheel of the car. Of course I should not complain as in many other places temperatures were in the minus zero with wind chill making it even worse.  

Only time I ventured out was when I absolutely needed to go out.  It was interesting to see those here in the 'Sunshine State' bundled up like Nanook of the North.  

With my staying put inside it gave me time to do other indoor activities such as catch up on reading, writing in my journal and polishing up a few writing pieces I had written years prior.  Perhaps this brief period of cold weather here in Florida was a good thing for me to work on those writing pieces.  No doubt I may not have gotten around to working on them if the weather was warmer. So far in one week of the new year I have kept my goals but  another week begins.  I wonder what challenges this week will bring. Will I fall off the good intention wagon or forge ahead to keep my goals?  Time will tell and I can't predict what the days ahead will bring. All I know is if I fail I will not look back at the failure but begin again. 

Have you kept your goals for these first seven days of 2018?
If you began them but slacked off; begin again.  A new day is here and new week has started.  

Until next time, enjoy week two of 2018. For those in areas of cold, snowy and winters weather keep warm and toasty; spring is about seventy-one days away.
