Good Riddance, 2025
I'm glad to see the back of 2025, so let's focus on 2026.
As I write this, it’s 18:49 on New Year’s Eve. I’m sat in the lounge, with the fire going, annoyed that our NYE plans have been ruined by me having the flu.
I feels like an appropriately shitty end to a very shitty year.
In 2025, I:
- Worked way too much
- Spent too much time away from home travelling for work
- Neglected those I love
- Helped my Mum, where possible, through recovering from a heart attack
- Lost my sister
Yeah, it’s been rough. But toward the end of the year I made some decisions to make my life more sustainable. So I’m going to try and not dwell on the past, but instead look forward to the future.
As I look to 2026, I want to:
- Eat healthier and lose weight
- Exercise more
- Spend more time with loved ones
- Stop being such a shitty friend and make more of an effort
There’s more I want to do, but if I can get these done, I’ll consider 2026 a win.
We’ll see…
