I accomplished way more in 2020 than I thought I was going to!
- Got a new job (yippee)
- Hung out with my youngest sister (haven’t really spoke to her in a few years)
- Gave up a bunch of junk that was hurting my body and my time (Magic: The Gathering, Coke Zero, Del Taco, and added sugar [HOLY SHIT THIS IS HARD])
- Took a sweet 3 week stay-cation between jobs
- … Went for a long ass bike ride? I don’t think this counts but I definitely went further than I’ve ever gone before.
I really don’t think February is going to be as good as January, but it’s certainly going to be harder.
- The sugar cravings are getting crazy – I saw a sugared croissant and I almost instinctively lunged at it like a sugar vampire. Caught myself at the last second.
- School started last week – every day I have to do at least one hour of studying / homework.
- I still need to bring regular running back into my daily schedule – I can’t rely on bike-commuting to be my only source of weekday activity.
- Eating healthier is cool but DANG my weight is barely going down. One year ago I was 180, now I’m 207. Guess that’s part of getting older? No clue.
A couple things I really want to do are:
- My wife’s birthday is at the end of Feb, and I really want to make it fun for her. I’m going to try to give her the best birthday party I’ve ever given her before!
- I want to meet some cool people from work! At my last job I knew a lot of people, but none of them became my friends (I don’t consider myself to have any friends besides my wife). This one’s going to be tough. I don’t expect to have this one closed by end of Feb, but that’s OK.
That’s it!
