Happy New Year, friends! For those longtime Don’t Blink readers, you know my thoughts about the two New Year’s holidays. I am not a fan of New Year’s Eve as I find it more depressing than anything. With that said, Sloan and I had a nice time last night watching “Edwards Scissorhands” as Sid and Beau slept. My perspective changes when it comes to New Year’s Day. I find January 1 to be full of optimism and possibility. It truly is a fresh start!

So as we begin 2023, I encourage you to take advantage of the fresh blank slate you have in front of you. I have grappled with my opinion on New Year’s resolutions over the years but this is where my current mindset is: Set goals!

Wishing all my readers a great 2023!

You don’t have to change the world, but there is no harm in improving yourself over the next 52 weeks. Open up your phone, pull up your Notes app, and jot down a few of the aspirations that you have for 2023. Check it often.

I plan to continue authoring blogs in 2023. However, I can’t promise a certain quantity…or quality (sorry!). But you can probably expect some posts about food, a Thursday Rundown or two, and plenty of Don’t Blink sign offs. I look forward to having you along for the blogging ride in 2023. Thanks for your readership and have a blessed year. Don’t Blink.
