The CK Daily – New Beginnings and Gratitude!
Happy Monday!
It’s been a while! I hope you had a great Christmas and New Years! I can’t believe it’s already 2025. We’re in the future, folks! I can hear the movie voice in my head every time 2025 is mentioned… “In the year 2025…” I enjoyed some quality time with my family over the break. We went and visited the Georgia Aquarium and the kids absolutely loved it. They especially loved the dolphin show there and the whole place was decorated with beautiful Christmas trees. I’m very thankful for the time we spent together, and I think we managed to unlock a core memory with the kids! If you’re ever in the Atlanta area, I highly recommend the aquarium, it’s a must see in my book.
This season I was extra thankful, because I had a slight health scare a few days before Christmas where I had to spend 3 days in the hospital. I’ll probably write more on that later, but through the grace of God, I was able to get out of the hospital pretty much unscathed (just have to take a bit more medications than usual), and I was able to spend the holidays relatively normally. I’m looking forward to 2025 and putting all the 2024 craziness behind me. I even spent a day intentionally writing some goals down for the year. I don’t like calling them resolutions, I usually fail at every resolution I set, so I’ll just stick with goals. For me this year is about intentionality and consistency! Wish me luck!
I hope you have a great day and a wonderful week!
