New Year New Me: Bleh

Have you ever gotten physically ill by seeing the “New Year, New Me” posts on social media? Where someone you’ve known a while decides to take a new lease on life for the 7th year in a row?

You know they’re not going to change — they never do — and there’s no reason to read the post but you do anyway because it’s like a car accident on the side of the highway.

You just can’t look away.

I used to have that same issue. Every time I would see a post like that I would want to barf, and I would scroll past the post as quickly as I could to avoid being sucked into it like something off of Jumanji.

Today, I do not have social media. That’s right — I made the decision to remove myself from Facebook and Instagram back in December. It was too much drama with very little reward. Plus, too many people are on there now trying to earn money rather than actually sharing their life and experiences with friends and family.

So, I have yet to see a “New Year; New Me” post. That was, of course, until I started writing this particular piece of work.

I have now become one of those “New Year, New Me” people. I quit smoking (currently vaping), I lowered my intake of caffeine and now drink lemon water on the regular and I am working with my husband on buying our first home.

So many things are changing, and it just so happens to be around the beginning of the year. Whether I want to be or not, I am now a New Year, New me person and I couldn’t be happier.

With all that being said, I want to shout out to all that read my work regularly and give you some insights into my plans for myself here on Medium for the upcoming year.

1. I will be writing a piece of work for you wonderful individuals once a week.
2. My YouTube channel will begin with weekly videos again starting Jan 22nd and I cannot wait to share some amazing pieces of work with you all by some wonderful writers.
3. I will continue to write random mom thoughts, funny and helpful pieces.

If you have created a “New year, New me” piece here on Medium, leave the link in the comments and I’ll be sure to give it a look.

I promise not to barf. 🤮
