Just Jot January – 2022

Posted on January 1, 2022 by scr4pl80

Combination post for #JusJoJan and #SoCS as curated by our hostess, Linda G. Hill. Thanks so much, Linda, for continuing this project. We know it is a lot of work and I, for one, appreciate it.

The word for today is “Resolve.” My resolve is to get the vision cards made by the end of the weekend. I’m using the same themes as last year: home, finances, craft business, adventure, health, connection. Of course I’m going to call them something different because that’s what I do.

I’m also making the resolve to pay for the upgrade on WP. I realize that I want to be able to post more pictures and what will I do when the A to Z comes up in April without more room?

And I’m going to continue with the 1 Second Every Day app. It is fun to look back over the year and see the snippets of what was happening. I’m putting it on YouTube as I’m typing so you can click here to see my 2021.

One other “challenge” that is happening this month is a WP one called #Bloganuary. The prompt for today is to write a letter to our teenage selves. I remember so well thinking that I would never be married since I had no boyfriends during high school and was not really one of the popular kids. Mostly I went to school and then went to work at the library. I would tell that girl to be patient and that things would work out for the best. I would explain that she is an introvert and that while meeting people and feeling comfortable in crowds would not come easy, it’s not impossible to have the life you dream of.

And I resolve to read 40 books this year. I didn’t quite make that total in 2021, hitting 35. I am using the Popsugar challenge as usual and keeping track on Goodreads. I’m Scr4pl80 (Scrap Lady) there as I am most places on the interwebs so look for me! I wish everyone a most wonderful New Year, full of an abundance (my word of the year) of joy, peace and friendship.

    Happy New Year! Congrats on making the decision to upgrade. You’ve put a lot of effort and time into your blog, it’d be a shame to have to say goodbye to it just because of WP forcing you to upgrade. Turds. You’ve made the best of it as always and you’re still smiling! Great list of resolves too. Best wishes for a fun and busy January with all your blogging plans!!

      Depends on what you want to use it for. They have several different options. I’m thinking that I might do the $25 a month, shut down my other one that is connected with the Etsy shop because I’m not really using it and then add my products on here too.
