Good morning from cold Green Bay, Wisconsin. It was 2 F when I got up this morning with a -5 F wind chill. Our high today will be 11 F. Right now, it's 7 F.
I welcomed in 2026 at midnight amid fireworks from Chicago. I also texted some of you and wished you a Happy New Year and got responses from those of you still awake to welcome the new year.
Do you have goals and resolutions this year?
My biggest goal is weight loss. I weighed in this morning at 196.4. I've gained a full pound with all that I lost with COVID. I guess it's to be expected. I'm eating more than I did during those two weeks. This year I'm going back to 2016 with a no sugar goal for the entire year. Along with that goal, I also want to get back to the pool. I got back there in November, but not since. Life has a way of circumventing your plans.
My next biggest goal is to get two books published this year: Faith to Believe, which I hope I can get published this month, and Love's Illusion before June. If I can get Faith to Believe published early, hopefully, I can follow it with Love's Illusion. That will give me the opportunity to publish a third if God allows.
Another hope I have is for continued good relationships with two of my children. My son lives here and my daughter is in Texas. It would be great to see her, my granddaughter, and great grandchildren. God willing it would make for a wonderful year.
Okay, those are my goals for 2026. I think they're doable. What are your goals for 2026? Let me know in the comments below. Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. A rock I painted last year.

Those are great goals! I hope to continue my weight loss, and maybe, if I can afford it, join a pool for exercise. My surgeon said I can either walk or get in a pool for exercise, and my back only allows me to walk so far. Unfortunately, our apartment’s pool hasn’t worked in four years, so I’ll have to pay if I want to use one.

Good morning. It was 37F at 5 am when I took my morning meds. We're supposed to reach 60F by this afternoon. It's sunny and bright right now.
I hope you have a wonderful day.

Happy New Year 2026 !!
May this year be a great one for you.
Chill has been taking over most of the places in Northern Hemisphere, especially above Tropics I suppose.
Yesterday we had Day Time Max of 14.2 C, a drop of 7 C from the previous day and cold winds.
Plus since we do not have Heating systems in every room it can be a challenge.
Do remember we face 40 C plus in summers !
By the way, it was a 6 years lowest Dec temperature on 31st !!
No set goals as such.
But plans - big and small.
Also, this year I have to face up to some harsh realities of life and talk to someone.
It could be tough and could have some consequences which might not be to my liking.
Yet I have to do it.
In short, another Life crossroads.
Anyways, best of health, wealth and Happy Times - 2026

I hope you accomplished all of your goals this year. God bless you always.
Where do you published your book? Is it online?
