Good Bye 2025 and Hello 2026

It has been a long time since I have been on this site. I was so busy with so many changes in my life. Now, I am quite adjusted to living in my sister's place and have set new goals for this year. In fact, I stopped working in December last year and am planning to find a new job this year, which is my primary aim. However, I still need to delay the idea because the nanny of my nephew has not come back yet for Christmas vacation. In the meantime, I need to be productive by writing here and doing online teaching at random. Do you set your New Year resolutions for the year 2026? Image Credit: funimada.com

Welcome back. It is good to see you here. I set some resolutions and the main one is to quit smoking. I'm not doing very well with that right now but I hope that will change.

Hello and welcome back. It surely was a very long time you were not around. No resolutions for me.

It was really funny. I lost my time to come back after writing this. But now, I will be here more often than before. I have all the time to myself, busy with something.

It is so good to see you! I’m glad to hear you are doing well, and I hope you find a job you really like. I didn’t make any resolutions mostly because I tend not to keep them.

At some point, there were resolutions that could not be achieved. But still, it will keep striving to reach some of them. If they cannot be done, I will do it the next time around, perhaps for another week, month, or even year.

Happy belated New Year, Shavkat! I hope everything works out well for you this year! I never make resolutions for the new year. I'm always happy to see you when you have time to come to myLot.

I am glad that you feel this way. I am quite busy playing a mobile app and to earn something from it. I believed that I had shared this to you last time. However, you found it not interesting.

@Shavkat Yeah, I don't like doing gaming, especially on my phone. I don't take my phone online. Most of the time I can't see well enough to read anything on my phone screen. *shrug*

@DaddyEvil It is more on chatting with others and play with the gifts to reach a certain quota.

Welcome back my friend. Sometimes real life dictates where we can and cannot be and what we can and cannot do. I took have just returned here after 4 or 5 months away. Good to see you back. Good luck with finding work. New Year Resolutions, not for me.

I am glad to see you again and thank you for the warm welcome. Sometimes we really cannot control things and it tends to slow down our lives a bit.

@Shavkat I think these days I have very little control at all. Slowed down is me

@Ineeddentures I must say that I am not used to slowing down. But now, I need to have a setback and rethink what to do next.

I totally agree with you. Sometimes we need something new to ponder.
