Goals 2025/26

Every year it becomes harder to set goals, and yet again, particularly since I'm doing 25 Things in 2025, I wondered whether to bother, but 25 Things are short term, generally one-offs, and I don't think it hurts to look ahead and think about what I'd like to achieve in twelve months time.
So, lets go for a variety of goals:-
Goal No 1: Do a Themed Monthly Post
I've done this in the past, quite often with photos. If anyone would like to suggest a theme, please do so, as I haven't yet decided on one.
Goal No 2: Accept the Unexpected
Now, I know the saying is usually, 'Expect the unexpected', but this is more working with the unexpected when it happens. It's said that a battle plan never survives first contact with the enemy, but that's no reason to give up at that point.
Goal No 3: To Embrace My Personal Interests
Over the past few weeks I've been wondering why my daily To Do lists have had so much in the way of courses, crafting and writing, not to mention reading. But it suddenly occurred to me, why worry about it - if I really didn't want to do as much, then I could cut back. And if I do want to do all the courses/crafting/writing/reading&listening to books, then why not just enjoy it. If it were impinging on other things then it would be a problem (I don't count dusting within that!), but it's not. So what if I'm taking four online courses, stitching three or four different items, writing for three different challenges and have three books out of the library as well as the shelf and a bit of my own unread books - It's My Life!
