I Hate New Year’s Eve
I dislike New Year’s Eve because I was on my own. I was in bed by 10:00 PM. Some might argue I need friends here, but I’m not sure about that. I’m going through another phase of wondering, “Why am I here in Rotterdam?” I felt quite depressed last night.
Spending time with Grace, along with work, takes a lot of energy out of me. I don’t really have much left for socializing with others—maybe once a week.
I got up around 9:30 AM today, rather than my usual 7:00–7:30 AM.
I’m ignoring the fact that it’s New Year. I’ve set goals for the coming months and a new set of annual goals. In fact, I’m currently reviewing my goals and planning what I should do. Progress through 2023 has been really good.
I think I have one more year working at DWP, through to Spring 2025. Then who knows?
