This Week 1

Hello everyone and welcome to today’s post.

We’ve reached the first Friday of the year which means it’s time for the launch of my new weekly life updates series – This Week. If you want to know what to expect in this series you can check out yesterday’s post where I talked about it in detail.

Here’s what I’ve been up to over the last seven days.

NEW YEAR

New Year is always such a celebratory time for me and I love the idea that no matter what you’ve been through in one year, you have the chance to start again in the new year. You have a chance to do better, feel better, be better.

I spent this New Year with friends of mine, only the second time ever that I haven’t celebrated at home with family.

At this time of reflecting and being grateful for what I have, I realise how thankful I am to have these friends in my life. They are so kind, supportive, and generally fun to be around.

Being with these guys to see in the new year really was a great way to start 2018 and I had the best time.

NEW BLOGPOSTS

As I do every year, I have made it a mission to put up more posts this year.

I wanted to start as I mean to go on, so already this week, I have put up four before this one (check the numbers on the corner of the header images). I am feeling so optimistic about the content I am planning to put up throughout 2018 and I am proud of the start I have made.

Putting up new posts honestly makes me feel so good, as does planning them out, and I am glad to have done so much already just five days into 2018!

SETTING OFF ON THE MY 2018 PROJECT

Of course, if you’ve read this week’s posts, you will know that I have kicked off the My 2018 project. This plays a huge part in my life and my positive mindset o having kicked this off, I am naturally filled with optimism about the year ahead.

You can read about the project HERE.

To finish with, I am going to link you to something I saw just this morning which I absolutely love. It is a video of a dog taking itself for a sled ride, and it’s amazing!

And there you go, those are some of my highlights from this week.

I hope you all had a good first week of the year. If you want to share highlights/clips/stories from your week, you can do so in the comments or on my social media accounts.

I will be back on Monday with the first of the new Music Monday series, so keep an eye out for when that goes live.

Until then, have a great weekend and remember to keep positive, keep smiling, and above all, keep believing!
