Happy New Year to one and all π This is it.. it's 2025! π± Ready or not, here it comes. First day of the year, I begged myself to sleep more, and I did. π Just for today, I got up past eight in the morning. Thankfully, the kitties all cooperated and none even tried to wake me up. π
New year's eve dinner -- pork asado and sangria. π There was a time when I settled for less asado during this time of the year. Not this time. I think I really missed it so a kilo was enough for two days worth of meals. I'd admit it's pretty costly, but I'd say it's worth it. I even got to share some with the indoor kitties. π I think I'll credit my sangria for my good night's sleep. Even with the addition of Sprite, it does taste pretty strong. π·
First day of my year was pretty productive. However, I failed to make the printer work. I've done troubleshooting and even refilled the ink. It would print but without ink. I'm stumped. π Time for plan B. I think I'd need to write down the postcard addresses instead.
Speaking of postcards, I celebrate my tenth anniversary of joining Postcrossing. π It has been continuous except for the plandemic years. π Those were really dark times. May it never happen again in my lifetime. I have to work on 28 postcards this batch, so I better focus on completing them for sending out soonest.

I totally agree with the above quote. A part of me likes welcoming the new year for the same reason. I know that the crossing of the year is simply another day. Mostly, I do the same things anyway. Yet it must be the January air that brings in this feeling of something fresh, something new. It's like a reset of any bad habits and practices of the previous year. The best part is it's like a ghost town where I am on this January day. In the morning, the only noise I could hear was the whirring of my electric fan. π Alas, peace -- something I wish for more during regular days. π πβ€οΈπ‘
It's a new month. π Too early for my countdown. There will be time for that later on in the month. π I have moved my ALIVE tokens staking day to Friday. That way I can track that together with my LL coop earnings. It's good to organize tasks together.
Below are the affiliate sites I work on daily. Here I added a new banner for the other site I use that brings in added traffic to my LL coop link.
That's it for January 1st. I may not have accomplished much, but I made a little progress. Sometimes, that's just enough. π I wish everyone a fantastic new year ahead! π Nighty night from Manila. Ta-tah! π
