Mainly practical things for me, I need to learn to drive as that will help me no end, and to get a second job to top up my income, and hopefully move to a new rental property that I can better afford.

I want to find a completely different job as well.
Mine are:
1. get healthy - eat better and actually use my gym membership
2. Have another baby, I think if I don’t get pregnant this year I’m just going to give up and accept I’ll have an only child
3. See my friends more often

I need to make plan but struggling - money is so tight at the moment this year is going to be really dull. 
I really want to cook more. I fell into a cycle of cooking the same meals on repeat but I want to get back to making new meals.
maybe we can help each other achieve these goals. support and encourage each other! this could be our goal check-in point.
imagine where we could be at the end of the year! 🥹🥹

Yes i live in London and use Meetup. Its wonderful. Mine was mainly hiking groups. I met 3 good friends all London based and now a partner of 3 plus years. Its been a slow but more importantly consistent process. Making connections does take time and patience. I also made friends with neighbours and moved jobs and kept a few friends a long the way.1) Make more friends/social contacts. I have found myself feeling lonelier than ever the past few months: I think a combination of the pandemic, friends having babies / settling down & not being interested in doing anything/ meeting up anymore (radio silence now from those who constantly messaged about doing stuff when they were single), & moving to a new area and wfh, so never in the office, haven’t helped.
I also find that living in London means that every few years, as friends either move back to their hometown or elsewhere in the country (due to obscene living costs), I am in this same predicament, having no one to do stuff with, so I need to find a long term hobby so I don’t find myself in this position again in 2026!
2) Linked to the above, join a book club/Meet-up group, badminton/tennis club. Things I am interested in but I waste time surfing the net instead of doing something more productive and beneficial.
3) Put myself first: I have become a lot better at this over the last few years, but I am going to improve on this in 2023. I am far too lenient with some people, and put my happiness and contentment in other people’s hands, so will continue to work on this aspect this coming year.
Finish writing my book. I started at the end of last year. I am terrible for starting things and not following through. I'm determined with this one.
Continue establishing and respecting my own boundaries. I've been in therapy for over a year now, and I'm really starting to feel better for it. And related to that, continue to improve my communication, not avoid confrontation at all costs.
