For the first time, I am going to set myself personal goals. This past year and my illness/chronic condition has made me evaluate my life.

Organised At Home

• File paperwork when it arrives
• Food shop better and cook better
• Sort bedrooms out
• Clear out rubbish
• Sort shelves in bookcases
• Over pay the mortgage as soon as back to work

Holidays

• Book relaxing breaks and have 1 day at the hotel resting !
• Do not overbook yourself through the year – with redundancy a good chance I could book lots of trips and wear myself out !

Self Care

• Relax and rest more – take into account your RA – I know I need at least eight hours sleep a night
• More fruit and vegetables – I always struggle with this – thinking smoothies might be a way to do this
• Eat less sugar – no idea how I am going to do this, as I love my chocolate
• Eat less red meat – it is believed that red meat is a prime cause of inflammation and a cause of RA
• Exercise taking into account your RA
• Social Media Detox
• Paint your nails – I missed this so much last year
• Do things that make you happy !

Books

• Return to reading
• Re-read your favourite books
• Clear our books you are never going to read – space !

Will I achieve any of these goals, to be honest I do not know. I do need to change my lifestyle. The last twelve months have been eye opening for me. I need to make changes and hope too. I need to take better care of myself !
