By the grace and mercy of God, I pray we all have a fantastic 2026!

✨ 2026 INS ✨

• Bible study: This is always a given, because God is & will always be first in my life.
• Pilates: Took a couple classes and I LOVED it!
• Cleaner eating: I want to try cutting out sugar again. I did it for a month a couple years ago, so let’s see if I can do it for longer now.
• Firmer Boundaries: I had a habit of placing boundaries & allowing them to get broken, not anymore. My peace, peace of mind and joy comes first.
• Read more romance novels: My new genre obsession. I’m a psychological thriller girl through & through; however, I decided to try a romance book for the season and fell in love. I’m on my 7th one for the month of December.
• Learning to do my makeup/Take a makeup class: I know the basics but I do want to take it to the next level.
• Budgeting + investing: My husband has got me into investing & who doesn’t like watching their money grow?
• Trying new foods: I love to cook! I have a few recipes I want to try out. Also, we love going out to eat, so trying new restaurants is on the list.
• Trying different hairstyles: I used to try different hairstyle frequently when I was younger, I want to do so again.
• Pickleball: This is something hubby & I want to try.
• Therapy: I started therapy again and it’s been much needed.

🚫 2026 OUTS 🚫

• Emotional Over‑Availability: absorbing chaos that isn’t mine, trying to help those who don’t want to be helped.
• People‑Pleasing: Since my daughters have passed, I’m getting better at not shrinking to keep others comfortable and I love it here.
• Self‑Abandonment: I’m no longer trying to “keep the peace” at my own expense or overriding my needs to help others.
• Guilt for Choosing Myself: Absolutely no one is going to guilt trip me for choosing myself.

2026 isn’t about doing more. It’s about feeling safer inside my own body, mind and life

Xoxo, Abi🤎
