Hi Y’all!
I think most folks will agree that 2026 has been a tough year. I started my year off feeling a bit lost. I saw what was happening in the world and felt hopeless. I was unemployed and struggling to gain traction with my job hunt. I did what I could to remain positive. I spent quality time with my friends and family. I revisited my old hobbies that I dropped due to a lack of energy. But now, after 6 months of unemployment, I finally accepted a role, and I am thrilled. I’m genuinely excited about the job and the organization, and I’m thankful to have found this role.
There is still a lot of bad in the world. But I feel better prepared to do what I can to put some good into it. I have learned to appreciate what I have and enjoy the little things. I still love shopping and thrifting (some of my favorite activities), but I feel more content.
Here’s to turning 2026 around (if only a little). Thank you all for supporting me during this crazy year. I love you all.
