Fill my cup

Resolutions for the New Year? Nah, I don’t think so. I beat myself up enough as it is.

I will be glad to get back into a regular routine though. In bed early, up early, daily attempts at working out. Hopefully eventually get back to walking to and from work.

This morning the “feels like” temp is -46 Celsius. I have some errands to run. Will probably leave Sid at home with Taz while I do, it’s pretty cold for his little cheeks.

January marks two years since I started Bloom Planted North, although I didn’t start faithfully writing for a few months, I think it was March.

I had hoped to end off 2025 with 1000 subscribers but as of this morning I’m 23 short. Is it uncouth to discuss subscribers? Obviously, I’m not here just for that. But it is exciting, a bit.

Reading other’s posts each morning here on WP is one of the highlights of my early morning hours. I’ve all but given up on Facebook, Instagram is okay I guess, Threads…a bit campy or maybe that’s just my feed?

I refuse to download TikTok and I gave up on Twitter when it became NOT Twitter.

So you guys are my fave. The meat of my mornings. And I do read all throughout the day as well. I’m never very far.

Happy New Year to all of you! Looking forward to so much more of you in 2026. You really do help fill my cup.

My adorable boy & I…was trying to get him to say CHEESE!! definitely won’t miss the smoky summer we had, what a brutal forest fire season it was

  1. it’s really great reading you on this platform CJ. i always say that WP fills a good medium between the curated atmosphere of Instagram/Facebook and the soap-box nature of Twitter (X). i’ll be experimenting with new blogging formats this year but WP will always be the central platform for my posts. Happy 2026 to you, Clint, Sid and the rest of the great kiddos and Remy 🙂 Mike

  2. Happy New Year, it’s not too late for 23 more but they will come. Congratulations to you, I started January of 2025 and I am at a little over 400 subscribers. I agree the release of writing, I feel like I’m talking to a bunch of me’s. I enjoy your writing, my only resolution is to engage more. Well to prosperity in 2026.
