This week my Word of the Week is: New! #WotW

This week my Word of the Week is:

New

It has to be new, with it being a new year. I hope you have all had a good start to 2025. We've had a good week. I am still lost with what day it is. Wednesday felt like a Monday, Thursday felt like a Friday and yesterday did actually feel like a Friday.

We had an amazing new years eve! We did something new for us and went out and stayed out until gone 1am. We had such a great evening though. We had a meal, then danced and sung our way into 2025. There were no hangovers the next morning, I was more tired than anything!

There has been no new year resolutions, I started my changes before the new year. I have decided to use more skincare and pamper myself a bit more which hasn't been a challenge at all since I got a load of skincare products, bath stuff, face masks and things like that for Christmas. My face is feeling better for it already and I've only been using the lotions and potions for just over a week!

A new year see's new programmes on the TV and one which is new to me is The Traitors! I have heard people talking about it in the past so made a point of watching it on New Years Day, I know it's one of those that you have to watch each evening to keep up with what is going on and I am hooked!! 

I have also been watching a lot of Wrestling. It has all moved onto Netflix which is going to save me a fortune in the long run. They added all their past pay per views and I have been working my way through all the Wrestlemania's (their big show of the year). The new episodes of their weekly shows start next week which I am so excited about.

Ellie decided, just after Christmas that she would start watching all the Marvel movies in chronological order. It is all new to her, she knows bits from hearing me talk about them but she is learning lots. hehehe She is just starting Iron Man 3 as I write this.

I have got my new snuddie on today, the one Becky got me for Christmas and it is needed! It's so cold and is set to get colder. I did laugh at the weather warning, don't go out early in the morning or on an evening because of the ice. Becky would love not to but she has to go to work on an evening and come home early on a morning. Snow and ice doesn't stop people needing care in residential homes. I hope everyone of you stays safe and well in this awful weather! 

I don't think there is any more newness in my life. We are just sticking with what we know and what we're comfortable with creeping into 2025. I think if I was to chose a word of the year I want it to be "plodding". I don't want an amazing year, I just want a steady, average, unexciting year but I am wishing you all the best for 2025!

I am of course linking up with Anne who blogs at Raisie Bay for her Word of the Week linky!

  1. Happy New Year Kim! We have the same word this week, there wasn't anything else it could be. Your evening out sounds like fun, I just about made it to midnight. Traitors is brilliant although I much preferred series 1 and 2 to this one so far. Wishing you a steady and average 2025.

  3. I love plodding - it reminds me of P. C. Plod from Enid Blyton and that brings back all sorts of lovely memories of childhood. I need to get into a lotions and potions routine, I tend to be a bit lazy with skincare and wear little makeup these days. Time to get my glam on!

  5. I always think those weather warnings are a bit weird too; I guess they mean "if you don't have to" but so many people do have to! I'm curled up in front of our fireplace today to stay warm since it's so cold and raw out today.

  6. Happy New Year! You'll love the Traitors, it's very addictive. We even bought the board game! I'm watching so much at the moment I don't think I have time for housework or cooking, lol.

  7. Happy new year Kim! Glad you had a good new year’s eve. Pampering yourself more sounds like a lovely plan for the new year. We’ve been watching the Traitors as well. Hope Ellie is enjoying the Marvel movies. I like the idea of a steady, unexciting year too. #WotW

  8. Oh wow, watching all the Marvel movies in chronological order is going to take a while! That's so fun, though! Happy New Year to you!
