So 2016 the year that was, a very eventful year if your part of the celebrity world, people sadly passing on. As one friend referred to it 2016: The year of the Deadening!
But my year, it was an interesting year, a year of not much change, a variety of social events and dates. Its left me feeling glad to see the back of 2016.
So I continued to work and I'm still in the same job. Which is now my longest job in Israel, which I consider quite an accomplishment, because as people know back when I first came here, I did bounce from job to job unfortunately. I've seen people move on from the office though and while I wish them luck and happy they have moved on to new things, I do miss some of them. Apparently they can't take me with them LOL.
Socially its been an interesting year, I've been out and about, seeing friends and having fun. Some regrets, as I could have gotten out more than I did, but this year I hope for more opportunities. I've dated over the last year and though they never worked out, I think I've learnt something from them... at least I hope I did.
Well my parents and sister visited in March over Purim time and that was cool, and then my parents again came to visit in September and its nice to have seen them. They're currently on a cruise and I think they are somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, but I'm not sure... its nice to be retired and able to get away.
Onto 2017, I could say I have many hopes, aspirations etc for the year. One I suppose is to remain healthy, I've been successful in losing weight, so far 6 kg in just under a year and 7 centimeters around the waist. I want to continue that and lose a few more kilos, ideally before my birthday in August, I'd love to have lost another 5 kg, but we will see, as I said in a Facebook post, its a marathon and not a sprint and lots of constant work.
Otherwise I would hope this year brings me more opportunities both socially and work wise, but above all else I hope its a good year for me, for my family and for my friends.
Oh and I plan to blog a lot more often, I'm thinking of changing this to a website, maybe have people guest blog if they want. Let me know what you think, anyway. I'm off to relax and hope Hull City can beat Swansea to progress in the FA Cup.
