Maple Leaf Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Good riddance to 2021, many people will say. But how do you feel about what lies ahead in 2022 ? Your job? Your family life? Your finances? The legendary HMFC? Are you feeling optimistic? I am, about everything. Happy New Year to Hearts supporters everywhere.

Locky Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 From a personal perspective I don't think 2022 can get much worse than 2021.

Lone Striker Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 This getting older malarkey has tipped my compass away from "Yay-another year" .... and towards "Yikes-can it get any worse". Too many seriously bad things happening across the world nowadays - Covid was just the latest. Folk losing their homes & livelihood through floods/droughts/storms, Russia & China increasingly belligerent, drastic decline in numbers of species & habitats in nature, world population going through the roof, our own healthcare becoming more difficult to access, the world drowning in plastic, chemicals in the atmosphere....... blah, blah. blah Mind you, Hearts winning the SC and/or league in the next couple of years would get that compass swinging back to Yay again.

JudyJudyJudy Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I think years are just numbers on a calendar really. I try not to let time dictate my life. Ill continue as I am which has did me well . I never look back with melancholy or regret about the last year like some do on Hogmanay. Jan 1st is just another day really. Never do new years resolutions either. Just surround myself with the people I love and care about and do things I like doing . So its just carry on as I was.

I am, about everything. Job - Recently returned to the rank and file of the unemployed and enjoying a hard-earned, but hopefully short-term, hiatus. Family - Definitely optimistic. My wife and three small bairns are definitely the highlight of a rather rank couple of years. Finances - Still a million quid shy of being a millionaire. Could still be a great deal worse however. HMFC - I have been perpetually optimistic since we alighted from the tit of the Lithuanian dictator. Overall? Aside from, in my opinion, the authoritarian and illiberal governance of the SNP, which seeks to constrict our freedom to act, speak and think freely, I am feeling very optimistic about, and looking forward to, 2022 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone above alluded to, the antidote to all that stuff is to resolve to do more of the things that give you satisfaction and fewer of the ones which don't. Also, just try something new or doing something differently. We probably all get most satisfaction from spending time in the company of good friends - and just hope for the best !!.

1971fozzy Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Hoping it will be obviously. 2020 and 2021 have been horrible in the main. dying to go on a holiday abroad, getting the trips to see us in Europe 👍 would be fantastic. Thankfully during this shitshow I’ve been working thank god which has kept me sane. Struggled like most mentally so hoping we can all get back to normal.

Салатные палочки Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I made a list before Christmas of things I want to get done in 2022. Whether I can do them all is another thing but the main things I want to do is learn more about autism and how we can support and care for my youngest daughter. Also to try and learn Makaton as she is non-verbal and we can hopefully communicate with her in a more in-depth way with that. I very rarely drink these days due to her sleeping pattern. It's really not worth having a few drinks and then she's up during the night for four hours so we tend to lay off it. So I'm actually aiming for a year off it. I'm also aiming to lose three stone through eating better and doing more exercise. I lost a good few lbs before Christmas but unsurprisingly I've gained it again over the last couple of weeks. So mixed feelings on 2022. We know it's going to be hard at times throughout the year but I'm aiming to do everything I can to make it better for us.

Congratulations. I would recommend getting away on a flight with a little one before they start to get mobile. Best thing we did was go on holiday to Bali when my boy was 5 months old. We went to majorca 4 months later and it was definitely more difficult bcoz he wanted to move and wriggle etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
