A Year Off - Many Unplans!


Hello – 2024 is almost over and I am “unplanning” so many areas in my life before I open up the next chapter. My next chapter is “2025” and I am ready. I am beyond ready. So...let me define what “unplanning” is... “Unplanning” is letting go of things that no longer serve you. It is also the letting go of people, apps, services, and anything else that doesn’t serve you. I have already told you I am stepping away from social media in 2025 but also from being socially active in real life.


So...here is what I have been unplanning for 2025:

* I just redecorated my hallway walls and hung my 2025 Vision Boards – two boards with my goals, inspirations, and views for the next chapter/new year.

* I removed ALL social media apps from my cell phone.


* I am about to remove ALL social media apps from my tablets and only keeping apps that are positive and adding to my life.


* I also going to remove social media apps from my laptop but I need to keep them until December 31st.

* During the month of November and so far in this month, I have not attended any social events. I have been declining events left and right and I feel GREAT. I have been focusing my time on goal-making, cutting expenses, and prepping my home for 2025.

* I ordered my last meal from DoorDash this week and then I deleted my DoorDash account. I was shaking during this process but I had to delete this account/app.

* On the Whole 30 Life front, I am cooking more at home, meal-prepping weekly, and freezer-prepping veggies for later meals. I need a chest freezer but I am making it work with my fridge’s freezer.


* I am going back to drinking hot teas and consuming less coffee. I don’t want any stomach issues and tea is a lot less harsh on my stomach.


* I am still trying to adjust to living on a budget. I did OK in November – I am proud of myself but I still need to do better in December and in 2025. I must admit it – it is hard to stick to a budget. This has to be the hardest goal I have ever set.


* My last Life In ‘Cruces will go live on December 31st. After that, it is all about ME bettering myself and redesigning the blog, the YouTube channel, and other mediums for the relaunch in 2026. I am already creating new logos for my blog and other mediums.


* The only project I am working on is my eBay store – Life In ‘Cruces Vintage Store. Please support my store and buy some stuff. 



Well...I am off to meal prep and do ME!!



Crushing and Loving Life!!
