I’ve actually had an Apple Watch for quite a while now. I got one not too long after they first came out, after all the hype had died down a bit. That was in 2015. It’s very handy to have both for notifications, small tasks, and health tracking. It replaced the Misfit that I had been using. Apple has since then come out with 3 different upgrades in hardware. The one I had was a Series 1, and since then there has been Series 2, 3, and 4. The Series 4 just came out last September. The Series 1 that I had got the job done, but was slow and frustrating to use at times. And then I got a crack in the side of it somehow. But it still worked, and I kept using it.

In my return to blogging over the last few days (or actually weeks, since that’s when I was working on the site redesign), I came across a draft of a blog post that I had started, apparently in September of 2016. I remember working on this post and never posting it, and I can’t believe it has been that long since I started it. While my thoughts have changed a bit, I still decided it was worth it to revisit and post my current thoughts on the subject matter. So, here is the draft of the post I had from back in 2016:

Happy 2019! Alright, here we go… in an effort to blog more this year, let’s start with this. SO many people make New Year’s resolutions to be healthier in the coming year. There’s always talk of how active gyms are at the beginning of the year, then it gradually starts to die down when everyone breaks their resolutions and goes back to their old habits. So, I actually didn’t really set any official New Year’s resolutions this year. I have a few goals, but they are more or less things that have been goals for a while. I do have a lot of hope for what’s to come this year, including in obtaining those goals. But I don’t think I’d consider them resolutions, especially with the connotations that come with that. Resolutions always seem to inevitably get broken!
