Joanna Gaines shared her simple New Year’s resolution
On Jan. 1, Gaines took to Instagram to share her New Year’s resolution and said she wanted to express “big meaningful words and deep thoughts” but instead focused on something simple her mother always tells her. The message is a great mantra for 2022.
“I’ve always been more of a ‘all work, no play‘ kinda gal,” Gaines admitted. “I take life too seriously sometimes (OK, most of the time) but life has a way of reminding me to slow down and play more. Every time I get off the phone with my mom, she ends the call with — ‘Don’t forget JoJo, have a fun!’ I had her write it down so I could always have it in her writing.”
Gaines continued, “When I was thinking of all that 2022 could be and all that I want for myself and my family, I was trying to think of big meaningful words and deep thoughts but I just kept hearing my mom’s simple words in her beautiful accent, ‘Have a fun JoJo!'”
Those words accompanied Gaines’ wishes for 2022. “So this year, my simple resolution is to: Worry less, skate more, and HAVE A FUN,” she wrote. “Let’s go 2022.”
Gaines got roller skates for Christmas and already showed off some of her moves. “I’m having an 80’s flashback!” she wrote in a Dec. 26 Instagram post. “I got a pair of skates for Christmas, and minus the goats and the cattle guard and the manure, I felt like I was back in the roller rink all over again!”
On Jan. 1, she posted another skating video, captioning it, “Rollin’ into the new year and feeling like it’s gonna be a good one! Happy New Year.”

“You should have that tattooed on yourself in her actual handwriting. How cool that would be,” one of her fans wrote.
Many of her followers had the same idea, writing, “Would be a great tattoo!,” “That would be a cool tat,” and “You need to have this tattooed in your mom’s handwriting. So special!”
