And a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Again I have to tell myself I haven't abandoned this blog. I've neglected it pretty horribly, but I haven't abandoned it. I do think about it a lot. This happens to be the blog where I talk the most about my life. Life's been busy. Another year has past and there's always the opportunity to develop good habits under the guise of a New Years Resolution. I find that it's good to have more than one resolution because then the odds of you keeping at least a few of them become higher. For example:

(from last year)

1. I refuse to buy pens this year.
2. I will not buy anymore t-shirts.
3. I will not buy a purse this year unless it is a staple piece.
4. I will not go out and buy new underwear just because I've put off doing my laundry for
months.

- I was definitely able to keep #1 and #4, I think I did end up breaking #2 but I don't remember when. Oddly enough, I might not have broken #3 because it's really hard to find a good bag out there. I'm just going to say I did break that resolution even though I'm not sure.


I'd been getting into tote bags a little bit and this bag kept looking at me. It has eyes, you know. After seeing this bag constantly at Target this past summer, I picked it up and it turned out to be my most overused bag. I suppose using purses requires training, totes are a good gateway into purse usage. I suppose my cat bag can be considered a staple.

Overall, I didn't do to shabby this year.

Resolutions for 2011:

1. I will not buy ANY new clothes.
- I have a feeling a pair of hot fuchsia Barbie heels are going to cross my path many times this year.
- Any clothes I get rid of will be either donated to Goodwill or sold on eBay

2. I will blog once a week.

3. I will make the time to dance at least twice a week.

4. I will finish a project each quarter (if not even more often than that)

5. I will try to make more sensible make up choices.

I know that the last one is a bit subjective, but...

seriously...who knows the next time one of my sisters is going to get married? I need to redeem myself for the rainbow eyes at the wedding. While I liked the job I did, I think it looks cool, for a wedding? I must've been feeling crazy that day...truthfully, I was. There was no worse time to really get into wacky colored make up than the wedding. Ugh.

So there we go, enough resolutions to break and enough to keep.
