I resolve to wear more scarves. They make me feel like an urban boho hipster with a splash of euro fancy lady thrown in(and not at all like a middle-ged midwesterner with poor climate control).
I will finish at least one board on pinterest. It is less a reflection of my favorite things and more a glaring example of my inability to complete a task.
I will use the phrase “Really?” less often. Conversations in our house can go on for 12 non-stop minutes of “Really?”, “Really.”, “Really?”, “Really.” and make you want to stab yourself in the eye with a yellow #2. Instead I will replace it with “Obvi.” A. This seems like something Molly Ringwald would totally say if she were still Pretty in Pink and B. Time saver. Obvi.
I will eat more sprinkles. And wear more polka dots. I will wear polka dots while eating sprinkles and dare anyone to compromise my uber chipper mood.
I will listen to more talk radio and less Adele. The false sense of esteem singing along to Adele provides you really benefits no one. Least of all you. On family Karaoke night.
I will be a better mother, friend, sister, daughter, wife(I’m already super awesome at that). I will shop less, give more, and sweep under the couch. I will use my oven for more than storing leftover pizza boxes.
2012, I got you.
