January 2013


Already?!?

Why, it's practically Christmas!  

Now don't pfft pfft me...you'll hear that from me 11 more times until you KNOW it's Christmas!  

Do people still make new year's resolutions?  Or is this a forgotten tradition?  Afterall, hardly anyone actually accomplishes any life-changing resolution. This is a reckless, panicked, spur-of-the-moment act which is the result of Christmas binges and that is your belly hanging out from the top of your low-rise jeans like mine now.  

Well, forgotten or not, I have a bunch of  new year's resolutions for 2013!  You betcha!  They are as follows:

1.  I'll lose the last 5 stubborn pounds that I need to lose.  After I lose the 10 that I gained in the past two weeks.

2.  I'll quit smoking.  After I finish the last 8 packs still left in my supply.  E-cig is the way to go!

3.  I'll grow my hair.  My Da Rock look is too aging lesbian.

4.  I'll be frugal.  No more spending because I can.

5.  I'll not buy shoes with 5-inch heels anymore.  4-inch heels will do.

6.  I'll not buy office clothes this year.  80 dresses, 70 tops and 30 bottoms should last me the year.

7.  I'll not eat Lapid's chicharon anymore.  The Zambales chicharon is better!  

8.  I'll not yell at anyone.  I'll email!!!  Memos left and right!

9.  I'll smile more often.  I'll have to have my teeth cleaned monthly.

10.  I'll see my friends more often.  Stalk them on Facebook!

11.  I'll sleep longer.  I'm aiming for 5 hours every night.  I'll pop sleeping aid.  Tessa, send me some Up and Up please!

12.  I'll read more.  Gotta catch up on all the unread Time and Readers' Digest issues.

13.  I'll write better.  I'll write more meaningfully or meaner.  No mercy!

14.  I'll go to Church.  That's where all the good guys are.

15.  I'll learn how to cook.  This is the surest way for everyone to eat less.

If Cukay reads this, she'll lend me cookbooks. If Kayla reads this she'll be ROTFL!  

On a serious note, I am thankful to all the people who helped me get by in the past year.  I couldn't believe the support and blessings that were given me and many a time I wondered what I did in my past life to deserve it.  I have no words to thank them enough.  All I can do is hope and pray that they have even better years ahead. 

Thanks to my darling, Thor, who saves me everyday.  Yep, you. ;p

My fabulous daughter, Kayla.  Thanks for all the fun, the patience, the good grades and the education.  You teach me something worthwhile occasionally.

2012 was a good year.  

2013 will be fantastic!

Believe me.
