resolutions

{hello blog world. this is my first post ever. quite exciting}

i know it’s january 6th (already?!) and i’m late to the game in posting my resolutions. but as i didn’t have a blog before now, kinda hard to share, huh. anyway, without further ado:

1. start a blog – and here we are. guess i can cross this one off the list.

2. actually do the blog – learn what in the sam hell i’m doing with this wordpress account and actually post (specific goal: once a week). and try to make things as pretty as possible.

3. work out/lose weight – for like the 5th year in a row. fail every year. not this year my friends, not this year. (i choose to ignore the fact that somehow in the last week i’ve already gained weight, despite actually going to the gym. wtf?)

working out includes but is not limited to: going to the gym, at-home exercise videos (maybe i need to try out that p90x thingy?), walking and just dance 2 on the wii. ( specific goal:  three times per week)

4. spend wisely/save money – i must think about a purchase before i buy.  it must be a necessity (shampoo,  dog food, chocolate, etc) or something that i will regret buying. just because it’s on sale, doesn’t mean i should buy it. but dammit, stores need to stop having these crazy sales because they’re killing me.

note: i fully accept that i will buy things that do not meet the two parameters above, but i will do my best.

and that’s all. for now. i wish myself the best of luck. self, go forth and prosper.

and because no one likes a post without a picture, here is one.

quite random, but this is one i just finished editing and it was handy. this is a fabulous chandelier hanging from a tree at a vineyard in napa i visited last spring. love the rustic glamorous look.
