It is January the fourth.
I set out a bunch of resolutions and have not yet followed one of them.
I have, however,
– eaten all the Christmas goodies
– eaten a large bag of Cheetohs
– stayed up too late reading trashy Tumblr blogs
– freaked out about my writing projects
– yelled at my kids
– loved my kids
– played with my kids
– freaked out that grad school starts on Monday. Starts. On. Monday.
– gotten dressed around 1 p.m. each day
– taken at least one shower
– spent too much money
– not made enough money
– felt like I’ve been cleaning my house all day everyday
– not cleaned my house nearly enough
– made several business calls to people who were not there because they take a holiday
– told the bank teller that I wanted to order checks then left before actually ordering the checks because I’ve lost my mind.
– made peppermint cotton candy from a candy cane.
– freaked out about how little I’ve been able to accomplish thus far in the year
– freaked out some more
Not a good start. So I’m calling a redo.
Starts on Monday (because that’s how I roll.) 2013 will start on January 7th. Bam. Done.
Now I’ve got to go. I’ve got more freaking out to do.
I got sidetracked when I read “peppermint cotton candy”. I need a recipe!!!!
I wish I was cool enough to have an artsy little recipe for this, but really, I just bought the kids a cotton candy maker for Christmas, and it is MAGICAL. You put ANY hard candy in it, and it spins cotton candy. Game changer, for real.
That sounds fun!
Don’t worry if you need another redo, you can always go by the Chinese calendar. Their new year is in February.
