Note To Self

In the future, why don’t you NOT do any blog posts about how great your weather is, your prize-winning grapefruit tree or the fact that you don’t have many complaints these days …

… and keep in mind that the Universe has a wicked sense of humor.

*Since I have a couple of couch-bound kids today and I have nothing but time on my hands … here are a few of my New Year’s resolutions, in no particular order …
...
1.)  Stop blogging when you’re bored. 
2.)  Stop blogging about good weather. 
3.)  Stop blogging about grapefruit. 
4.)  Stop blogging when you have no complaints.
5.)  Sing louder in Church … there are worse things in life than being tone deaf.
6.)  Learn how to sew.
7.)  Cut back on Starburst Jelly Beans … no more than a bag a week, tops.
8.)  Stop obsessing over Adele.
9.)  When people call you out for not paying attention to what they’re saying, stop responding, “Oh, I’m sorry, I was just thinking about Adele.”
10.)  Find a doctor who specializes in Bunion Surgery, make an appointment, cancel that appointment … because when is it ever a good time to have someone remove part of your foot and realign the bone? I’ll tell you when. Never!
11.)  Stop thinking about Adele.
12.)  Take fewer pictures. 
13.)  Try to take few pictures.
14.)  Stop wearing your t-shirts inside out, you’re almost 35.
15.)  Sign up for a race of some sort. A 5 K? A half-marathon? Train for it … but ultimately, don’t run it.
16.)  Stop tweezing your gray hairs and just go get it colored.
17.)  Try not to snort when you laugh. 
18.)  Try harder not to snort when you laugh.
19.)  Stop buying zip-up hooded sweatshirts. You have one in every color.  You’re good.
20.)  Stop comparing your husband to Bear Grylls or Adam Richman (or Adele.)

These are just a few off the top of my gray-haired head.  If I wasn’t listening to Adele right now, I could probably think of a few more ... but I can't … I'm too busy.
