Happy 2013

Well it's been a few weeks and the wonderful season of Christmas has come and gone. I rang in this New Year with homemade chicken pot pie and classic movies accompanied by Robert Osborne. I think in fact I almost missed the stroke of midnight because I was so enthralled with Frank and Dino as they pulled off an unthinkable heist in Las Vegas. Hmm this exciting night is it a foreshadowing of my year to come? I would hope that at 22 years old I am not past the best years of my life. NO I will not stand for that!! Oh I am sorry for my outburst there my music got really loud and I felt the need to join in the loud volume. I got back to SLO on Sunday back to work Monday and am settling nicely into my old routine.Yesterday was an exciting day for me I got my haircut finally, 1 whole inch trimmed off of my head and I feel like a new person! It's the little things in life people. Well my hair girl is very sweet and talented and is the most amazing hair washer in the world, I almost fell asleep. She was asking me about my holidays and the like then halfway through the cut she stopped and asked me "Do you have any New Year resolutions?" It really made me think, wow for the first time in a long while I hadn't been waiting for midnight to start making changes in my life. Well that made me start thinking, thinking a lot and here's what it sounded like in my head. "Well I will loose 20 pounds by March, run a marathon in May, get a new job make lots of money in like a month then spend my summer travelling around Europe, become a movie star...." Then she turned the blow dryer on snapping me back to BlueBird Salon on Marsh St. I smiled at her in the mirror saying "not yet". As I walked home I really thought about it well some of my dream resolutions may seem a tiny bit out of proportion but in general I think I found my theme for the year. So all you Pretty Peach followers here it is, 2013 with be my year of "Most Improved". This year will be the year that I do everything I can to make me the best I can be, take risks, make changes and live the life I really want. So you might ask why am I a pretty private person telling all these people (or at least just my Mom Grandma and Aunt) my biggest resolution to date? Well you're all going to keep me accountable. I will need encouragement at times, praise during my triumphs and ideas when I all I can think of is laying on the couch watching an entire season of Vampire Diaries (which believe me is worth the eye candy). So I am a week late in starting but I am officially stating here and now that this will be my "Most Improved" year ever! I hope you all will follow me on this journey and share your resolutions or ideas with me. Here's to 2013 and all that it will bring for each and every one of us!
