the last of the winter grey and the beginnings of spring brought some challenges and an equal number of successes. following are some reflections on my 2013 resolutions.
- wear skirts & dresses more often
yes! and no. i have had a few occasions to wear a skirt that i have and absolutely love but it's kind of formal. like, job interview and funeral formal. i intend to invest in some casual skirts and dresses more appropriate for everyday wear.
also, note to self: invest in shoes appropriate for wear with something other than denim.

- keep regular haircut schedules
yes! and no. i am pleased to report that i have found a stylist that i am very comfortable with so that's something. unfortunately haircuts are expensive, yo. so good thing i look cute in hats.
- tweet? as in, join twitter?
no. i really don't feel i'd use it enough to bother. meh.
- make proper pots of tea instead of just pouring hot water over a tea bag in a mug and then saving that tea bag in a shot glass on the stove to use for the next cup
- or, at least choose a more attractive container for the used tea bag to rest in
fail on both counts. old habits die hard.
- paint the washroom
yes!!!! we finally got the rental company to have a contractor come in and take care of our mold issue and freshly paint the new ceiling and walls. he did a crap job though, so i'll now have to touch up the tile line and scrape the "mistakes" off the tile but IT'S PAINTED!!!!! *cabbage patching in my pajamas*
- get a fish
not yet.
- host more parties
i hosted my first ever girl's night in this apartment and i am pretty sure it went well. much hummus was consumed. i am looking forward to hosting upcoming dinner parties.
- fix the laptop to enable skype to chat with lu
not yet. it's so expensive. i think i am probably just going to let this one tell me it is ready to go to computer heaven and then invest in a new one. sorry, girl.
- visit my grandmother more
i am a horrible person.
- invest in new tupperware, the old ones are manky
this is probably the easiest one and i haven't done it yet. what is wrong with me?!?!
THIS SPRING I RESOLVE TO...
- spend more time with family & friends
- get outside more
- continue to work with my psychologist on my anxiety and DO MY HOMEWORK
- accept invitations
- increase my income
did you make resolutions? how are you making out?
