New Year's Update

Hello!  My sporadic writing is still.... sporadic :P

I have actually started a Tumblr account that you can find here.  Tumblr is great; it's kinda' like a blogger's Twitter.  You re-post stuff from your followers and can post text, pictures, quotes, etc.  I think I can also hook my different blogs and such together through this site, so that's nice!  

I'm trying to write a bit more and have found that Tumblr's format makes it a bit easier, but perhaps I'll try to still use this blog for long posts and the Tumblr one for shorter ones...

So, how am I doing on my New Year's resolution?

House
*Paint Master bedroom - nope
*Paint Guest bedroom - nope
*Clean out closets - nope
*Organize basement - nope
(I should have put in organize main level- I did that!!  And a REALLY thorough cleaning!)
Clothes
*Get rid of clothes that don't fit/don't wear/old and worn - nope
*Buy essentials - nope
I really would like to develop a 'style'- right now it's so scattered.  I would like to look put together and invest in a few really nice pieces instead of a bunch of crap.
(working on the 'style' thing; Tumblr is great for collecting images and thoughts! :))
Me
*Regularly trim hair - hmmmmmm; really need to make an apt
*Style hair in morning (ha!) - actually have started doing this fairly regular!
*Treat skin right - yep; amazing, huh?  Well, I'm using lotion better- I need to wash my face at night
*Cut down on sweets (1 a day?) - ehhhhhhh
*Read at least 1/2 hour a day - not every day, but working on it
*Study Arabic at least 1/2 hour a day - I swear, I'll start next week! :P

New Style

Happy New Years!

Being the new year, I feel a bit like getting things organized.  It's the start of the year; the start of the semester; the start of the decade; the start of the month- a great time!

So, here is a bit of what I'm thinking of:

House
*Paint Master bedroom
*Paint Guest bedroom
*Clean out closets
*Organize basement

Clothes
*Get rid of clothes that don't fit/don't wear/old and worn
*Buy essentials
I really would like to develop a 'style'- right now it's so scattered.  I would like to look put together and invest in a few really nice pieces instead of a bunch of crap.

Me
*Regularly trim hair
*Style hair in morning (ha!)
*Treat skin right
*Cut down on sweets (1 a day?)
*Read at least 1/2 hour a day
*Study Arabic at least 1/2 hour a day

Wish me luck!
