1. Watch back to back Twilight movies with True Believers
2. Outstanding underwear at all times
3. Bare skin/bare feet as much as possible
4. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO ANY MORE CAMERA APPS
5. Run less like I am being chased by a frenzied knife wielding lunatic. Slow down, smell those damn daisies
6. Write more shit here. Even if it's shit. Just. Write. It.
7. Go to more 3D movies with the French but spend less time laughing at him in his 3D goggles.
8. Print some of my kazillion photos
9. Hold my children's hands while they still let me.
10. Lie like a starfish on sand and listen to the beat of my heart. Herbal, but a resolution nonetheless.
11. Talk to more internet types. You people are awesome. Why have I never thought of making this a two-way conversation?
12. Find out how those promo cars get onto the upper level of shopping centres.
13. Read every night with my children.
14. Get over it.
15. DO NOT have a cigarette when the Kafkaesque bureacracy of work is driving me up the wall.
16. No laughing like a hyena in the hallways at work. Unsettling for public servants.
17. Find someone at work who will have an argument with me in my lunchbreak. I don't care what it's about Transcendental Meditation, Team Edward vs Team Jacob, the back catalogue of Johnny Cash. Anything.
18. Dance like there's no one looking.
19. Not cry when the girls are taking music lessons.
20. Love the people I love harder, stronger, better.
Happy New Year to you. xxxxx






new year's greetings from Canada ( where most of the intelligent/nature loving people are so pissed off with our prime minister for pulling out of Kyoto)
You photographs are wonderful and your words a delight.

A fantastic list, I wish it was mine...and even tho I thought I was so over ny's resolutions, it's inspired me to write a list like this. Plus I want to tell you how much I love your new-ish banner photo. Each time I go to your blog, I find myself reflecting on it at length: those stripes are amazing. What a find! And they're perfect foils for your red Rummage and family. Happy new year.
