Happy New Year! It’s 2010, and you know what? My resolutions are the same I’ve been making for the past five years. Ugh! So I want to change that up a little. I still want to lose weight and finally get my studio organized, but I want to think bigger than that. I had such a great time before Christmas, picking out gifts for my loved ones, and this year I want to give more than I take. I want to be kinder and more patient. I want to create more art, actually as much as possible. I want to let aggravations roll off my back. I want a more peaceful life.
So how’s that for New Year’s Resolutions? A tall order, for sure, but they all go hand in hand. Hopefully they will even help me get through this winter. Today I have errands to run and I just don’t even want to go outside into the cold. I have, however, armed myself with a secret weapon: Prada parfum. I know I have writen about it before, but wearing it is like adding another sweater. It is instant warmth. It’s like magic! To be fair, it is a heavy, dense scent, but so perfect for these cold days and nights. It has rubbed off onto my armwarmers and I keep sniffing them because they smell so good. It still astounds me that I am so fond of a perfume that is so heavy on the patchouli…but mine is not to wonder why. Soon I will be out there in the world that is too big, just to buy some toothpaste and Listerine…I don’t want to go. I just hope this winter gets by us quickly. I will stay bundled up with a good book as much as possible, and of course under the veil of my winter perfume.
To kick off the New year, this is No Surprises, by Radiohead.
