Hoods up, Glocks out

That's my man-handling motto for 2011 : Hoods up, Glocks out.

2010 rocked my world hard and instead of begging the new year to be gentle with me, I've decided to be proactive. I'm gonna kick some ass and take some names!

So here's my ballsy new year's resolutions list in no particular order:

1. Get out of debt

2. Spend more QT with my favorite people

3. Purge! Rid my life of excess things and time robbers

4. Allow myself more grace. I am still growing up after all

5. Make time to pursue my art

6. Spend more time in the kitchen trying new recipes

5. {in a slightly uncertain, sheepish voice} get pregnant?

That last one's 'the doozy' for me since becoming a mom was the most difficult part of 2010. But the hard days are behind me and the bad memories have faded. I am so in love with my son and I can totally see the shiny in this whole mom deal. So, we'll see!?

Cheers friends! I hope you too have made some kickin' resolutions for yourself.

2011 HOLLA.

new years ressies

I am not much of a new years resolution person, mainly because I don't like not doing what I say I want/plan/hope to accomplish.

BUT. If I did have a list, it would look something like this:

Learn how to be a mom.

Forgive myself as I make mistakes as I learn how to be a mom.

Not have so much disdain for Nicholas Cage, his hairline and his movies.

Learn to love my husband more/better through his love languages.

Love doing the dishes. [cringe]

Enjoy every moment with my baby. [even the poopy, crying, late sleepless nights]

Not have so much disdain for football.

I have many more real resolutions and even more sarcastic and fake ones, but I'll keep this list short and sweet.

What resolutions did you make that you'll actually keep?
