I resolve to…
- Find a place to shove all the unused Christmas wrapping paper and trimmings so that I don’t have to stare at it at the end of the bed every night before I go to bed.
- Watch every single episode of Jon & Kate Plus 8 in order to remind me that, yes, it could be worse and that, yes, it’s OK to plug my ears and say, “La, la, la!” during those oh-so-trying moments.
- Remember that even though I’m a ma-ma, there’s no reason to let my eyebrows grow into a single forest in the shape of a boomerang.
Ah…come on, now…do you really think I’d resolve to do such silly things? First, the wrapping paper will just get shoved into a closet (as long as it can fit). That’s not hard…hopefully.
Jon and Kate? Well, it is nice to see that other people have normal-ish lives, but I really don’t care if I’m an oddball for plugging my ears and singing during tantrums. If you say you’ve never done anything like that, I’d just believe you’re a liar.
Oh, and the eyebrows? Come on. I love waxing those things and get it done with every haircut. Here, I am a freak, but there are very few things I enjoy as much as freshly waxed brows. Ahhh.
Tomorrow…the real resolutions.

I am so with you on the brows. It’s like an instant face lift and pick-me-up.
