Dysfunctional Resolutions

Happy New Year!!

I hope everyone had a blast last night ringing in this very first day of a brand new start! I love when we get to start the year over. It’s the chance for a fresh slate. New goals bring new successes and any success is always fun!

I don’t even know how to explain how I feel about the God awful year I just left behind. We started the very first day with medical issues that still haven’t gone away. I have spent most of the year in a Doctor’s office sick to my stomach because everyone seems to be walking around with their head up their ass.

I had to quit my job. The lack of extra funds has caused my nails to look like shit and my hair to turn a funky white-ish color.

I research so much sometimes I don’t go outside for days. Hell, who am I kidding…sometimes I don’t put on a bra until 3:00!

My kids are freaking out from crappy food withdraws. They got a year older. I got a year older. Basically, 2012 can kiss my tushy!

The biggest thing I learned in 2012 is that I am really more capable of learning new things than I give myself credit for. You really can teach an old dog new tricks and I proved that by the leaps and bounds we have made this year in our efforts to help Thing 3 get well. I can also attest to the truth that once someone is set in their ways it’s impossible to change them. This last year has brought back out my feisty fighting side with more force than ever before. I’ll never apologize for that side of me because that is the side that will get my daughter treated this year.

You can be sure all of my hard work from 2012 will pay off real soon. 2013 will gladly accept that this is going to be a great year or I will be forced to shove it down her throat!

My goal for 2013 is really quite simple.

Do things more often that make me feel good.

For instance : When someone deserves to be flicked off from now on you can count on me to do it. Is this the mature thing to do? Probably not. Will it feel good? Your damn right it will.

Drinking adult beverages more often. Preferably Vodka. Seriously, I don’t drink enough. Trust me, it would make feel better for a moment or two before I passed out.

Cussing under my breath whether I’m in public or private will be my best friend from now on. I have to start expressing my feelings one way or another. I will no longer hold in how I feel about someone doing something stupid in my presence or saying something stupid to me. It never feels good to bottle things up. I’m estimating I should feel like a brand new woman by February.

I’m sure you were all expecting me to say I was going to exercise more, eat healthier, save the world one orphan at a time. This year I’m much more into being a realist. Flipping people the bird, drinking, and cussing under my breath will keep me plenty busy. I don’t want to take on more than I can handle. That would make me feel icky and icky is not one of the pre-approved feelings for 2013!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Raise your glass with me for my first Vodka on the rocks! Here’s to kicking 2013 right in the ass!

    Okay…Drinking, cussing, and flipping people off—these are resolutions I can get behind (and maybe have a chance of actually doing!!)
    Seriously though, getting your feelings out is the way to go! YOU GO FOR IT!
    Hope 2013 brings wonderful things for you and your family, Nikki.
    Happy New Year!! (2012 can suck it!)

    Looks like you are joining my drinking and cursing team. My youngest is always horrified at my truck driver mouth, but it makes me feel better so I swear, curse and yell on a daily basis. Of course I love to drink wine , but I think vodka is less fattening so it sounds like a good choice.
