Some people say "Happy New Year" on January 1st. Some people say it 'till February. But some people have no rules when it comes to wishing people Happy New Year.
Each year, we write lists, we make promises and we swear we are going to do our best to try all the things we said we were going to try last year. After one week (or in my case, one day), most of my resolutions are broken and the excuse-making begins. I'm putting an end to this cycle.

Toward the end of the last year, which I will nostalgically refer to as 2012, I was humming along. But then, like some backcountry alpine skier who snags an errant boulder, I flipped. Now I'm filing my nails, reordering the cupboards, and walking in circles. Literally.
