A little tired but otherwise good. 🙂
To take better care of myself. Can’t say I’ve been eating well or working out enough lately, so it’s time to get back on track.
Ugh! Frizz central. My bangs have been out of control. I’ve been resorting to a pinned-back look, pushing most of it into a ponytail. Not my cutest hair, I must say.
After Christmas, it was the huge (20′) waves I saw at Pipeline on the North Shore of Oahu. The ocean was churning and moving up a storm! — a stark reminder that I’m not the one in charge. I’ll stick to surfing the tiny three-to-four footers at Canoes (a patch of beach in Waikiki), thank you very much.
Nothing at the moment (I just washed my face again). Getting ready to apply Time Balm concealer to my dark circles.
I’m not sure yet. Probably something mellow, though, like dinner and a walk along the water in Sausalito.
NARS Greek Holiday. I brought six different colors to Hawaii, but it’s been the only one I’ve worn.
Try to have some fun!
An old pair of Lucky jeans (they’re my most comfortable pair) and a blue striped tank top.
Get home safely on Tuesday, have fun at my mom’s birthday dinner (happy early birthday, mumsy!) and make the most of the last few days of 2009.
Heya, ladies! Happy Monday afternoon. 😀 I know it’s later in the day than usual for the Monday Poll, especially for you East Coasters, but drop me a line when you can. You know the drill. Just copy the empty list, and paste it with your answers in the comments.

1. Mood:
Comfy and cozy, now that I’m home. It was freezing and windy outside today, so now I’m snuggling up in my warmest fleece clothes, sipping tea and wearing fuzzy socks. Oh, the glamorous life I lead :).
2. A New Year’s Resolution?
To try and be less intense and less of a perfectionist; to let all the people in my life know how much I appreciate them; and to count my many blessings regularly and remind myself how fortunate I am .
3. Today’s hair?
Pulled back in a tight French twist (there was that wind) . . .
4. Highlight of your weekend?
Having my neighbor’s 4 year old daughter ask me if Santa came to Jewish people like me, and then gently ask me if my feelings were hurt because he didn’t. Then she suggested I leave him some of the muffins I’d just made for her, and he might change his mind. Seriously, it was freaking adorable.
