I also learned that if you have so much vodka in your freezer, you can't fit any food into it, you should probably re-think your priorities... or drink more vodka so your freezer never gets that crammed.

And most importantly - I was able to say, almost every day - I am happy.

Happy New Year, Everyone. Every New Year's Day, people make resolutions to change what they believe of themselves to be negative. Most people end up breaking their resolutions and feeling like failures. This year, if you must have one resolution, let it be this: Just be yourself.

"We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called 'Opportunity' and its first chapter is New Year’s Day." ~ Edith Lovejoy Pierce
