Sticking With What Works

Thumbs Up Tavern

Today’s Monday Listicles ask us to post 10 things we have no intention of changing in 2013. So here are some areas in which I plan to maintain status quo:

1) Hair color: This is not the year I let my gray grow in, no matter what you think my roots are telling you right now.

2) Starbucks: I still love my vanilla lattes with skim milk, and they still make an excellent treat.

3) Laundry: I’m going to keep air-drying as much of our clothing as possible.

4) TV: I’ll still have more shows in the DVR than I can possibly watch.

5) Slow cooker: This will still be a mainstay of my cooking.

6) Mobile tech: I’ll still rely on it, probably more than I should.

7) Ice cream: I eat it pretty much every night. It makes the day end on a happy note.

8) Blogging: I want to be open while continuing to write things that Baguette won’t mind reading later.

9) Style: I will probably continue to eschew patterns for the most part.

10) Family: They’ll continue to be the most important thing in the world to me.

  1. I’m at the “do I color my hair or just let the greys march in” stage. I’ve been unconventional thus far in my existence – why buck the system with fighting nature. I think I’ll end up with one of those grey wisps right at my widows peak that is the only thing that turns grey for another 20 years. Add to that the fact that my hair is to the middle of my back and I’m getting lazy and just braid it all the time… yeah. I’ll be one of those women. 😉

    1. I don’t think there’s a bad choice here. I like the idea of going gray, I’m just not ready for the actuality of it.

  2. Love this concept. I’m often so focused on the things I want to change that I don’t pay enough attention to the things that are working. Gets me thinking!

    1. I might change some of these things in an ideal world, but if they aren’t priorities, I’m not going to act like they are. If the worst things about me are that I have a kind of boring wardrobe and I’m really behind on TV, well, that’s okay.
