I’m in Texas right now and will ring in the New Year barbecuing with friends, drinking wine and eating black eyed peas on New Years Day ( a southern tradition my mother-in-law taught me). 

We decided to road trip from Los Angeles to Texas and it’s amazing how the open road can reset your brain. I was feeling run-down and stressed before the break; working and taking meetings up to the very last minute. It was hard to put the work down and commit to a week of relaxing but it’s been so worth it!

This trip has given me time to think about what I want to accomplish in the new year.
I love me a list and just ordered my new planner!
I’m very excited for my mom, dad, and sister to visit L.A. this January and to get started on some exciting projects I have in the pipeline.

I think 2013 is going to be a great year.

Now let’s get out there and live it!

xxoo,

AA
