Dear Last Little Lingering Bits of Christmas,

Thank you for keeping the season alive until almost February. I was sad to finally put away all the decorations but it was nice to keep the feeling of Christmas around for longer than necessary. Next up, my birthday and I am more than happy to get in the spirit of that! 

Love,
Cristen

Dear The Lodge,

Thank you for providing a great place to celebrate a dear friend's birthday, run into an old friend, and give another friend's budding romance a chance to bloom. We had many drinks, laughs and good times all thanks to you.

Love,

Dear New Gatsby Movie,

Thank you for inspiring designers to make twenties style clothes right now. I am so in love with the styles from the twenties and now they are easily at my fingertips. Also, I can't wait to see you!

Dear Katy Perry,

Thank you for being awesome. I watched your movie tonight and was totally inspired. I already loved you but now I have fifty times more respect for you as well. Thank you for being a strong and courageous woman and role model. You set an awesome example for people to be who they are and never let things take away their sparkle.

Love,
Cristen

Dear Lady Balls,

Thank you for existing. I remember the days when I was a total doormat and it was awful. I know I still have my moments of being too convenient and put others before myself in a compromising way but thankfully I have you to give me a nudge of courage to say no when I need to. You give me just the right amount of bitchiness to get shit done while still being considerate. 

Love,
Cristen
