Anyone who matters {no offence} has a theme, like meaning or passion or yearn or radiate or AHA!, usually one or two touchiefeelie words that don't make sense on they're own but that you say alot, sinse resolutions are good but you still need something catchier and themes make it easier to seem super deep and meaningful which are two of my strengths. Any idizz??
Can't decide, but right now I'm thinking mine will prolly be glam or eltse minimize.
How about "Glory," cause you're so awesome and all and people should glorify you?
ReplyDeleteNow that you mention it, themes DO make people seem deep!
ReplyDeleteHow about something that sounds churchy like JOURNEY or CULTIVATE?
So what happens if I don't have a theme OR resolutions? Well, I guess I'll save on vinyl. Sweet.
ReplyDeleteShabby Glam

Whatever it is it should really express how thankful you are that your life is so much better than other peoplez. Like the lady in my ward who bore her testimony of visiting teaching and said she loved it because she was able to help so many people and seeing how sad their lives were made her appreciate how great hers was. Just such a great example of how to gratitudify.
I'd go with "ME!"
ReplyDeleteMine is AHA! haha!
ReplyDeleteWhat about Glam Candor?
ReplyDeleteGlaminimize?
ReplyDeleteIn light of your recent calling with your nemesis, I would recommend "Magnify." I like "Glam" too.
ReplyDeleteFor me, the resolution this year is "Discover Me."
How about combine those to make glaminimize? Themes are way more adoorable when they are a word you made up yourself. You could cut out vinyl letters that say "glam", "minimize", and "glaminimize" and put them everywhere.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not minimize. For you, unattainable without removing your post-baby breast implants and anyway, it sounds unAmerican. Glam is ok but kind of makes you sound like Glamma who is sweet but ew. I think maybe the following
ReplyDeleteShine -- excuse for sparkles, self-aggrandizement, makeup, classes in whatever you think you're best at etc.
Glow -- similar to previous
Sparkle -- likewise, but with more lip gloss
Euphoria -- like joy, but more so and sets an impossible standard for you're friends to copy.
Avoid the following: Live, laugh, love, family -- too obvious and lame. If a pre-made vinyl sign exists, it is not for you. You should have to make your own super original sign.
"but the batterys on the twins dvd players are dead..."
ReplyDeleteI love you.
I lurve that your two idizz for themes somewhat contradict each other.
ReplyDeletesorta like "modest" and "2 piece"
ReplyDeleteYou haven't picked one yet? AAAHHH! Seriously, I already have mine done up in glitter on damask/polka dot paper trimmed with vintage lace hanging on the bathroom mirror.
ReplyDeleteHoly crap I learn so much from you! Geez I need to get on thinking about a theme! ;) haha love your blog keep it up sister!
ReplyDeleteJust make sure you don't combine the two and make it "Minimize Glam." That would be Ruth's theme. My theme is "Voicemail" I'm hoping to actually check it this year ... at least once.
ReplyDeleteI think my theme should be "action". As in "getting some".
ReplyDeleteI like "glaminimize" for you. Lots and lots.
inspirate, cause you are such an inspiration to all of us!!
ReplyDeleteHow about "Stop! Listen (to me!)" or your own classic "validate me"
ReplyDeleteYour new header makes me laugh.
ReplyDelete"super deep"
ReplyDeletethat's your theme, you already said it too and it can mean sooo many things.
Wow, those are pretty deep themes. When you said, "theme" I was thinking Winnie The Pooh or Unicorns. Speaking of which, you should start picking the theme for your next baby. That way you can have your registry picked out way in advance and either you're on top of things or very tragic if the infertilities continue.
ReplyDeleteI would recommend, "Minimize" because there are so many cute minimalist you can buy at Pottery Barn right now.
Real Simple magazine gives you lots of good ideas of what you need to buy every month.
Mine is Eternal Companion.
ReplyDeletePray for me.
BEDAZZLE!
ReplyDeleteI vote for "Glaminimize" all the way.
ReplyDeleteI like "on the block". Then you can say stuff like "I have the cutest kids on the block" or "the cutest blog on the block" or " my house is the best house on the block"
ReplyDeletethink of all you could do with the theme "on the block"
Minimalize, except for your shopping habit and faux chesticles.
ReplyDeleteYou know that it has to be "2010 thin is in, I win, I win!
ReplyDeleteDo you get to buy a whole new wardrobe to match your theme??? Yay!
ReplyDeleteBlissfully Aware..
ReplyDeleteTo second Kady Day -- because in your happy world "on the block" also means "in the stake" only it sounds way humbler.
ReplyDeleteMine is 2010-Bring in the Men!
ReplyDeleteFace
ReplyDeleteFace your challenges and more importantly, keep your face pretty.
deep
No, how bout "Simplify" since there are not enough souped up blogs about being Simple by making your own soap and only buying one TV and decorating there bedrooms to match the seasons. I think what they mean is "Simply...." as in Crazy or Complicated or Naive but in your case it would be ....Glam!
ReplyDeleteAlthough your Minimize (but surely you're the perfect size tho already, yea?) comes pretty cloes.
Authenticity!
ReplyDeleteBare.
ReplyDeleteBecause think about it, Bare has the feel of "minimize" and teddy pears with the bonus associations of bare your testimony, bare minerals makeup, and it subtitley makes people think of you NE-KID!
baahahahahaha! I love you!
ReplyDelete"I Value Thrift."
ReplyDeleteThis made me laugh out loud. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteWell, you're always telling us to "validate me" so how about "glamidate"
ReplyDeleteHow about you put minimize and glam together, and make it mini mam?
ReplyDeleteOh wait.
That's a pacifier.
Nevermind.
How about anthropoliglaminize!
You could walk around anthropoliglaminizing people!
With like a wand or something.
I love 'minimize' . Esp when in the largest font possible.
ReplyDeleteLove your 2 idizz. You are right about themes :-) Thank you so much for being a great example of a glamourously righteous babehood :-) Your light not only shines, it glitters!
ReplyDeleteShaylynn made me howl. Thanks, "Blissfully Aware"!
ReplyDeleteOM! (We don't use the G at our house, even for "gosh." It really is just a substitute for the real G word.) I have a theme, too! This year it's "Choose the Righteous." We realized that we might not be hanging around people with our high of standards, so we decided to do a couple of tests. The first will be to invite all our friends to a Superbowl party on Superbowl Sunday. Anyone who comes will fail the first test and be put on our "Do not call" list. Anyone who fails the second test will go on our "Do not hang out with even when they call us" list. The second test flunkies will be people who laugh at the beer commercials.
ReplyDeleteHow about minimize and richus? Can't wait to see those side by side in vinyl!
ReplyDeleteI think the best theme ever would be "Prostate"
ReplyDeleteI think that your new theme should connect the old and the new since you are so chic that way so how about vintyglitz? That's vintage + glitter, a word I am sure doesn't even exsist! (oh and p.s. you put an e on the end of elts, whoopsies) *hugs*
ReplyDeleteTAMN, I'm so embarrassed for you cuz you haven't even blogged once about the crazy stuff happening on the bachelor!
ReplyDelete*Frownsmile* :/
Two years ago mine was 'Procreate in 2008' ...and when I was single it was 'fornicate by 28' (which worked out sort of because I FINALLY got married.)
ReplyDeleteHas someone already suggested 'perfection' ... maybe that's too obvious?
LOVE "GLAMINIZE" that someone up top came up with. So all year you could minimize and then glam, you know, make more room for glamorous in your life? It's kind of perfect.
ReplyDeleteUm, wasn't minimize your theme last year? Because repeating themes is really, really lame.
ReplyDeleteSummer's comment has me laughing my head off. Eliminate your friends if they come to your party!
ReplyDeletedef elimination communication. luv luv LUV the riming. what can top that?
ReplyDeleteWell Tamn, you don't need any glam in your life--I mean, you're tamn!, and you're blog followers would be way sad if you simplified, cause that would mean you might go back to 2 column blogging, and hi, you CAN'T do that...plus, if you want to make wooden painted letters to put above your special space with your journal and all so you can remember your word, minimize would be really hard to fit on the wall...so, how about:
ReplyDeletebreathe (you need to more, plus I heard lindsey lohan has that tatooed on her wrist, and how urban and progressive is she!?)
Design: design everything in your life...NOW...which is another good one...Now. Say it with your eyes closed...now. Awesome, right?
I heart validating you!
I don't think "Good, Better, Best" has been used enough. I'd say go with that one. It's so true.
ReplyDeleteMy sister's is "start slow and taper off." But that will never work for YOU, Tamn. Last year hers was ew, something like "They're may be no I in team, but Failure has both an I and a U." Like, whatever. Who even gets a theme that long? Like ya say-- minimize to sound deep! What about richeousy word Perfectify on vinyl letters that overlap that super fab suggestion from above: Euphoria. Unattainable!
