Ok, for those of you who remember the first days of 2012 for me: the disappearing hat, also grandmother's antique hand-mirror (that I realize was also gone from that night, aaand I shouldn't have brought it in the first place. All part of the lesson, you see), then a ticket for not wearing my seatbelt, then imac power cord - not yet a year old - just stopped working.

First of all, the conclusions:

1. The girl who owns the hat is totally awesome and my target audience and someone I very much want wearing my hat! She's adorable, interesting, smart, fun, funnY, and trustworthy! She appreciates it. So that's awesome. I want a photo of her with it on! Anyways. . .

2. The Apple store switched out the power cord, no questions asked. (Thank you dear Robiti for helping with this.)

3. I paid my parking ticket immediately upon entering my house, right after getting it. Ripped it up.

And then, after a few days, the lesson became clear:
Protect yourself or you'll lose power

This is a powerful statement in so many ways - from physically, to what and how you choose to divulge, indulge, and invest. Don't be naive, however don't be fearful. Protect - not from fear, just wisdom. Protect your peace of mind, for example, protect your health.

Really great first few days of this 2012 new year. Hope you are well!
