In Closing- 2009

A friend in my office gave me the brilliant idea to look over the past decade and rate the ten best and worst moments. Due to my terrible memory and the lack of enthusiasm I've had for the past ten years I've decided to focus on 2009.

Here is goes.

Worst of 2009

1.Sadie dying
2.Walter deploying along with my other friends
3.The IPO (enough said there)

Best of 2009

1.Living with Megan

2.Meeting and falling in love with Steve

3.FINALLY getting a dog

4.Making money

5.Going on my first cruise

6.Moving back home and being close to my family again

7.Going back to church

8.The ability to travel (Nashville, Tampa, Caribbean, etc)

9.Steelers winning the Superbowl

10.Steve----is it apparent yet that he is really the best thing that's happened to me?



Honestly as I'm recapping my past year, it's been mostly good. Yes I hate my job, but I'm grateful to have one that I make good money at. I started off 2009 alone in my apartment down in Florida, and I'm ok with that. I told myself life is all about your attitude and your outlook on things, and I've decided that I was right. You can improve your situation by having a positive outlook. Don't get me wrong there are days where I hate life, and where I don't want to get out of bed to go to work, but overall I'm pretty happy. I couldn't come up with many worst's of 2009 because even though at the time things might have sucked they brought me to where I am today. And honestly I don't have much, if anything, to complain about. I'm loved by my friends, family, and Steve and that's all that really matters.  

For 2010 I hope to find a job that is more fulfilling, get in shape, save a good amount of money for the future, and have my best friend live close to me!

In the end it's a new year with a fresh slate. Start with a positive outlook.

2010 I'm ready for you and the endless possibilities you bring.
