In retrospect... how was the year for you?

Happy new year @belakyre!! In retrospect, my year was possibly the best of my life so far, despite not realising it at the time… It’s had it’s ups and downs, but boy are the ups ever worth it!

Happy New Year @belakyre. We still have about 14 hours before the New Year hits for us. Looking back, it wasn’t too bad. There were some good things, mixed in with some bad things. It did go by pretty fast. This time last year, we were preparing to say goodbye to my husband for a year, now he’s home and it’s a great feeling knowing he’s here to stay for a while.

Thank you. The same to you.

2010 was a tough year for me. I had physical challenges (with my bad knee) that limited my movement. My work kept slowly dying down.

On the plus side, my husband is enjoying his job.

My year was rather unproductive in many ways. Some bad shit happened, that I feel has permanently changed some relationships in my life. I also have procrastinated on somehing very important, because it is so emotional for me. At the same time I had many happy moments throughout the year, and have had proven to me that many realtionships in my life are strong and are a gift. I am thankful for my wonderful husband, and many other things. I also started exercising regularly again, andI hope that has been positive for my overall health (although I wish I was skinnier from the effort lol). I guess this year was a mixed bag. Hopefully, I can do better next year.

I feel like I barely got through 2010, and that sucks. I hope and pray that 2011 is much better.

I know a lot of people who lost their homes, some that lost their jobs, a couple who died, and one that moved to Los Angeles. I count my blessings every day. My family is healthy, I have a job and a home AND a retirement home. There may be bad days ahead, but 2010 was fine by me.

Good, than crummy, then decent, then awful and now it’s on the up….slowly. Here’s to hoping everyone has a wonderful 2011.

One of the worst years of my life, because my best friend committed suicide. I have no expectations for the coming year. What happens, happens.

Gut wrenching.

It was the best of times, it was the blurst of times….

2010 was not so great, I hope 2011 works out better, though I had a beautiful garden and flowers.

Relationship wise it has been (mostly) great. However, from a personal point of view, I don’t feel proud of anythin achieved in 2010. I plan to get myself out of my job rut in 2011 and give myself a reason to be proud this time next year.

Kinda scary really. Five of my close relatives were out of work, and we have basically been supporting them. Two got jobs within the last couple of months and I hope they are as permanent as can be.

It was a very good year for me. I took a pretty big gamble and won. Next year will be even better.
