Last Day of 2006
I can honestly say that I am ready to put 2006 behind. It wasn't a bad year, but not one of my best.
I did a lot of traveling. Twice to VA and twice to NC. Made a trip to Vegas in June. Punta cana last April with the folks. And of course the trip to FL this past month. Not bad for someone who likes to be at home.
Saw Dave Matthews four times. Twice at StarLake, Fourth of July in VA, and once at Blossom. By the way - Stay clear of Blossom the venue sucks! But that is an entirely different story.
My friends threw me a surprise birthday party. It was one of the nicest things anyone has done for me. It was all girls and we had a blast! I was truly surprised and I still can't believe they pulled it off.
I had friends get married and have children. It was the year of Penelope! She is great.
Work went well, I won the Director's Choice Award at work. Received a small promotion, won store of the month and store of the quarter.
On the other side, I ended a relationship with someone who was really special to me for the past three or four years. I don't talk about it much, mostly because I don't think anyone but me was sad about it. If I brought it up I would get a ton of I told you so's. No one would really understand how I felt in the first place. That is my fault because I never really talked about it to anyone, so I don't think anyone was aware of how I felt. I know people that can just sit and talk for hours about their personal life and tell everyone. I feel weird putting it all out there like that. I guess I could work on being more open this upcoming year. It is still hard, but I sent my peace email to end the year on a brighter note.
So obviously, the good outweighed the bad this year. I still have high hopes for 2007! Happy New Year.
