Day 986

Well, this year definitely had its fill of ups and downs.  I lost three wonderful family members: Great Aunt Tootie, Grandma Pat, and Grandpa G.  Since the grandparents just passed within the last month and a half, we're still trying to process everything with their loss.  A few other downers, but they aren't worth mentioning.

2012 was also filled with a lot of positive things, too.  Just a few I'd like to mention: friend weddings (especially D+T's Florida fiesta), babies getting bigger (Camden, Eliana, and Ellie), a job that allows me to be creative and travel, and stronger relationships with my family and friends.  I also went on (what feels like) a lot of first dates this year.  Even though I haven't found one to stick around for awhile, I've met a lot of interesting men.  Perhaps one from last week will change things for 2013, but it's far too early to call that one.

Celebrating NYE and the last wedding of the year tonight at The Rathskeller!
