January - Came back from Bermuda and thought that I would be inspired to try new recipes in 2008. That quest boldly failed. However there is always this year.

February - Officially starting working the Facebook networking thing. Got completely sucked in, but I like it because I've found a ton of people that I always wondered where they were. I also failed at my random acts of kindness quest by returning Barbies to an acquaintance. I'll get on that this year to get them out of my house.

March - It snowed and it snowed some more.

April - I hit one year post-back surgery. Had the smoking job interview. Not much exciting, I went quiet.

May - I started the job from hell and was definitely silent during training. No access to a computer sucks.

June - More funky scheduling from the job from hell. People, if you decide to quit smoking - do it and don't complain about it. If it's against your will to quit, then don't. Wait until you want to quit.

July - The end of my noon to nine schedule when my contract is not extended at the end of the month. Much celebration on my part. Only 2 of my training class are currently left, 1 in school who is sucking it up until she graduates and the other is job hunting as I type.

August - Was growing veggies, spending time with Bonnie and trying to clear up three months of house neglect.

September - I turned 35 and planned a wedding. Made a bunch of applesauce, apple jelly and other glorious canning adventures.

October - Started the baby making process, had the roof cleaned finally, and headed to San Francisco to get married.

November - Got married, watched Obama get elected, cussed the California voters on Prop 8, and spent lots of wonderful love time with Kim & Fergal. Note to self - wedding post needed

December - It started snowing again. We thought we would be snowed in and not make it to Florida. (Darn!) Did make it to Florida though and spent time with lots of family. Celebrating the entrance of 2009 on a plane as we traveled back home.

I'm lazy and never pulled my ballet class video off of YouTube after I passed it around to our class. However, every now and then I get comments from people who have somehow found my video. Because of the comments I'm less incline to remove it because I get feel good moments like this one today:
the miss in all black was doing the best in my opinion. She shows great grace, despite what judgment some people would conceive because she's not got a 'ballet body'.
I'm the miss in all black. And as awkward as I felt while it was video taped, it makes me feel good that I show great grace. :)

For everyone who received care packages and enjoyed the contents, thank you for enjoying them. I'm glad you all liked the fruits of my labor.

Which brings me to my final feel good moment of today. At dinner Ronette told me that our friend Kelly called to tell us her other half's reaction to our care package. Apparently the scene went something like this . . .
Kelly cooked dinner; pork chops & applesauce. Bill ate dinner. While scooping applesauce off his plate Bill tells Kelly that she needs to remember this brand of applesauce because it is soooooo good. Kelly says that's nice, but since it's Dana & Ronette's applesauce she can't just go buy more. Bill had Kelly call us to put in his applesauce request for next year.

I knew I enjoyed my applesauce, but that made my day.
