Another year....

Wow, happy birthday to me.

What to say about the last year. Honestly I have ridden a roller coaster of emotions to a point where I must be setting some sort of world record. I think I have hit the highest highs and the lowest lows I am capable of. There were days I would wonder, why am I doing all this...what's the point? And there were days where I didn't think my life could honestly get better than this. I suppose we all have these moments. I just felt like I was constantly running through that gauntlet....like 'running ladders' from PE class.

I see that light at the tunnel....Its been in my view for some time, its just unreachable. Maybe in a month? or 3 weeks? Who knows. I am just thankful it will be soon. And as soon as that day is discovered, I will be making plans for a party, and my new tattoo.

I nearly lost my life in a crazy car accident. I still have nightmares about that to this day. I can only hope someday they just go away. Maybe next year? I would never wish the absolute terror I went through on anyone. Even DK.

One very bright spot in the last year has been my absolute dedication, and devotion, to dance. I wish it wasn't so ridiculously expensive, but I love it. Nothing makes me feel better about myself, and feel incredibly confident, than being out on that dance floor. I would be one bitter debbie downer if I didn't have to look forward to each week.

I love my friends. There are days where sometimes I want to smack them upside the head, but honestly, they have allowed me to maintain some sort of sanity in the last year. They've helped me keep my chin up and smile even when I didn't think I could. Without you guys, I would be lost, and probably a hermit.

So for reflection, it's been a transformation year for me. I got a new face, a new car, and a new found respect for myself through dancing. There is also a shiny new telephone pole where the one I so abruptly removed was.

Cheers to another year....and for more firsts in the next one. It can only get better :-)
