2,000 and 12

2012, Are you kidding me?! Aren't we all suppose to be dead by now?? Or shouldn't we at least be driving flying cars?! How in this world is it already the year two-thousand-twelve?! Doesn't it seem like just a year or so ago we were bringing in the new millennium and wondering if the technological world would crash?! How has it been 12 years since all that happened?! I can't believe it!!


I must admit, I'm a sucker for the year end recaps. I love looking back at the past year - good and bad. I watch the recaps of music, sports, entertainment, politics, etc. As with every year, there were some ups and downs, good times and trying times in 2011. That's typical, though, right?!

It was no different for us either - ups and downs, good and bad.


David has had some pretty complicated health issues from his months of testing for his headaches (which still aren't completely gone) to finishing out the year with pneumonia! The summer brought my Mom and Dad's first Stateside Furlough. (I'm so sad to see that come to an end!!) We were able to renew and strengthen some friendships, but we also lost out of some great friendships too. We said goodbye to some people we care deeply for and also celebrated new life (physical and spiritual) with friends and family. We traveled - domestic and foreign. We tried new things. We learned things that work and don't work for us.


Overall, I think it was a good year. I can't wait to see what the next year has in store for us.


Now, I'm not one for all the New Year Resolutions. I think it is kind of silly to make all those lofty plans, because no one really keeps them. I do have some hopes and ideas for the new year, but I guess we'll have to wait and see what all is in store for us.


I guess this post is a To Be Continued ...
