How was 2010 to you? - Page 4

Gas Man · 12-30-2010, 09:08 PM

Much like everybody else... .ups and downs. Went out on a down so I'm ready for 2011.

Ups:
10k on two wheels
prospering at my job and added duties
have a job
made lots of money due to loads of OT
Got 2 new cars
Lowered car payments with new cars
Uma got a promotion and is doing well with it. Very well.

Downs:
worked way way way too much
mom was in the hospital and I had to make her life decisions while she's was unconscious (real mind F'in)
Uma's papa died last week
we barried papa
BIL, SIL, Niece, 2 dogs moved out of my home after 10months

Neithers:
Uma & I got our wisdom teeth removed

There's been good and bad.
I don't want to sound ungrateful for the good, so I'll just say I'm looking forward to a better 2011.

no complaints here, grateful for my family and friends, hoping for an even better 2011....

2010 was pretty good for me. New Grandson, New car and trailer for my racing itch, Wife finished her Masters degree, a couple of kick ass trips.

That's commitment.

Most people just go for the second honeymoon.

Exactly... couples that get wisdom teeth pulled stay together cause they no longer know any better.

It's been up and down.

I moved into my own place (yay), got a new job (yay) but took a pay cut (boo), though it's a less stressful job (yay), but it's getting eliminated in May (boo), got financial aid for school all straightened out to start school in a week (yay), dealt with some ongoing depression (boo).

I think that's peaks and valleys of the year, as best as I can think of it. I'm hoping for more peaks, less valleys next year.

Erik got a job after 1-1/2 years of unemployment, making it easier on us. But he hates it (not busy enough) so it makes things miserable for us.

Got to do a long road trip on the bike, something we have talked about for a while and finally did in May. Planning to do again.

Some ups and some downs, nothing spectacular but nothing terrible.

Good things include getting my Associates degree in entrepreneurship and learning that I only had a year left for my Bachelors in marketing and PR. I got back on two wheels with the purchase of my little Honda. I left the States for the first time and went to Italy, France, and Spain.

2011 will be better. I will graduate in 3 months. Hopefully land a good career that will pay enough money for me to get my own house with my friends, a new car/truck, and new(ish) bike.

Some good, some bad.

Grandfather died.
Got to see my city trashed, first by a bunch of professional protesters, then by the police.
Didn't make a whole bunch at the photography game, this year.
Ending the year with a case of Bursitis.

... but ...

Have a good job with a good income, and good bosses.
Got back in the saddle after largely not riding for a couple of years.
Have an idea how to try and make up for the income that I didn't make, through photography.
