2013 Recap

Before I started writing this post I read my post from exactly a year ago. (It’s here if you want to check it out too.) I wrote these words, having no idea how tough 2013 would be:

“I want to surprise myself with my strength, my ability to deal with whatever comes my way.”

There was more hard family stuff, more time spent in hospitals with family members than is right for anyone,and not knowing what was going to happen next in the last year. But, you know what? I dealt with it. I didn’t lose it. There were lots of conversations in which I cried and friends listened to what was going on.

In fact, I didn’t just deal with it, I made some positive changes in my life too. I started volunteering. I decided to pursue going back to school and I started my chemistry class. I got a second and third job. I’m going to be needing some big bucks to be able to afford school.

I’ve been going to yoga more regularly than I ever have before.

I grew an amazing garden this year and ate lots of fresh veggies because of it.

I’m still trying to figure out a few goals that I want to accomplish in 2014. Once I know what they are, I’ll be sure to share them with you.

What was on thing you were proud of doing in 2013?
