One of those days.

Today feels awful, and I can't quite figure out why. I have that alone and depressed sentiment and I just can't shake it. The house isn't empty, I've had a lot of fun lately, but something just is hitting me a little too hard.

A friend of mine asked me by text yesterday how I'd rate my year. That was a hard question. In terms of life trauma, (with 1 being worst and 10 being best) I'd give it a 2. It was awful. In terms of career/finances, a 5. I just seemed too distracted to get anywhere. In terms of family life, maybe a 4. So hard. Ouch. In terms of personal progress and moving forward in life, an 8. Looking back through the veil of hindsight tells me I've accomplished quite a bit.

To all my blog friends--I love you. You have enriched my life so much, and I want you to know it. I got to see several of you last night, meet a couple new ones too. Your perspective has done so much for me. I'm not sure what I would have done this past year without you.

  3. You have had a tough year, in many respects.

    The math teacher in me made do it- your "average" in the way you rated the parts of your year came out just a little more than 4. I am sorry it has been tough.

    Sending good and happy energy your way.

    Wishing you the happiest of New years!
