20-11

I don't care for New Years. It's too much pressure for one day. And people expect things to happen at midnight-like change will be instantaneous. As a person who barely makes it day to day, I don't like being forced to look at the entire year I left behind as well as the year in front of me. Sometimes, it's too much for me to face. But each holiday gets easier, and I really like my low key New Years. Like spending it on the couch watching a movie while my neighbors blast music and fireworks all night. Nevertheless, 2010 wasn't all bad. It gave me this:

-an acceptance that my family is just us 3, and that's ok-relationships that were deepened-trust that was lost-2 trips to utah-1 trip to thatcher-2 trips to california-girlfriends made, same girlfriends married-kids turning older-finishing nursing school-accomplishing things i NEVER thought i could do-learning patience-losing patience-becoming more confident-becoming more cynical-a job and family i'm grateful for-a move to a new house-a new hair color-being let down-the strength to go on.
