2004 wrap up. It is really over isn't it?
I was going to write one of those end of year synopsis entries where I tell you all the things I remember about 2004 and it is just depressing as hell to be honest.
You don't really want to read about all of that because it saddens me to write it. So I won't do that.
I will say that of course we had our hard times in 2004, but some good things did come out of it:
We got Buckley
who really has been the saving grace of the year. We love him so much, I know, you can tell. Who has more pictures of their cat than they do anything else? We do.
Mr. ralph got serious about weight loss and is now a mere 6 kilos away from his goal, which helped me get closer to my goal by getting rid of his bad eating influences. Although if I were to come home and say, "Let's get a pizza!" He would still say, "Yeah sure!" Instead of, "How about we eat something less fattening."
I've been given a new contract at work that means I have stability while mr. ralph is looking for a university job over this next few months. This trust me is good because my job stability was looking shaky for a while when the workflow slumped dramatically about 6 months ago.
I have made some incredible friends that I met through work that have since become what I think will be lifelong mates as well as new blog friends.
We went to America and we got to see Boston, NYC, New Orleans, Washington DC, and San Francisco as well as visiting lots with my family. Mr. ralph got to meet more family members of mine and some childhood friends as well.
Mr. ralph has finished his thesis and is now jumping head first into looking for work and getting his resume in order. We will probably find ourselves moving to the States in 2005.
So there you have it. Only the good things.
I'm really looking forward to 2005. It is going to be my year, I have no doubt about that. Plus I turn 30. And unless I freak out and let the scary Three Ohhh get to me, it really has got to be my year.
Everyone with me on this?
Thought so.
Tomorrow I will have to tell you about my interesting NYE, it is worth waiting for, and possibly some new pictures.
