2011
So, 2009 & 2010 came and went without a single entry in my blog...I suppose I will mostly claim that Facebook satisfied my need for providing an update place on my activities. Of course all the activities have to fit the Facebook template (status/picture/link) but hey, who really pays attention past the first sentence anyway. And now here we are, in 2011!
2010 was a pretty good year, all things considered. Given the crappy economic conditions I am just happy that I made it all the way through with the same job, home and (almost all the way) car (the unfortunate demise of my car in December led to a new car hunt before Christmas, probably everybody's least favorite shopping task). More importantly, however, I'm still healthy and blessed with an abundance of friends & activities.
I had some fun travel in 2010, and some not-so-fun. I spent a week in Seville (Spain) for a conference & sight-seeing; had a great trip to New York City with the Gunn HS choir (and some extra time with my local friends), a trip to St. Louis for my little sister's 50th birthday, a weekend in Washington DC visiting friends (and the 'Rally to Restore Sanity'), a couple trips to Boston and a few to San Diego. Enough for elite status at United, anyway.
2009 was a long time ago, now what did I do then...Well, there was that trip to Prague & Vienna with the Gunn choir, places I probably would never have gone otherwise, and glad that I did. Another trip to NYC, oh yeah - a week in Barcelona (Christmas & my birthday, also New Years' Eve). And Mom's big 80th birthday bash in November, back in Delphos - first time in a while that the whole family was together (even if only for a day or so).
I guess I'm hoping to update this blog a little more often, and hoping that this fills the gap since the last post, even if only a little. Here's hoping that 2011 is a great year!
