In less then two weeks the new year will begin. 2010 has been packed full of roller coaster adventures. Tears have been shed for relief, happiness and grief.
I started off this year in Hinton, Oklahoma, News Years day I was sobbing over Avery Joe (The fur ball in my life) at the veterinary clinic that stole my bank account. Little did I know that I would be spending the majority of the next 5 months there....but still leaving with my breath of fresh air, Av.
After one failed yet full filling job, I moved BACK to Arizona with nothing but a hope of being closer to family. My Uncle Twain had passed away and it seemed ridicules to be alone in another state while my family struggled to catch their breath.
Two weeks into the unpacking I began my 4 interview process at the American Cancer Society. 5 weeks later I nailed the job and something I wasn't expecting fell into my hands.....Mr. Right.
My scepticism was quickly hushed when I started falling head over heels for my guy and learned a new kind of "Making a difference" with my job. Not only was I blissfully happy, I was content and satisfied. Who woulda thought? After 5 years of saying the last place I would ever find my guy would be in my hometown...there he was. But he had been there all along, all the way from the hallways of my elementary school. Staying in Flagstaff forever, not in the plans...but for now..... I'm ok.
2011 will be more of the same, working at a place that knocks the energy out of me, but gives life meaning. Enjoying the adventures of falling in love and being surrounded by my family to keep my strength going.
