Another Brick in the Wall - Google Blogger

This has been a hell of a year, with some good changes.

Probably the two high points of the year are the two most recent ones.
I switched jobs to something that was very challenging and rewarding,
that was *much* better pay and for roughly half the hours. I still can
barely begin to describe what this has meant to me.

The other huge event is Kim's permanent residency. This was something
that had been hanging over our head since 2000. That's a hell of a long
time to live in fear and uncertainty.

I've also made some great new friends this year. While I still don't
get out to socialize as much as I'd like, I am hoping to change that
significantly this coming year. It's only been the past month or so
that I've even started having the freedom to do more of what I want, and
I hope to continue that trend.

Also lining up with the new job is the fact it's going to allow me to
haul myself out of debt a lot sooner. I'll have the lawyer paid off
within the next week. I'll have Credit Counselling complete in the next
week.

I'll have the registration for my car straightened out in the next week.
These are all stressors I get to kill off because I took a leap of faith
in my own skills and landed a phenomenal job.

There's more, and I could probably sift through my entire years worth of
posts... but honestly? I'm a chatty post-whore and the idea of dredging
through some of it just seems like far too much work. I think most
people who know me are pretty up to speed on all the changes in my life
this year.

For those that aren't, dig back through <a
href="http://blog.ddiction.com/">my blog</a> which has the years and
months neatly archived *grin*

Cheers everyone, and I look forward to another year with all y'all!
