Best of 2008

It's hard to believe its the 12th of January already and to celebrate the beginning of 2009 I decided to put together a list of my top 10 favorites...I know its going to be a little hard this year since nothing too exciting - except my job of course went on. No grand trip, no exciting moments...just lots of good times with friends and family. Hopefully next year though, the memories will be full of travel (see New Year Resolutions for details on that one!)

1. Dawn's Wedding: It's great to see her soo happy and I was excited to be a part of it.

2. My last day at IPA: memorable in a good way - I got to do lunch with my favorite co-workers and we had a wonderful time at Chicago Speakeasy. I must say 2008 was a year of firsts - first time I was laid off from a job!

3. My hair: bangs for the 1st time in what???? nine or ten years.

4. The neighbor dying - yes its sad but its made the duplex bearable again and NO christmas lights - yeah!!!!  And no these are not in any kind of order. I'm just writing as it comes to me!

5. my pink camera - what might have been better was a purple camera but then again, I wanted little compact

6. my new coworkers- who could have asked for better co-workers (see #2) but then again, I like all my new coworkers

7. my new job - same job description, just diferent location...I almost put that I didn't have to drive to Ankney anymore, because yes, that is an accomplishment!

8. Obama being elected president. My vote did count! What might have been even sweeter would have been Edwards getting elected. Oh well.

9. NYE - wine, wine, wine and more wine... #9 works for all the wonderful times I've had with my friends

10. My birthday - the big 30 - between bowling and karoke and a wonderful meal with friends... and did I mention wine? yeah, wine too. It was one of the best birthdays yet. It will just be hard to top!
