It was a really difficult year. I was going to say it sucked, but I've decided to be positive. Lets just say I lost a lot this year, but gained some things that I wouldn't have without those losses.
If you could recap 2016, how it played out in your world- what would you say? Good, bad, or otherwise?
2016 started out ok, but as it went on it has not been the kindest of years. Too many people I know battling cancer. Too many people gone.
It has had it brightside though. One nephew got engaged and another nephew became a dad for the first time.
A good year. We cherished the first year of our granddaughter and learned of her brother on the way in a couple months. Our son got married, and gained a lucrative position in a solid firm just minutes from our home. Our youngest daughter became a senior. The family vacation in Italy was stupefacente. On the vain, materialistic side (yes, my weakness) I got my complete fill of pleasure boating and took delivery of my new NSX, in Nov. You might still hear the Mrs groan about that one.
On the not so bright, the nasty election circus was rammed down our throats too much and too many exceptional people were lost. My neighbor and very good buddy lost his ex-wife and son in a horrible truck crash, last spring. Drunk driver. Sadly, that tragedy may be what I remember first about an otherwise banner year at the Z palace.
Same old story, same old life. It's mine and I'm thankful, absolutely nothing bad happened and therefore thankful nothing changed. Finally, I have no complaints and my health all things being considered is relatively good.
(arthritis is still :( not my friend)
I'm thankful, grateful and feeling much better.
My home is beautiful, I live in a wonderful park like setting. My old (16.5 yrs) gifted :) car over 1 plus year is super. Truly a blessing to me ⚘.
I survived the year, so did Mrs Didge and little Zoe. My car has a bruised ego but will be as good as new in a couple of weeks. I guess it's been a pretty decent year.
