My friend Jenny asked me, "what are you most proud of this year?"
...It's hard to say because so many *huge* things in my life happened in my life in 2008. I don't know what I'm most proud of, though. Let me try to think of something from every month...
January: Paid for dave and I to go to Germany for two weeks (sorry, I'm pretty proud of that...I saved FOREVER!). Oh, and graduated college.
February: Started working as a forensics coach, the best real job I have ever had. See how important my job is? I have files.
March: I worked as a publicity assistant at my alma mater then and helped coordinate the college career fair--that was a trip. Took nine kids to the state speech tournament (where, as the bus driver, I learned way more about my students than I wanted to). This picture is like "spot the adult."
April: Nothing huge I can think of. But that's okay because May was insane.
May: Was asked to give a speech at Dana. Walked in the grad ceremony. My brother graduated. I got to model my wedding dress in a fashion show. Got married.
June: Sent in those tax forms for Princess Lasertron and became a legal business...yikes.
July: the omaha wedding essentials magazine came out. kristal and brett's wedding.
Aug: started graduate school (pretty much on a whim).
Sept: nothing happened except a vacation in chicago
Oct: did a seminar thing at about hustler magazine. article in country living.
Nov: did my vendor show at silver bella
Dec: freaking 35 page research paper!
No picture of that yet. Maybe tomorrow when I finally finish it (and hand it in at the last minute).
What am I most proud of?
Before this year, I don't think I ever lived as an independent person.
Now I am supporting two people and I love my job so much.
Last year at this time I never would have believed I would be here right now.
And I'm also proud at how well I'm managing stress without medication.
