2009 = Ambivalence

I am so ready for 2009 to just be over with. While there were many good things that happened, it was definately the year of death. Not only with all of the celebrities that have passed, but in my life and those around me. It seems like everyone I talk to have had many people in their life that passed away this year.

In my life, we've had my cousin, my husband's great-grandfather, a colleuge, a friend from high school, my husband's "aunt"...that's far too many already.

However, there were two births in the family as well! My son and my niece. We are happy and blessed that both babies are happy and healthy.

I hope that 2010 has more happy times than sad. Let's start a decade off right!
