2006, you may have tried to beat me down, but I fight back!

2006 has been a rough year for me. I’ve been focused on the wrong group of people, I’ve fallen for the wrong guys (2005 taste in men, come back!), been diagnosed with bipolar disorder (which forced me to face some things I didn’t necessarily want to), I killed a dog or a cat, I got a speeding ticket, I no longer have the best ankle break in the whole family, and now my new meds are giving me a funny taste in my mouth.

But!

There were some good things, some excellent things even. So, I present to you 10 things that prove in 2006 wasn’t actually a bust:


  1. I met Stewie. Stewie is awesome. Y’all should meet her too.
  2. Kristi, who is also awesome. And bonus, her husband rocks!
  3. I found out I’m going to be an aunt. (Don’t tell TRgirl and Randy, but since I don’t plan on having kids, this means that I get to buy the noisy toys. I am so buying and stashing Annoy-the-crap-out-of-me Elmo. Until he’s 3. (My nephew, not Elmo.))
  4. New job!
  5. Ridiculous raise at new job.
  6. I paid off my car.
  7. Turkey shoot. I love the Turkey Shoot. Or, I love shooting things.
  8. I started jumping again. (On horses. So, really, it’s the horse that’s jumping. But I do have to stay on.)
  9. Therapy. Should have done that years ago.
  10. Bruno and I won sixth place for the year at MacNair’s.

All in all it doesn't look like it was too bad a year at all!

Sounds like a good list to me. I am curious though (I must have missed the entry) on how you killed a dog OR a cat? I am guessing it was either a BIG cat or a SMALL dog .....
