Day 365 - December 31

Here we are.  Day #365.  This year is ending right where it began - on 34th street in Hamden.  The bright orb you see is a street light, but if you look a little to the left and a little down, that's the mini ball that drops. 

2010 was a decent year - definitely better than 2009, but I'm hoping 2011 is even better.

Best part of 2010 was finally finding a house!  We also enjoyed the vacations - California, Boston, and Arizona.  We didn't see my mother as many times this year - she stayed in AZ for more time.  She was still here for Easter, her dr's appt's in the fall, and a wedding in the fall though. :) We survived a couple blizzards, although they were made easier by not being homeowners at the time.  We said goodbye to Sneakers which was sad, but attended several weddings that were happy! I went to my first roller derby bout and joined a book club to meet people near our new house.  We bought a grownup dining room table and learned how to install a garage door opener.  I had some seriously crazy medical tests done at the beginning and end of the year, but there's still technically nothing wrong with me!  While we did go to professional sporting events this year, somehow in the calendar year of 2010 we did not see a Ravens or Orioles game in person.  We ate some great meals, mostly on vacation, and took some great pictures that we still need to get around to putting up in the house.  And one of these days we'll completely unpack the boxes in the back bedroom....but hey, we have to leave something for 2011. :)
