A year ago.

Me on the left with a few co-workers about this time last year.

Since this picture was taken I've:

• Made it to the one year anniversary with my company!!!! I had my doubts at times but it's paid off.
• Adopted the best dog ever. She's curled up on the couch right now. She's so incredibly adorable AND well behaved! Jac is totally worth the $150 bucks I paid for her last January.
• Bought at least a hundred dog toys since then. Most of which have been consumed.
• Cut my hair even shorter. Not sure why....
• Moved to a different location with work.
• Quit my part-time job.
• Moved to a different apartment. Considered and re-considered breaking my current lease....
• Decorated for Christmas again.
• Made new friends that I don't know how I ever lived without. Lost touch with a few friends I thought I could never live without.
• Attended a couple of awesome weddings. They are indeed dropping like flies. Except more gracefully.
• Killed a bazillion big nasty southern bugs in my apartment.
• Joined my church. Joined the church choir-- poor people...
• Lost my camera. Rejoiced when Dad found my camera 6 months later (in my car).
• Come to the conclusion that living near family is more important than living in a nice climate. I've actually been thinking about moving further south (FL) which I thought I would never do, being a Michigander at heart.

It's been a good year. God has seen me through. He is always good. I look forward to another year and hope that I will make it even better than the last by following my Saivor even closer.
