Remembrance of Memorial Days Past
Posted on 29 May 2010
Curious, what milestones we set for ourselves. For some reason, Memorial Day seems to be an annual turning point for me:
- 2010: TBD. :)
- 2009: Triplets had just been born the week prior; Ryan and Jess were moving to Grand Rapids from Bay City.
- 2008: Met Andrew (inaugurating a six-month period of cultural and relationship turmoil); went for first trip to Las Vegas with Tony.
- 2007: Participated in community parade on behalf of the dojo — which helped me make more connections there. Also, I caught up on all my old bills and finally achieved a solid financial position.
- 2006: Increased the distance I ran on the sidewalks of Kentwood, a pattern that held for the entire summer.
- 2005: First signifianct “make-over” as part of my major weight-loss program — new hair style, got contacts, changed my wardrobe — before heading to family party at my mom’s cottage.
- 2004: Had to prepare an newspaper issue almost single-handed, because almost all of my editors were away.
- 2003: Friday prior, I received my diploma for my B.A. from Western Michigan University.
It remains to be seen what new delight will greet me this Memorial Day.
