2009, My Year in Review
2009 Will go down as a great year for me.
I set two clear goals –
1. Complete the Two Oceans Half Marathon
2. Work on my blog regularly and get my first Google Adsense cheque
By April my work for the year was done!
Not actually…but I achieved what I set out to do.
The defining moment of 2009 was with 15 minutes to go during Two Oceans.
I felt like the end was nowhere in sight and some part of me didn’t feel like I would make it.
That’s when the hard headed side of me said a few swear words (I would rather not repeat) . Because no way was I giving into defeat.
That was that. I shifted to a new gear and got home with 7 minutes to spare.
I have seldom been more proud of myself.
However, I kept that never say die attitude in other situations during the year.
I also let a few friendships go – without drama. And I made new friends who made me laugh and vice versa (hopefully).
Two-sided friendships are better than one-sided ones.
Work-wise I had one or two moments I’d rather forget. At the same time I have a colleague who knows how to support me when I over react. (hey, I’m an Aries. We get hot headed sometimes ;-D )
So my working year was less stressful than ever.
No huge family dramas, thank heavens, if you dont count my Mitchell’s Plain aunty’s usual mutterings
.
So it’s almost goodbye to a most memorable year.
However, 2010 I suspect will be even better!
