2007
Well I hink that it is safe to say that this has been one of the WORST years of my entire life. I shudder at the thought that there are still 5 days left because I don't know what else is going to happen. Let's recap shall we (since that is what you do at the end of the year). I am going to go back a little bit to include last Thanksgiving as well.
1) Got fired from a job I loved the day before Thanksgiving (I was there for almost 5 years....Thanks I appreciate it)
2) In February two of my dad's best friends passed away
Martha Herpes and Eppy Riscarte may they rest in piece
3) The rest of the year has become a blur of bad occurances so please don't feel that because I can't remember when it happened it didn't matter ( my memory is SHOT)
My Uncle Paul Gurry passed away
Gabbie's Father James Esposito passed away
Paul's Father Mariano Russo passed away
My best friend's Dog Prince passed away
My father has been in the hospital THREE times because of issues involving his heart and health, My Uncle DiDi was in the hospital for over a MONTH due to his health, one of my BEST FRIENDS has been in an out of the hospital for the last month for a total of SEVEN times due to a surgery and complications thereafter.
I bought a new (used) car and even though it was in near perfect condition as soon as I got it I had to spend just about 500 dollars to fix in, then it got hit while it was PARKED on the street another 500. I ruined my best friends rear view mirror by backing into a fence during a gust of wind (another 1000).
Now I know that there have been some wonderful things that happened this year as well so I don't want to make it look like I don't appreciate the good things as well so I am going to list them here.
I got a new job almost right away.
My cousin Luke got married.
My friend Ellen had a baby.
My friend Gabbie got engaged
My father got OUT of the hospital all three times
My Uncle DiDi was home for Christmas
It just seems like all that bad outweighs all the good. I can't help it.
and I am at the point now where anytime anything bad happens I just kind of go...Of course...Why wouldn't that happen? It is so horrible. I can't even say that I am depressed because I think I flew past depressed and have just started to REPRESS everything which might be worse b/c I don't know how or when I am going to get around to dealing with everything. I just hope and pray that the next year is better than this one because I really don't know what I will do if I have another 2007.
So as the year ends and we get ready for 2008 all I can say is..................THANK GOD!
