It’s always hard to believe that our “new year” is almost over. Every year. Time always seems to speed up. Maybe it’s age. Who knows.
2011 was a good year.
I was just looking back over the montage I made from 2010 and remembering memories made….was it really almost 2 years ago?! Geesh.
I don’t have the time or memory to do a month by month play like I did last year but I will hit some of the highlights…..
I turned 29.
My nephew turned 1.
My sister got engaged.
I was accepted into Occupational Therapy School.
I have now completed 2 semesters (out of 9).
I spent a week at the beach.
I learned a lot this past year. I learned that I’m much more capable than I give myself credit for. I learned that if you quit participating in unnecessary drama, it goes away. I learned that good friends are hard to come by. And that I’ve got the best ones in my life. I came into a quiet yet unshakable confidence this past year and it feels good. I almost feel like my brain kicked back in after years of substance abuse. My thinking became clearer and I felt more grounded in reality than in previous years.
So here, in no specific order, are photos from 2011. The people in them are the ones that I am the closest to and that make up a large part of my life. I would not be who I am today if it weren’t for all the amazing people in my life.
2011, you were grand. Thanks for the memories!
FRIENDS

WE ARE THE OT1’S!
