An Epic Year! 2011 in Review (Part 1)

DenaDecember 29, 2011

Two thousand & eleven has been extraordinarily epic for so many reasons. I don’t even know where to begin! Personally, I’ve had tremendous highs & desperate lows. In the end, like life, it was terrible & it was beautiful.

Here’s a look at my year in review.

In January, I:

  • Moved into my own little apartment for a few months
  • Lost one of the most beautiful women I’ll ever know–my precious grandmother
  • Learned an incredible lot about the deep wells of strength within me

    Looks great so far, interesting what memories flash thru our mind as we read and review the year’s activities. I would say that it has been a very good year for you overall, some tough times early, but, a lot of wonderful things as well.
