so long, and thanks for all the fish.

2014 hasn't been kind to the nation and is going out screaming and kicking with massive floods in the East Coast and a crashed flight, but in the face of pains and fears and uncertainties, I want to wrestle a shred of hope for myself by bringing to mind all the good things that have also happened and be thankful for them.

As I went through my 2014 blog posts and also Facebook (srsly, I'm so thankful for social media otherwise my life is essentially gone with the wind), I am repeatedly reminded that I am blessed beyond measure, and how could I not when I have..

• these gals
• this miracle 
• this new look 
• this wedding
• this farewell
• this food trip
• this work trip
• this drive
• this family
• these friends
• and these
• and these
• this boy 
• and this
• this hobby
• these songs
• this musical
• this list
• this opportunity
• this milestone
• this charity, and 
• this reunion?

And on this high note, I bid this blog goodbye. Kinda :( but I'll hold it in. See you on the other side!
