Step Into The Light

you know 2013 started out absolutely horrendously horrible for me, I'm grateful and thankful no one In my family was hurt or sick, I mean there were blessings, but in my own head, I almost lost a really dark battle, and the rest of the year had a lot of ups and downs, mentally. I've always been a stable person, mentally, and this year was like a ringer, it almost did me in, and people's comments and hate along the way weren't exactly helpful either, but I can say that the year is now over and I've been feeling better, starting in about October 2013.
I wanted to do this, a look back through the year and then I was like 'what did I accomplish?' 'Not much', I hated on myself, 'I didn't go to England, didn't get another official job, didn't this, didn't that.' But I know better than to always be looking at the downside of things, If there is a downhill, there is an up hill. 2013 was a in-between-year, a recovery year, I know I'll accomplish more in 2014, every day is a chance..

Here's some of the upsides to 2013;
Ran an entire print shop for a whole cycle, printing hundreds of news letters.
Explored, and walked, and walked in Colorado.
Got muscle back.
Drove by myself in a big city-a lot.
Took initiative and met random people.
Called more businesses than ever, looking for a job.
Capped an entire roof.
Almost got hit by a pick up truck.
Conquered new yoga moves.
2013 also brought mum and I to Sherlock (that alone makes the year better haha).
Finished numerous paintings and drawings, that I'd started years ago.
Ran more.
Went to my first Apple Orchid, Ever.
Wrote and figured out more on my Great Story.
Planted and picked loads of veggies.
Canned loads of veggies.
Decorated a cake, by myself (and it came out pretty good)
Tried some new wines, and Carolans (I'm not really into drinking).
I think they're should be more to this then just this but frankly I'm tired and this is about as good as it gets for now, I'll add some more later if i think of good stuff
