It seems like this blog belongs to someone else. It's been so long and so much has changed....
Life feels like it's been put on the spin cycle, and occasionally feels more like a blender (that would be because of the blades...no blades in the washer...)
We're coming up on a year anniversary of things just plain going south on us here at the A-Thon house. For my own thrills and giggles, I'm going to write it all down chronologically. Enjoy the little stroll down memory lane, why don't you?
2009
July: Truck stolen. First new car I ever had. It was a gift from Dad-A-Thon. Police cared not one little bit.
September: Had a small heart surgery. It went well, but I had been having progressive issues with a lifelong heart defect that were scaring me. On the plus side, I am symptom free, and we did hit Disneyland while in LA.
October: I turned 40. Not even going to open that one up all the way.
November: Had an abnormal mammogram that seems to be fine, but now I get them every few months, just to be sure.
December: My dear friend Chris died of lung cancer. I still miss her and can't believe those boys will not have her anymore!
State of Hawaii decides it needs money and will get it by auditing all businesses.* We have a business. Oh the fun.
2010
January: Disgruntled employee sicks DOL on aforementioned business.*
February: Dad-A-Thon's car is hit (and they ran) while parked. Repair cost $2K. Niiice.
March: This one is a plus and a minus--whilst dealing with what could truly be called one of the worst years EVER, we decide to adopt TWO doberman puppies. Thank the Lord they are so cute.
April: Started working full time (and then some) to help Dad-A-Thon (see December and January for more info).
May/June: chaotic life that the A-Thons have worked so carefully to avoid is now the new normal.
*still ongoing
There. That brings us to now which is me feeling pretty sorry for myself and wondering just what happened to my cushy life?
