-No longer a Gaia mod
-Broke up with my boyfriend of 10 years
-Reconnected with high school and college friends (thanks Facebook! lol)
-Saw the Pacific Ocean
-Wrote $75,000 in new grants (so far!)
-Made a couple of awesome new friends

I was taking stock a bit since it's halfway through the year and so far it's been a really good one. I realize a couple of those seem like they might be negatives but honestly I see everything on that list as a positive development for me.

I've even had a little time for art, though I don't have anything ready to be uploaded yet.

Overall I'd say this has been the best year I've had in a long time, and I hope the second half will be as good as the first. It's been stressful, but I'm glad things have worked out the way they did.
