Looking back on the year that was 2009, CP and I had a pretty busy year.
*We survived a year in the most boring town imaginable for people our age. Hopefully we will remedy this soon and move to Denver!
*We survived planning a wedding hours away from our house and without much help from family and the wedding party. Luckily, now we just can look forward to other people’s weddings….including one later this month in New Orleans!
*We survived spending three months away from each other because of my work rotation. Hopefully CP’s job doesn’t have him traveling a lot this year, but one never knows.
*We survived working with a trainer and going to the gym together. I managed to lose 20 pounds, gain back 10 while living in DC, and lose 15 more before the wedding. I am up 5 pounds and need to get back on the losing-weight train. CP lost about 25 pounds himself, but has put on more than 10 of it. He is currently back in the gym, trying to run it off.
*We survived trips to Cancun and South Africa/ Mozambique. This year we have only two trips planned so far- New Orleans for a wedding and Denver for a week of skiing (but hopefully we will have moved by then!). Not as exotic, but just as fun!
*We survived our money troubles and will hopefully continue to move in a positive direction. We have a strict budget in place that we monitor weekly and hope to get a renter into our condo out west soon. Paying for a mortgage and rent at the same time and only living in one of the places? Pretty much sucks.
Today is the first day of 2010. What will the year ahead look like for me and CP?
