Wonderful thread!!! Judy, tell us more about this new man in your life!!
The biggest thing that happened in our world in 2008 is that Melissa married Garrett in June. He's a wonderful Christian young man. They both have a lot of growing up to do, but with their strong families to back them up, and encourage them, they should do well together. Karen moved to San Antonio and finally decided what she wants to major in & is working the plan, so that's a very positive thing. She and her roommate, a very nice Christian young lady, are getting along very well, and are busy with school and social activities. Both have remained faithful to the church which is rare with single 20 somethings these days. For this we are very thankful!!! My little branch at work had it's best year ever, so our income was up even though hubby's building business was not as active as usual due to the downturn in the economy. He did sign contracts to build two houses last week, and should be signing another this week, so the year is ending on a very positive note for him, and us also. My business should not be so good for 2009, but we are still hopeful that maybe it won't be as bad as they are predicting. I turned 54, and hubby and I celebrated our 35th wedding aniversary this year. He's still my best friend in the whole wide world, so we're doing well. We've both grown spiritually this year, and are dreaming of retirement when we can do more of the things we enjoy doing together. Hubby had some health issues but the conclusion is very positive, so all is well in our world.

Judy, I'm so sorry about Gracie. I know she can never be replaced, but I hope Annie is helping to heal the pain. *hugs*
I'm glad to hear that overall everyone is happy.

In 2008 I....
Turned 24 Got THISCLOSE to moving to the beautiful mountains of BC Travelled to Mexico and New York City, and realized that this is HOME. And I think that maybe my wanting to move before was more about getting away from other problems in my life.... Got asked to be my best friend's maid of honor and made a couple of long long drives to see her! (and it's not over yet!) Became the head of my department at work Started regularly going to the gym Took control of my life and finally got the courage to leave Kyle Started seeing a very sweet and funny guy who makes me smile all day long
