2018 - yay, nay or meh

[lovely1m]

I actually had a pretty decently good year and my one little word fit my year perfectly (commit). I am having trouble thinking of a good one for next year. It's going to be a mixture of really good things (getting married, yay!) and really hard on my family things (being separated by work) next year. So it's hard and I am unsure what will fit.

2018 was chaotic but also very nay for me. My world was ripped apart when my grandmother died in August and it hasn't been the same since. Hopefully the new year/hopefully fresh start will snap me out of this extreme funk I've been in. I'm hoping 2019 will be better to me.

Hugs all around to those who have had a hard year - I'm hopeful for a fresh start with a fresh year!

This has been a good year for my family overall, but the worst year I've ever had in my life personally in terms of mental health. At one point, for awhile, I couldn't remember who I actually was without the crippling anxiety and depression. I've started therapy and it's going well so far so I am hopeful that 2019 will give me a clearer head and a way to cope with my anxiety.

Meh - My father passed away three weeks ago. I'm ready for the year to be over.

(((HUGS))) I'm so sorry for your loss.

I've had a pretty awesome year even given a few setbacks. I am truly blessed by a loving family and adoring husband and LOVE is all I require to love my life.

2018 started out pretty rough. My mom passed away the end of Feb after battling cancer for many years. But, since we know she's better off and in Heaven, we've been able to move forward easier.

We took an amazing vacation this Aug and made many wonderful family memories. We did have some close friends move away, which made things difficult (especially for my youngest since it was her best friend), but we were able to visit with them in Oct. AND, now they have moved back, so we get to reestablish those friendships again.
Nov I was slightly in a depressed state as I was feeling the loss of my mom as the holidays approached. I didn't think it would be bad until Dec, but Nov was bad. Moving closer to Christmas, it may get bad again, for now I am focusing on the memories and traditions to get me through.

I'm looking forward to 2019! I'm praying it's a much better year for our family. WE also have another amazing family vacation planned that we are all looking forward too!
