Dear 2013 – thanks for
everything but no offense, I think I’m ready for you to go. Age 27 in the year 2013 it’s just not
good. And so while there has been
a fair amount of blue-ness this year, there have also been many a wonderful
highlight.
And so…2013 in review:
January
It’s for Lovers
people! I still think this! I turn 27 in San
Francisco. Fabulous low key
birthday, even if 27 wasn’t my favorite.
I have some funky
moments and we get rid of
cable (Still don’t have it!)
February
We slowly but surely
recover from the holidays. I
rejoice in a clean house and watch the superbowl. We lose a very special
little boy from this world. I
start focusing on the little lights
in my life. I Valentined…I
know…me, my Grinch heart is growing.
March
Work
gets really really hard – I vent a bit about it... I reminisce about being in Germany! I write about why I think people should
go to “church” And I write possibly my most important
post about why having a legal
marriage means something to me.
And the response
blows me out of the water and restores my faith in humanity.
April
I start the self
betterment project in this month (and FAILED miserably!) We have a beautiful Easter
celebration. We go to New
York and I fill my soul with music and park pretzels and Itailan food and
family! I go swimming
and find a piece of myself.
May
We go to Morrow
Bay and I remember how lucky I am to have amazing friends! I stop sleeping (I’m pretty sure this is becoming a bi-annual event) SP GETS A NEW JOB! I GET A NEW JOB! We are officially crazy.
June
June kind of slips away from me this year. And at
the end of June REALLY
momentous things happened in California.
July
And
then it was July (I’m working 2 jobs at this point…) I win the Liebster
award and in the process meet some really amazing women on the interwebs! We also get married again this month
(and have a marriage license to prove it!)
August
Glory Hallelujah we have
survived the summer (more or less)
I take a few days
off to celebrate! We go to San
Diego so that I can regain some of my sanity and get some big hugs from my
parents.
September
In September I reveal to you
how much I want Babies
and how hard it is.
October
I tell you a little bit
about how we celebrated our 1
YEAR Anniversary and then went to Utah for a weekend! My Iphone
tells you what’s really up. We
went to a Renaissance Faire and a new
beautiful niece joined the family!
November
We took the annual trip to
the Apple
orchards with SP’s family and hung out with a little monkey and his mom’s
for Halloween. And another baby
joined our adopted family! (And I
want to eat him right up) We also
celebrate SP’s birthday and go to the Day of the Dead! And I eat some bluehoo
cheese.
December
I tell you about our super
fast 72hr thanksgiving in San Diego, seeing
Mackelemore and Ryan Lewis, and getting into the Christmas spirit. And I talk about Lighting Up the
Dark!
And we’re officially full
circle.
I haven’t really wrapped my
head around 2014 yet but I think my biggest focus is going to be on being brave
this year. Because I think being
brave can really encompass it all.
Brave people are strong enough to be kind to others because they are
secure in themselves. Brave people
are happy because they don’t focus on fear or sadness. Brave people change the world because they
take risks. Brave people have
sadness and hard times but they know how to work past it. So I think this year, this is the year
for Bravery.
So in 2014, my friends, I
wish you joy and love and light.
But most importantly – I urge you to go out there and be bold, be kind,
be courageous, BE BRAVE! You
deserve it, and the world deserves the brave you.
Be Brave!
Love to you all!
Sarah
