Divine 2009

I saw so many news stories talking about how aweful 2009 was, but I don't think it was that bad. So, here is my own What was Devine in 2009 list:

* I became the proud owner of a master's degree!!!!!
* I got a good job! with benefits! Finally!
* The financial sitation (for me at least) is getting better
* Chrissy's wedding
* Even more time spent with my adorable niece and newphews
* Everyone in my family that was alive at the begining of the year is still alive. (and yes..after
2008 that is a notable blessing)
* I now have a pretty Laptop!
* I was the recipient of a Stephanie Original Birthday Cake
* presents and drawings from Leanna
*Timmy, Justin, and Jacob hugs
*Sinful excursions to Michael's, AC Moore, and Starbucks
* Having things change for the better
* Shopping trips with Mom and Steph spent laughing so hard my stomach hurt and my eyes
welled up with tears
*Being the first person to interview for the aforementioned job and pretty much knowing it was
mine from that point on.
* Only having to go on 3 interviews before landing a job
*Figuring out how to hang shelves on my plaster walls....and they're still firmly attached 6
months later!!!!
