8th Annniversary at my job!!!!

I can't believe it: 8 years with this company. I would never have envisioned being with them that long, but I have been. I have seen alot of changes take place and I have seen alot of people come and go over the past 8 years. I was going over some of the things that have happened during those 8 years. Here are a few.

1. I have gained 3 more grandchildren
2. Mike and I got married
3. I have obtained my Associates Degree in Accounting
4. Went thru 9/11 with the rest of our country
5. I have lost 4 family members, 2 very dear long-time friends and several other friends
6. I have met alot of wonderful people at work and away from work. I am fortunate to have
a number of great relationships with people I work with.
7. Mike and I have paid for our trailer and have purchased the land it is on(still paying for it
of course. lol)
8. I have my dream car; a 2001 Sebring convertible, gold w/black cloth top. We are both
really enjoying it.
9. We just got Mike a good truck this year. 1996, red, F-350 Ford, turbo diesel with dual
cab and utility bed.
10. I have been thru a lot of personal growth and have much more confidence in myself than
I used to have. I have also learned to be much more accepting of myself.
11. I have done a lot of traveling. Numerous cross-country trips to see Lisa and her family. A
number of trips to New Mexico to see my mom while she was still living.
12. Our family held it's first Family Reunion.

I could go on and on, but I think I hit the major points.

I received a very good evaluation this year. My supervisor took me to lunch(we always get an
anniversary lunch) and it was very enjoyable. Mike and I went out to celebrate last night and had a wonderful, relaxing evening.

I would like to thank everyone that has been part of my life, especially these past 8 years, since that what this post is about.

Now, on with the next 8 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like a good 8 years to me!!! I love to look back (especially when I'm feeling a little discouraged) and see just how far I've come in this area or that. It is amazing what you have accomplished. I'm glad you're keeping a journal/log/whatever so that you can be spurred on for the next 8 years by reviewing what you've done in the last 8. YEAH!!!!
