Goodbye 2011

Today is my last day of work before the new year. It is very quiet around here and I'm probably one of about ten people who didn't take this week off. Having The Sickness traveling around our house depleted my vacation time pretty quickly. Luckily, everyone seems to finally be feeling better and we'll have a nice long weekend to spend together.

I've spent a lot of time this week thinking about this past year. So much has happened:

• Harper was born
• #HarperSnugglesTweetUp
• Donated breast milk for a family that adopted a baby
• BlogLove Conference
• Harper started a blog  :)
• My father-in-law Dave had LVAD surgery and then a stroke
• MN Slumber Party - met new lovely bloggy friends
• onset of PPD and anxiety
• Wrote a blog post about postpartum anger and got huge response
• Tree fell in our yard and took out our power lines
• Dave's LVAD failed and had to be replaced
• MNBlogCon
• #BlueBloggers
• Participated in Stomp Out Stigma (at work) 
• Five year wedding anniversary
• I Am Angry post about Penn State and my abuse past
• Interview on the 10pm news about being a child sexual abuse survivor
• You Make Me Brave post becomes Editor's Pick on BlogHer
• Added BlogHer ads to blog to raise funds for abuse prevention
• New boss at work
• Probably lots of other things that I forgot about...LOL

My wish for 2012 is that it is much less eventful than 2011. So many good things happened but I'm just fine with things being a little boring around here.

Love you guys very much. Thanks for all of the support and love that you've given me this year.
