so tell us how its been for you.

for me 2007 was the worst year of my 25+ years i been alive

my grandmother died in Febuary. Not knowing that the last time i saw her was going to be my last.

Walked out side and seeing my old neighbor dead over her big flower pot( i still can not get over that)

my best friend growing up, mike. mom passed away. had a illness where she would fall asleep randomly. well she had to use oxygen. dint have it on when she fell asleep and couldnt breath and got brain damaged. was in a coma untill she died a few days later
 
Hmmm mine has been somewhat shocking aswell.

My life took a downward Spiral at the beginning of the year and stayed that way for most of it....

My Nephew Died in utero just an hour before birth which crushed our close family unit to a point it will never be the same again.

Two days after that a close family friend was crushed by a tree throwing him into a coma (which he is still in) and making him a quadraplegic.

On the better side the last month has been awesome for me, im finding things i never though i could find again and learning that despite what i think I am an ok person :)
 
ditto,

my cat died,a friends daughter died of cancer and then six weeks later their son(the girls hubby )accidently burned the house down and was killed,the dog ate eves underwear and had a very expensive operation,i stood in mud up to my knees all summer,i got ill myself,and the trikes off the road,financial difficulties all around.

i too am looking forward to the end of this year.2008 has got to be better
 
Best year ever.

Got back from Iraq in approximately one piece
Got out of the Marine Corps
Finally got to live with my wife, as oppoesed to our first 1.5 years of marriage when we saw each other for about 52 days
And should be a daddy before the year is out :D
 
Well so far 2007 sucks.

It really started last December, I got arrested. At work, in front of EVERYONE I worked with AND it was during shift change! Then, my sister and my ex had a baby together. I got into a bad accident and totaled my car. Had to have 3 surgeries. Can't find a decent man to save my life. You know, the usual!


But I'm looking on the bright side of things. 2008 is BOUND to be better!

'07 has been better than other years. 05 saw me getting laid off of 5 separate jobs.

07 saw my first traffic accident in 6 years, bought a house though! w00t! Got to travel to Texas for the first time and had a blast on the highways and while I was down there drinkin.
 
my 2k7 was pretty good! saw my family alot more this year which has been nice. even got to have Thanksgiving for the first time in about 3 years with them...they live in Virginia btw whereas i live in Indiana. met lots of cool people from all over the country and even from Canada at a bunch of car and truck shows during the summer. they were all cool as hell as to hang out with and cant wait to catch up with them this summer. oh and i bought a new-to-me car...2004 Mazda 3 which is an awesome car!!

thats about it! pretty good year i think!
 
I can't complain about my 2007yr thus far. I think I have had a pretty good yr. Sorry to hear about those of you that have had a bad one. I hope in the yr 2008 everything gets better for you.
 
2007 was a mixed one for me. Got dumped 3 times (twice by the same girl - that was fun), but got a new job. Got a new car. Met some well interesting people. So on the whole not too bad. Next year should be fun. Could be moving to a new pub as Landlord where I get to pick my own beers and all that!!!!:rockon:
 
One of my cats got attacked/mauled by a dog and almost died. Luckily he didn't die, but now he won't go more than 5' past the house.

Lost my job of 7 years because of a POS new boss that came in and took credit for my work, making me look like I wasn't doing my job. :mad

Lost 2 friends, who I thought were my best friends, in the process of losing my job. One took my job out from under me, and didn't warn me .. great friends these 2. :mad

Got screwed out of $750 from said job also; still in limbo trying to get that sorted out. Doesn't look good for me getting it either. All I can say, is always sign a contract for everything you do .. no matter how stupid it seems to do at the time.

Started a new job after being jobless for a couple months. Job is very labor intensive, and I'm totally not used to it. I come home daily worn completely out, my legs hurt, my feet hurt, and my back is killing me.

Found a great BF .. thought he was the one .. turns out he wasn't. Broke up with me for being angry at him for the last 3 months of the relationship; because I felt he wasn't spending enough time with me anymore and kept bringing it up, and it was driving me crazy.

I had lost 20lbs, but after the stress I've been under for the last 3 months I've gained 10 of it back, and that stresses me out too because now some of the new clothes I bought don't fit right anymore.

I go to school full time too, and so far even though it has been stressing me out to high heaven .. I struggle to maintain my 4.0 GPA. It's nearly killing me .. the amount of effort I've had to put in to achieve it.

My grandmother won't cooperate either. She's got congestive heart failure and is supposed to keep her feet elevated, else her legs swell and retain fluid. She also burned her leg pretty badly.
She had to live with us until recently .. and I was in between rooms. Let me tell you, you'll never know how frustrating that is until you've tried it. Clothes in one room, sleep in another .. and get up for work before everyone else .. jeeeeeeeze. I don't like people moving/touching my things .. and that alone nearly sent me over the edge.

She just got out of the hospital again .. as it looks .. she maybe be moving here permanetly soon. And I dunno if I can take it again. I may have to move, and I'm not ready to.


I agree Haus .. 2007 .. has sucked major donkey balls.

In a word. AWESOME!

My son is doing so much better than they originally thought he would.

My daughter is graduating and has some pretty nice goals planned for her future. (At the moment she says she want to become a Doctor. I don't know if she will be able to stick out that much school, but I will support her all the way what ever she decides.)

My husband and I are still in love like we were when we were young'uns and we've been together 19 years now.

My brother and sisters and I have rekindled our relationships and are now closer than we ever were growing up.

My Niece graduated and is a full fledged veterinarian now and is able to work under the corporate umbrella of Pet Smart so she is gaining surgical experience and able to learn from other vets who have years of experience.
She plans on opening her own practice within the next few years and when she does I am going to be her veterinary assistant. (Who would have thought I would work for my niece?! lol)

My Mother is doing okay in spite of a few health scares.

My hubbies family will be coming to visit us from Hawaii soon.

I feel blessed and it's just getting even better!
 
I got to see some of my bestest friends twice :) (once in NYC and once at my casa)

I quit working with David after 3 years... bittersweet I guess... it was time...

I started a new job, where I'm important... and they tell me so....

My godson was born, and he is great.. healthy...and I lubs him...

And, I met a great guy.. great... great.. great...


Ups and downs, but its ending on a pretty good note over all
