Could this year just END already?!!

[aephi alum]

This year has been nothing but hell for me and mine.

- My husband's great-aunt died
- I got laid off
- My husband's company cancelled raises
- A 200-year-old oak tree took out a good chunk of my parents' house and nearly killed them, my husband, and me

And just this morning, on my way to work, I lost control of my car and am now looking at a $3600+ repair bill. (Thankfully, I am unhurt, and well insured!)

At midnight next Tuesday, I will be saying, not "Happy New Year", but "Thank God it's over!"

I know there are people out there who have had a much rougher year than I've had, but still... ugh.

Hope you all had a better 2002 than I did, and here's to a better 2003
