Lots of ups and downs:

I was employed at the start of 2011 after being out of work for close to 2 years. Then, I was laid off again in July. I'm still looking for work and am set to make a complete career change come the New Year.

My husband, on the other hand, had a MUCH better year business-wise than 2010, which was a godsend when I lost my job this summer. Going forward, things look good for him.

My mom finally sold her house in FL and is up here living in PA near us full-time.

We lost two relatives in November: My husband's uncle died suddenly on the 8th, and 2 days before Thanksgiving we lost my father-in-law (brother of said uncle) to colon cancer. My father passed away 4 years ago in November as well, so needless to say it's not our favorite month. Fortunately, everyone else in the family seems to be doing well health-wise.

Hopefully 2012 will be filled with many more ups than downs!

This summer is when I received my scholarship for the New York Film Academy and my family and I made the decision to move to NYC next Fall. So, I'm definitely hoping and praying that 2012 is our year!
