2009 in Review

I can't believe it's already 2010.
What happened to 2009?

This stuff:
rang in the new year
met 2 Canadian mounties while on vacation in Mazatlan
got sucked into Facebook
started knitting again; got sucked into Ravelry
reconnected with someone I hadn't seen since 1990
my maternal grandmother died; she was well over 100 years old
moved to NYC
went to Atlantic City for the first time
went on my second cruise
got sea sick for the second time
25th high school reunion
got a great deal on a KitchenAid mixer
enjoyed a quiet Christmas
prepared to ring in the new year

You know that new McDonald's commercial? The one with the young woman rapping in a van? If not, here it is:




She's a violinist and lives in my new neighborhood; there was a story about her and the making of the commercial in today's paper. Nice to see fun, inspiring articles for a change!

Happy New Year

And what a lovely way to ring it in:
an Alvin Ailey performance, followed by dinner at this place. Stayed away from the Times Square mele.

Welcome 2010.
