2010 Recap

I don't know if I'll have time to write on here again before the year ends, so I'll do a quick recap now.

First of all, happy holidays and I hope everyone has had a good year. :)

2010 has been a pretty busy year for me. I started working again on Jan 4th, 2010, the first Monday of the year. Since then I've invested enormous amounts of time and effort there to rise up as fast as possible and increase my earning potential. I was promoted in February as the lead of my department on my shift.

While working there I met Pete, my former manager. It was great to work with a person of wisdom like him, who allowed me to grow and was open to new ideas. As a team under his leadership I feel like we could accomplish any task. He quit in the beginning of November, but I still talk to him frequently as a good friend and business partner.

With Pete's departure, I was again promoted again and given full control of my department during all hours of operation. I now work with a lot more people, and it is rewarding but also draining. There are some exciting projects coming up in the future that I am looking forward to taking charge on.

I'm now trying to get enrolled in college, as well as a gym membership to get in shape. I made a promise to myself to try to get into the Air Force, with or without support from anyone. I've worked for a year, and I can't put this off any longer.

As far as family goes, I haven't seen Crystal or Eric in person since July. I miss them both so much. :( I hope I can get in the Air Force and we can live together, and if I end up not being able to get in, that my tenure at my current job would be good enough on my resume to get a good job in Kansas to be with my family.

It's 6 days from Christmas, but it feels nothing like it to me. Normally this is one of my favourite times of the year, but this time around, it just hurts so much knowing that I'm missing my son's first Christmas, and that he still doesn't have his father there to see him grow up. It's amazing how fast this year has seemed to move. Honestly though, I don't know anymore that Crystal has any feelings left for me. I sincerely hope I am wrong, but if I'm not then I'll just have to keep doing my best to send money to help support Eric, and try to visit him any chance I have. I'll still try to get into the Air Force to serve my county and give my son a better life. I love him and his momma more than life itself.

I've rambled on long enough. I need to get back to filling out stuff for college.

Best wishes to everyone, have a happy new year!
