2005 in review

9:15 pm on Sunday, January 1, 2006

In 2005 we:

  • My son joined the Young Marines and went to ‘Boot Camp‘.
  • Went to New Hampshire for a week on a job search(still want to move and waiting for the right job to come up)
  • I joined the Texas Land Rover Club and became V.P. of the local chapter.
  • Took the truck to North Texas for some real offroading.
  • Took our son to the Blue Angels for the first time.
  • Tried to go to Iraq.
  • Went to Louisiana after Katrina to help out survivors. Weirdly enough both the best and most depressing time of the entire year.
  • Spent a few weekends on Padre Island. One of my favoritest places around.
  • Brushed up on my home improvement skills by installing a kitchen in a friend’s house.
  • Took a trip to Disney World with friends and family for my 35th birthday.

And finally, got laid off the week before Christmas. Ruining what was, I think, going to be one of my best years alive. I still say it was one of my better years. Now, if I can manage to find a job in the next week or so and we’ll try again this year.
