farewell, 2010

I had started my annual year-in-review and annual year in pictures posts, but I didn’t get a chance to finish them. I’ve actually been pretty sick these last two days, with a weird stomach thing that turned into an unkillable migraine and I couldn’t stop throwing up. (It’s like when I was pregnant! Except this time I can’t say it will all be worth it! Bleh.) Paul took me to urgent care this morning, and after 2 1/2 hours in…

So my little jaunt to Orlando last week kinda messed me up. It was the only time we could go, working around both my and Beth’s schedules, but now I’m scrambling to catch up! I mentioned before that I was volunteering with a ministry to help coordinate some of the presents for local kids. One part of this was getting sponsors from our church – making an “angel tree” and setting it up at our church and making sure all…
