The Muse's Year in Review - 2006

I have to be honest. 2006 hasn't been the crackerjack year I was hoping for. However, I do have high hopes for 2007 and I'd love to be able to look back on the 31st of December 2007 and be genuinely chuffed with all I've achieved and done. So let's take at look at the highs and lows of 2006:

The Highlights
  • Bought a really fab apartment overlooking Wellington Harbour. Best of all - no more gardening!
  • Perservered with my job and am now really enjoying it
  • Competed in a 10k race - ok so I nearly had a cardiac arrest but I did it...
  • Cut off a dysfunctional relationship when it would have been easy to continue
  • Wasn't as depressed over winter as I have been in previous winters
  • Befriended my blogging partner in crime Miss Ruby
  • Starting working on a major health issue
  • Found a great drug (not class A) that has cleared up my migraines signficantly
The Lowlights
  • Gained weight...heaps of weight
  • Not a huge amount of progress in sorting out my major health issue
  • Another failed relationship
  • Didn't train and get fit like I said I would
  • Took way too many sick days
  • Didn't save and take overseas trip as planned
  • 3 less friends - 2 who left town and 1 friendship that I chose to end
So yeah...not the greatest year on record. That title still goes to 1996 - that year rocked! But I'm feeling optimistic about all that's ahead and all that I'd like to, and the only way is up!!
