Um… hello! It’s been quite a while since I posted here. As I was thinking on how my 2020 went, I realized I never put together a Year in Review for 2019. I know it’s something I don’t have to do, but I’ve always liked having a recap for myself.
Saying Goodbye
Unfortunately, my 2019 started with saying goodbye as a high school friend unexpectedly passed away. It happened 6 months after we coincidentally ran into each other and talked about catching up. Unfortunately, we never did, so I missed my chance.
Part way through the year, I also lost one of my uncles to cancer. He was the oldest sibling on my dad’s side, one of the kindest people I knew, and a supportive rock to the family. Though it was a sad occasion, it was also nice to see so much of my extended family.
Both were wake up calls to keep in touch better, something I’ve always been bad about. I ended up meeting up with several former coworkers who I had not seen in a while, but I had been meaning to catch up with. My cousins and I also talked about traveling to meet up more (which of course, got ruined by 2020).
