New Year’s Challenge
Just a little reflection on 2020
10 things I did
Went the National Association of Music Merchants
Drove to the town I grew up in after 10 years of being gone
Tried online dating at met some great guys
Was a support frontline worker handling the overflow non-COVID med-surg patients so my co-workers could focus on the COVID patients
Lots of nature with treasured friends
Supported dear friends through COVID
Watched a dear friend enter into his first relationship
Became a sound technician at church as the pandemic forced us outside
Joined the professional governance at work
Got certified as a Rehabilitation Registered Nurse
Six amazing memories:
Way too many Zoom calls
Work bestie
Kayaking for the first time
Sister-sister trip to the UPR
Back in Brookings after ten years
The whole AV team
I would love to:
· Get my own apartment
· Graduate from my Masters
· Level up to clinical nurse C
· A start working in my preferred field
But like 2020 so rudely reminded us it’s whatever the Lord permits.
Starting the year looking fine...
A letter to someone I grew apart from
It’s odd. I feel like I grew closer to everyone this year.
But J & A,
I am jealous that you all got into relationships before me. Ya’ll are my best guy friends. You can’t do that! But the girls you found are amazing so I can’t even be mad.
Still love you both to bits,
Joneen
