2012 - the highs, the lows

Postby RustyCage » Sun Dec 30, 2012 11:48 pm

So another year has come to an end, and I'm sure it had its ups and is downs. What has been your highlights of the year? What have been the lowlights?

My personal Top 3 highlights..
1. Birth of my daughter in August.
2. Buying a house in may.
3. Swans winning the flag... Very close to being number 2... Almost a tie.

low lights.
1. the side i coach getting eliminated from the finals
2. The Kurt Tippett saga ;)

Honestly one of the best years i've ever had... Hard to think of anything personally which i could classify as a lowlight.

lowlights, the depressed building sector, Central coming 4th, my son & daughter won't talk to each other,
highlights, placing my vending machines in schools, the building sector looks like it might be on the mend, discovering steroids.

My wedding day was this years biggest highlight.

Lows included the passing of 2 family members.

Then the low would be the exploration of the Marianas trench?

Highs - good time spent with family; good news with the health of family members; weekends away with the girlfriend in Albury, Sydney and Melbourne; seeing a lot of sport and live music

Lows - bad news with the health of family members; work not being as good as I'd hoped; another bad year for Port Adelaide; the constant uncertainty in my life
