2014, You Were Good To Me

Well, it's that time of the year again...the time when everything comes to an end. 2014 went by at lightning speed, but it was SUCH an amazing year for me. I can't believe it! I accomplished some really important life goals this year and was fortunate in many ways. It kind of makes me nervous for 2015 because I don't know if I can have as much luck and good fortune as I did this year again, but that's the pessimist in me coming out.

Here is a look back at the year - favorite outfits, special moments, important achievements, etc. that made this year so special.

Last Christmas

This is the outfit I wore last Christmas, but never got a chance to photograph. I was actually supposed to wear this dress two Christmases ago, but it showed up in my mailbox a couple of days after Christmas, so I didn't get to wear it then. I love it because it's comfortable, a good shade of red, and it's long-sleeved. I can rarely find a good long-sleeved dress, especially for Christmas with the limited color options.

We have so many cookies in our apartment, it's unbelievable. I don't know how we're going to eat them all. I still have a couple of friends to exchange presents with, so maybe when we have our gathering I'll put some cookies out and make them help us eat them...lol.

It's still crazy to think that this year is almost over. It went by insanely fast. It feels like it was just spring to me. The summer and fall feel like a blur. And now winter is here, but it doesn't feel like it lately. It's been in the 50s. It was in the 50s on Christmas...in New England. I'm not complaining, but that doesn't mean it's not strange.

I love these gold shoes, but they are not easy to walk in. They are super slippery and they are at the upper limits of heel height that I can tolerate. It sucks because they are awesome for a night out or for a special occasion, but I could never spend a night dancing in these or something like that.

Now that Christmas is all done, there's just New Year's to look forward to. My friends and I always get together for it, and this year we are going to one of their houses to have a small-ish party. I'm excited for it. A lot of people don't really like New Year's Eve, but I enjoy it. I never put too much pressure on myself to do something different in the new year. I usually just have a couple of goals that I like to try to accomplish during the year. I never really have a resolution. On one hand, it's a good time to try to make a change because it's like a clean slate, but on the other hand I don't think anyone needs a new year to change something for the better. If there's room for improvement or if there's a change that needs to be made then do it! Change can happen anytime, as it should.
