~It Wasn't The Worst Year~

This year has brought many ups and downs for our family. Nothing too horrible happened so that is a good thing. 
We had Julian in 2016 and of course he has been a HUGE blessing to us! =)
We did have 2 people that lived with us that was tough, one of them is still here. Julian was admitted in the hospital for a bit from a urinary tract infection-another tough time for us. We were without a vehicle for 4 months which was really difficult too. Hurricane Matthew left us without power for 5 days-that was not fun.
We moved into the house we are in right now, which at the time was a big blessing since we were living with other people before then.
We are hoping and praying 2017 will be an even better year for us! But we do know ups and downs are a part of life and we all go through them. We are grateful for a roof over our heads, food to eat, clothes to wear and good health for the most part.
Hopefully they will fix the water issue at the new house so we can move in soon-we are so ready! We do know they started on the problem, we just don't know how long it will take to complete...
I hope all of my MyLot friends will have an amazing year in 2017!

2016 restored some peace and mental stability to me. I know that there are external things that people find disturbing, but in my heart I am a healthy person. Sure, I have a couple of health issues but nothing awful. We have been having and are still having transportation issues, but those are just mostly inconveniences. I am planning to have a good 2017.

@GardenGerty I am really glad that your feeling good inside, that's so important. =) I hope your transportation issues are fixed soon-I know that's not an easy situation.
I pray 2017 is a great year for you!
