The year in review:

First off, when you were in school, did you stop counting to 10 at the number 9? No, you went to 10. So the decade isn't over. A decade is over, 1999 to 2009 but not 2000 to 2010.

OK, so long story short, year started scary with "lets hope we don't all lose our jobs". Most everybody I work with lost their job in Feb, Mandy got rehired 3 weeks later under a different contract company. We were told at work that we'd have rolling layoffs (oh boy). Mandy's grandmother passed away in March at the age of 95. We went to Disney on our first rolling layoff. We did a huge chunk of landscaping in May and dug a 50' ditch 2' deep during one of these times off. We visited WV more this year than any other thanks to the rolling layoffs. We went on a cruise in July thanks to another layoff, Hawaii in August, Disney in October then Disney again in December. All in all not a bad year honestly. If somebody offers you a job and says we'll cut your pay by 10% but give you 7 weeks off no harm, no foul and still have 2 additional weeks paid vacation and 3 personal days...consider it, you just may find it worth it.
