A look back, part one

Posted in: Uncategorized

I have reached the conclusion that 2008 has been one of my least favorite years in my life. Hey some are good and some are bad, but I think 2008 was a bench mark for me. It’s not that I’m saying it was all bad. It’s my least favorite because I’ve had a lot of difficult issues to face, and even when I had some wonderful moments they always seemed to be followed by something to offset the moment of good I was having.      Some call things like that Karma, some say god is testing me, some even say it has something to do with the sign I was born under! I’ve even been told of the great curse that someone has placed on me.        I’m here to say it out loud for the first time. It’s my own damn fault! I spent too much time moping around and throwing myself a year long pity party. It wasn’t until August I started to see it. It was then that I got to see my daughter after over a year. That was simply the best few days I’ve had in a very long time. Oh and I did have a great year on the radio, thanks to you all supporting my show and my efforts with the local music scene I’ve had one of my best years ever on the radio! And oh I did get to go home and visit my family for the first time in over 2 years. And damn I met a lot of new friends this year and re-connected with many old friends too. The Wings won the Stanley cup. Hey wait a minute, what am I thinking? I mean  sure I had a break up this year and I screwed up many times on a personal level, but does that make for a bad year?     Maybe I’m looking at this all wrong, I’ve really had a pretty good year, I met someone who I like a lot, I had all those good things happen, maybe the scales aren’t tilted so far the bad way after all.     Sure I’m broke all the time, but who hell isn’t these days. I spill food on new clothes all the time and that just makes me so mad. Michigan really sucked in Football too. But does any of that out weigh a Beautiful daughter, a great family, success at work and having found a lot of new friends and having a lot of great old friends? NO WAY. So thanks for all your support this year gang, cause it was you guys out there listening who made me get through the bad days and celebrate the good times. 2008 despite what the economy has done to my wallet, has been a pretty good year. But I’m not putting up another crappy football season for the Wolverines, once is enough boys! Merry Christmas to all of you and especially to my family and my beautiful Daughter Kyla!
