It's the end of a decade, but I don't remember all the things that happened within the last ten years.
This year has been the third in a row which was financially a disaster, and I've given up hope for that to get better any time soon.

However, a lot of positive things have happened, for which I am grateful.

I joined h2g2, made many friends, improved my English, achieved things I never thought I would.

My sons are adults now and are wonderful, loving sons who'll make their way, no doubt.

I'm willing to let them go because I know they know that I'm always here for them should they need me.

They're healthy young men who don't drink, smoke or take other drugs, who aren't criminals or cause trouble in whatever way. They love me and they're not afraid to say so and show me. I think I must have done something right, so that is probably my greatest achievement.

So, finances aside, I'm a very lucky woman, and I'm very grateful for all the things I mentioned above.

I'll raise a smiley - bubbly to that. May all my friends be as lucky as I am, and may you all have a good 2010! smiley - bubbly

Another friend I had the privilege of meeting in person (I should probably stop naming everybody I 'met in the flesh' because I met so many of my friends on here).

Have a good 2010! smiley - bubbly

Bel, raising loving sons to be proud of is the biggest achievement of my life too. Anything else pales in to insignificance. No career can touch it in my eyes.

I wish you a more prosperous and healthy year in 2010 and look forward to more chats on (and off) h2g2.

smiley - bubbly Best of luck to everyone in the new year.

Having nothing to boast about in the life-accomplishments arena, I'd just say that I'm happy to be warm, dry, well-fed and pain-free today - and hope that everybody else is the same.smiley - winkeye
