Happy New Year!
Dec 31, 2012
As we say good-bye to 2012, let’s take a moment to remember it.
In retrospect, 2012 was good to me.
I did have 3 days of vacation for a quick trip to Las Vegas with the family.
We rescued a dog that my in-laws are “watching” for us (I think they’re keeping him).
Bubby
I’ve settled into my new job at TheBus.
I gained almost 20 pounds.
We bought a new (used) car.
Ran into Mike in Waipio the other day at lunch.
Ran into TwoFish just yesterday and TwoFish wishes all the MLCers a Happy New Year.
That’s about all I can think of right now…
How about you? How did 2012 treat you? What were some of your highlights? Or lowlights? What are your plans for 2013? Goals? Resolutions? Share your thoughts with us. Or just wish everyone a HNY.

Good morning Sally & all you MLCers!
I will not be sorry to see 2012 go – it was a hard year. 13 is my lucky number, so I’m looking forward to 2013.

My office moved, and me with it. Now back at the family house after 30 years of leaving it.
Didn’t gain 20lbs like you did…but now sporting 3XL instead of 2XL

2012 was a very inteesting year – workwise..
Highlight of this year:
1. Chaperoned 3 students to Japan.. all expenses paid trip to Japan for one week. I must admit.. did have to think about it, although everyone said it was a no-brainer. But I had visions getting lost on the train. Long story short- students did know their language and we never got lost. Want to go explore more of Japan.
2. Daughter was married in July- beautiful wedding. Glad its over, she was a bridezilla for a while. I pitied her husband to be at the time, lol!!
Peace, Love, and Happiness to all for a Happy New Year 2013!!

Good afternoon MLCers
Happy New Year’s Eve 
I’m happy to say goodbye to 2012. It was our most difficult year ever
On 6/23/12 our son totalled his 3 week old 1000 Ninja Kawasaki bike and was injured that motorcycle accident. He required surgery to reset a dislocated right thumb and more than a month of occupational therapy to get his hand to work properly again. The surgeon is still checking his hand periodically to ensure it is healing properly. More than $30K in medical bills and 3 months to recover. On 12/16/12, he got into another motorcycle accident on his used 1000 Suzuki Motorcycle, another $2K in bike repairs but fortunately he was not injured in that accident. That bike’s tire was defective and it spun out and threw him off the bike. Again his full bike gear spared him any injury. I think I aged 10 years this past year worrying about him. It took 3 months for him to heal properly. Then my mother-in-law died on 9/25/12. We’re hoping for an uneventful 2013. KAN I was born on the 13th and 13 is my lucky number too. Am looking forward to a better 2013 for all of us

I only gained 10 pounds, but it feels like 20.
Changes at work were rough, but I survived.
Car had some issues that needed fixing. $$
Couple of medical issues, but all is fine now.
By the end of the year things were so much better.
Wishing everyone a happy and prosperous year. I know it will be a good one for me.
