Dear 2008…
The saying goes that if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. Well, I’m breaking that rule. You, 2008, were not my friend.
I had such high hopes for us. The year started with such joy and expectation. I thought this would be the best year yet. Oh, how wrong I was.
All you brought were tears and heartache. There were hopes dashed, friends lost and every day new grief to bear. I watched some dear friends suffer during your reign and for that, I can never forgive you.
Don’t try to make excuses for yourself. They will get you nowhere with me. I wish one day you could see all the damage you’ve done but I know that cold heart of yours is impermeable. I am through with you.
I hope our paths never cross again.
Robin
Dear 2009…
Hello you sexy thang! How are you doing? Got any exciting plans for us over these next 12 months? Any where you want to go? Any wrongs you’d like to make right?
I’ve got a bag full of wishes from my friends (and a few for myself) if you’d like to discuss them over a candlelit dinner. I know just the place too. Soft, quiet, relaxing…just like you. Oh, I know you hate compliments and I can see you’re blushing but my heart is racing just thinking about all the possibilities you have to offer.
Please don’t let me down like others before you. I don’t believe my heart could take it.
But deep down, I know you are a different kind of year. I know we can really go places. Make dreams come true. Turn frowns around!
XOXOXOXOX

I've not spoken to anyone who has to many good things to say about 2008. Some good things did happen and I am thankful. Hello 2009! Love, Mom
