I admit, I realize that 2017 had its share of difficulties (I'm looking at you politics) but for me, personally, 2017 was a pretty solid year for me. I mean, come on- I fulfilled a lifelong dream, we adopted 2 perfect kitties that have undoubtedly consumed my life (as well as my camera phone memory), I celebrated 5 years living in LA, and so much more. It was pretty good. Prettay prettay good. However, all the gifts and experiences I had in 2017 have only made me excited to see what 2018 has in store! So let's do this! Here's to a year filled with more exciting opportunities and dreams being fulfilled :)
