This year has been a roller coaster ride, some good, some bad. (I mean personally. 2016 as an overall year can get lost)

BUT! In the last 48 hours I snagged some good news. First, I have been working on losing weight since April.

As of yesterday I am down 50 pounds. WHEE!

AND as of TODAY, I am gainfully employed after almost a year of unemployment. At a good job! At a salary I was never expecting!

So those are the warm fuzzies in a sea of suck. Go fuzzies!

WOOOO! Congratulations! Can I ask what the new job is?

Congrats! ^^

50 pounds? Good work, keep at it and you will get where you want to get.

An gg on the job.

Order processing tech for Walgreens. I've done pharmacy work my whole life so this isn't anything new to me, except a higher salary and voluntary overtime.

Congratulations! I'm glad to hear that there's still some light in this gloomy year.

Congrats on the new job! Hope 2017 is a better year for you

Thank you so much, everyone!

In that spirit, may 2017 rock for all of you in return! And have a kitten in a mug of cocoa.
