So with the new year, it’s only a given that there would be a review of the past year. I would have to say, in general, 2010 was a pretty blah year. I mean it had its ups and downs, but overall, only most of the bad things of the year have been remembered by myself. The Space Needle fireworks were better than last years for sure.

I do have to say, however, it has also been just a bit over a year and a half since I’ve received my kidney transplant and things are looking good in that department. However, it’s been offset by all the problems I’ve been having because of diabetes complications. And I do want to admit that my diabetes is not normal for most diabetics. I have the “malignant” diabetes as my doctor calls it. It’s like my diabetes has caused everything possible that can happen to a diabetic to happen. Good times I say.

To focus on the good, the Seahawks have won the division title. They even broke the record of winning the division and having a losing record. I say go Hawks! Sure, they might be considered the best of the worst, but hey, they’re the best at something, right? Good times, for sure. I Really hope they go on to win the Superbowl. And kudos to Charlie Whitehurst.

2010 was also the year I got pancreatitis. Man, I don’t wish this on my worst enemy. I would have to say it’s the worst thing that’s ever happened to me. I thought I knew what pain was, but this was exceedingly the worst. I also had what’s known as DKA or Diabetic Ketoacidosis. I just want to say this is a very deadly situation and people have been known to die from these conditions. I think someone is Really watching out for me and I’m pretty sure I’ve used about 5 of my 9 lives. Hopefully I don’t use any more. I don’t need to do that to Meesh. It could also be my karma too. I must have had some serious fun in my prior lives. I want to go on record to say that it’s not Really worth it. Be good to others, and most importantly, treat others as you would treat yourself.

Here’s hoping 2011 is a better year. New Year’s resolutions? Well, it’s not Really a resolution, it’s more a lifestyle. I just want to make a difference in other people’s lives in a good way. I think that should be what everyone strives to do. And also to make my own life more enjoyable. I think everyone should strive to do that too. How about you?
