So, what was the highlight of 2010 for you?

For me, it was the Giants finally winning the World Series.

At the risk of sending this to PARF...the results of the 2010 Congressional election and the message delivered.

Walked into a telephone pole while ogling some young girls. Was out for about 5 minutes and had the best dreams ever.

The birth of my only son in March, Wife hit 160% of her sales quota in a single qtr (Q4), I hit critical Biz Dev goals setting up 2011 to be huge for family biz, Giants win WS, didn't lose any close family members!

Not a bad year 2010, frustrating at times - immensely rewarding too, discovered being a parent again @ 40 is much, much more physically demanding/harder then in my 20s...

Highlight...? HAHAHAHAHA

I started going to church back in February. Volunteered for service there in August and have been working the light show for the worship bands since then.

I was baptized in September and then got married in November to the most amazing woman I have ever known. Became a step-father to her two kids (19 yr-old male, who attends college, and an 11 yr-old daughter).

All this, in addition to getting back in touch with most of my family, whom I have been estranged from since 2000 and even re-connecting with my most awesome daughter, who earned her Masters Degree in Anthroplogy from the Univ. of Chicago, back in August.

All in all, 2010 has been prolly the BEST year of my life!!!

Randy

Some educational stress regarding two of my children is greatly reduced as they are doing much better. Step dad in law beat serious odds and is alive. No one in the family has poor health. Career is doing very well. Economically we weathered the recession and even increased income in 2010. All in all, a fantastic year!

I feel very fortunate.

I'm very likely to reach my **75th ** birthday on the fourteenth of this month. Family is in good, but aging, health!

Best,
Tom

Kept our jobs, no one that I personally know died. An uneventful, but good year.

I'm mostly done with my prepharm requirements, got a real job, took up rock climbing and have made some awesome new friends, got my SCUBA certification, nearly died, turned my 944 into a "well prepared 944" and became a better autocrosser. Bought a track car project....


I've not had much free time this year, but its been one helluva year..

Congrats on the millstone mossguy.
2010 was tough, my house burned in Feb, it was rebuilt and we moved in during Oct. My sister in law was diagnosed with breast ca and was treated successfully. My brother, 51 recently had a pretty severe heart attack but the prognosis is good.
All in all it was a year of setbacks and then triumphs, I have much to be thankful for.
Things in general are pretty good given the challenges my family has faced this year.
Now if I can get the P cars rear wheel bearings finished I am looking forward to a drive to celebrate the passing of 2010, good riddance.
