One year and counting
I’ve officially lived in Music city for one year. While catching up with this guy, we began talking about the highlights of the last year. This is a good exercise for me, because I’m great at focusing on the negative. So here, in no particular order, are the highlights of my year in the Buckle of the Bible Belt.
Met this family while working as a waitress
Positive time in Gering for Christmas
2 Predators Hockey games (free)
Michael Buble concert (free)
I sort of managed a band
Bought a t-shirt and started hugging everyone
Became a member at City Church of East Nashville
Celebrated Chinese New Year with friends I met in China
The hammock underneath the apple tree in my backyard
Two visits to see kin in Mississippi

Finally found a “real” social work job
