I grew up in Massachusetts and realized that in all my time here I had never gone to see the ice sculptures in person at Copley Plaza in Boston on New Years Eve. I decided it was about time I did! Here are some of the sculptures in all their glory:







Goodbye, 2012!

Hope you all have a wonderful New Year!

2012 was a great year for me both personally and professionally
but
it was hard for the positive to not be overshadowed when something horrible happened at the end of October:

my aunt died tragically/suddenly after being hit by a car, then being in a coma, then being taken off life support...

I had never dealt with something like that before.
Yes, I've had family pass away in the past but not in such an out of nowhere fashion. I had never been in a situation where I went to a hospital and talked to someone in a coma and wondered if they could actually hear me...

It's given me a different perspective on a lot of things and reminded me what is really important. Which is what I guess happens to all of us when we lose someone.

Life is short. Live it. Don't wait to do things. Make them happen. Let the people in your life know how much they mean to you. What other cliche line can I throw in here?

You get the point! :-)

Anyway,I hope you all had a fab 2012 and that 2013 is even better!
