I’m sure I’m not the only one who is reflecting on 2019 as it comes to a close...
1. First of all, 2019 was definitely better than 2018 in the health area. I finished up my cancer treatment in May of this year. It really feels like so long ago. Sometimes it doesn’t seem like it really happened. I’m thankful everyday for modern medicine, my body’s ability to go through what I did, and that I was one year cancer-free on August 8. 😄
2. Andy and I made some changes to our ranch business this year. It was definitely a tough decision but I believe we did what’s best for our family. It’s nice having all of our ranch operation closer to home. 🐮
3. One of this year’s highlights is the closeness that I’ve developed with Abigail. I took a couple trips to San Luis Obispo to spend time with her and they were really great. I’m very grateful to have this amazing relationship. 🥰
4. J.T. getting his drivers license this fall has been so freeing for me. That might sound strange but it’s given me more flexibility with my schedule. I do miss chatting with him on the way to and from school, though. However, being able to drive has really helped Andy on the ranch. 🚜
5. My dad and I have tried to go to breakfast periodically this year. It’s been great to reconnect and talk about everything under the sun. Hope to do it more often in 2020. 🍳
6. My mom, my sister Mary, my cousin Alison, my Auntie Barb, and I met up in Calistoga for a girls’ food and wine trip in May. This was a celebration trip after all my treatments, but it was also a great bonding trip for my mom and I on the drive down. 🍷
7. Last but not least, I absolutely love my career path. I love going to the office everyday; I love my awesome team, and trying to help them grow, succeed, and be happy; I love being part of the Fortuna small-business community; and I love trying to make my business the best it can be. 🏡
Bring it on 2020– I know it will be awesome!
