And I'm very tenuously holding onto any semblance of financial stability. Still a Ready Reserve, still working the second job occasionally, actually took on a third job with a temp agency getting menial day jobs whenever available. And I broke an airplane.
...
It still feels like a bad dream I just can't wake up from. I broke an airplane. I ran into the side of an aircraft with a bag cart and busted a $58,000 piece of equipment on the side of the plane. I'm on probation. I still have my job, but I'm on probation.
2014 probably ended up being the hardest year of my life. I can't imagine 2015 being worse unless someone dies or something. I'm optimistic that won't be happening.

Anyway, enough about me. I have an actual New Year's Resolution this year, sort of! And I'm keeping it so far!
I've resolved to do this:
I've wanted to read more for a while, and I figured this would be as good an excuse to get me going as any. So I'm a month into it, and I've read six books! Well, I finished one on New Year's Day, but still!
So what I've decided is this: I'm going to actually update this blog as I finish each book. Being six books in, I've got six book reviews/meditations to do to get caught up. I don't have the time to get started on that quite yet, but I'll be getting to it as soon as I have some time.
It's nice to be actually accomplishing something. Heh.
