New year

The holidays have passed.  I spent them mostly eating various roasts and celebrating several birthdays.  There’s one more birthday coming up that I’m eagerly anticipating.  My sister is expecting her second child sometime in the next few weeks.  I can’t wait to have another nephew or niece.

2009 was a complex year.

It started with moving to a new state, a new city, and a new job.  Today is my one year anniversary at my current job.  I’ve learned a lot, and hope that a year from now I’ll be celebrating two years of programming in an airport hangar.  For the next year, I hope to get a few software development certifications, increase my income with my side consulting business, and finish development on a few for-profit projects I have begun.

Christina and I have gone through a lot this year too.  We purchased a house together, we adapted to living in a smaller town, and we got engaged.  The wedding is being planned for late September 2010 and will probably be located near Crisfield, MD.  Our house is coming along and we’re still putting on some of the finishing touches, including painting our bedroom near-black.  Aside from planning and hosting a fun and unique wedding, I think I’ll have plenty to do around the house to get to a point where we feel “finished” with moving in.
