Best- Getting my Z28 and modding it. Also, my 12 second pass 2 weeks ago :D

Worst-had to come in November. Hit a deer on the way to Atco. Then a week later, some lady stopped short in front of me and I tapped her. No damage to either car other than the deer damage that was still on the Z.

Worst: having to put our dog of 13 years down, and my 401K is losing 40% this year so I guess I won't be retiring any time soon(not that I planned on it)

Best: going to london to see zep (end of 07 but close enough), finishing the deck, carlisle/GM nats

Worst: my wife's grandmother died, we almost lost my dad, watching many good folks I work with lose their jobs over the year and the dark cloud that still hovers over the place. And cancelling power tour 2009 plans.

2008 ended poorly, let's hope 2009 ends better.

Best: selling our house for a profit in a horrible market, buying a wonderful house that needed NO work whatsoever, and getting a new job without full credentials yet (though it starts in 09, but I was offerred it in Oct) in a horrible economy. And, having a new addition to the family (the kitty cat, lol)

Worst: James' 2 surgeries, the accident, and all of the recovery time from them.

2009 is looking much brighter though, that's for sure!

Worst - I'm just glad 2008 is over. Absolutely the worst and most depressing period of my life something I hope to never repeat.

Best - Got a motorcycle, made a 12 second pass in the Z, & got accepted into Marine Corp Officer Candidate School for Summer of 2009.

2009 truly is the year of change for me!

Cant really give a best and worst. It all kinda was give and take this year.
I guess Im thankful that a part time job turned into a true full time gig, paying more in a a better company. Im thankful for moving in with my gf into her new house that, while having a few problems, has been great.
2008 has been a general ****fest and Ive seen a lot of people on the ropes. To them I hope for a better 2009.

Best- I think my vacation to Williamsburg with my parents and Steve for my birthday. As well as going back to my job as a preschool photographer.

Worst- having a giant fallout with my dad over the summer that were just starting to overcome. That and seeing my grandmothers parkinsons progress much faster than before.
