As the year shortly comes to a close, I wanted to reflect on what has happened over the last year because I feel like it has been extensive. My goal for next year is to do a better job documenting these things as they happen so I don’t forget them. Life does come at you fast, so it easy to to lose track of the details and what is really important.
In March, I started a new job. After nearly ten years at my prior employer it was time to move on. This would be my second professional job and a lot of anticipation came with it. I would join a much larger company with many new opportunities.
In April I got married to the love of my life. We had a great time out in Las Vegas. I can’t wait to good back this upcoming April to celebrate our one year anniversary.
During the spring and summer I did a lot of flying with my new job. I tried to blog about these trips, but many were non eventful or I didn’t have time. Through the year I logged 98 flights, just shy of 100. I hope to break the 100 mark in 2019.
In July we went to Memphis to see my sister and also to Minneapolis to see my brother-in-law and new niece! Outside of these trips we didn’t do much vacationing, so I hope to change that next year.
Fall was nothing too special, just the same as the rest of the year. My travel started to curtail a bit, so I wasn’t able to hit Platinum Pro on American Airlines, but hope to be able to next year.
In December, my wife also got a new job. I think it will be a great opportunity for her to grow her career and I am very proud of her for making the jump.
