Hindsight...

....is always 20/20. Gah...if I could have a do-over of last year! Soooo many things I'd change or at least do differently! Let's start with February.

-I would have sent the hubby out to move the car, instead of the oldest child. Cost us $900 to repair the damage to friend's car when he failed to see it in the dark and backed into it.

March:
-I would have held on to more of our tax refund; plus the minute the spouse complained about his sight, dragged him to the eye doctor.

-Picked a better date for oldest son's Eagle Ceremony, but as it turned out, nobody will ever forget that day, lol! (Palm Sunday, two days after hubby's eye surgery!)

July:
-Investigated potential publisher a bit more thoroughly.

Aug:
-Would have made a better decision, instead of keeping my 'WTHIGO' issues to myself.
-Bought oldest the College Care Package, even though he told me not to.

Oct:
-Attended signing in the MORNING, instead of the afternoon. Everyone was gone by then.

I know there are others I'm forgetting; these are just the big ones. The best decision of last year, it seems, was doing the Farmer's Market every weekend. It got me noticed by the Christmas Parade planners, and as a result, myself and five other authors were made the Grand Marshals. I enjoyed it, and was thankful the weather cooperated.

What about you? Do you have anything you'd like to change about the past year? Or was 2010 pretty good?

Hindsight. There were a lot of things I'd do differently. Hopefully 2011 is going better for you.

Doesn't hindsight have such a nasty dry, sarcastic attitude. Humph. Know-it-all. Here's looking to a better year; it can only go up from here, right?!
