Joined the board and "met" some great people online this year and have already learned so much, feeling more confident about completely taking over the business as my husband can no longer do it.
Upgraded some very important equipment pieces (Zipper & 360i) to make it easier on my back.
Increased my prices.
Built a strong relationship with my step-mother.
Lost 15 pounds (unintentionally but good nonetheless!).

I completely forgot about beating the hep c. That was the biggest and most important thing in 2015, hands down.
I did that about 6 years ago. Got it from one of my tattoos.
The treatment was brutal, 6 months of interferon which is a form of chemo. Lost the majority of my hair in the process too.
Glad you beat it!

It's pretty simple now. I took one pill a day for 8 weeks. No side effects, other than liqua- stools for the first week. The problem is at $90.000 for the treatment which I had covered by medical. Now about that Bell's Palsy......

Sometimes I think you're a female version of me as there seems to be a lot of paths we've crossed over common ground.

My brother from another mother?! :rockon:
I had to do the daily Ribovirin pills and the weekly self injection of PegInterferon. It was brutal. And some of the side effects are permanent. They almost had to stop it because it damn near blinded me....ugh!
Do you have issues in regards to the Bells Palsy?!

Yeah, the Bell's Palsy seems to not want to go away. I'm waiting to see a surgeon regarding a nerve transplant- BUT - not before I cover all the bases first. Right now I'm seeing an acupuncture dude that claims he has good success. I've had acupuncture before and had good results.

Getting over my fear of having a van payment. Business was up over 12%. Raising my prices. It was a great year. All these things were successes.

Just for fun, I'm going to ask the Doctor to take a picture of me with about 15 needles dug into nerves on my face, hooked up to a machine giving me small electrical pulses. It makes sense, but it isn't really comfortable. I have a hard time laying still with that going on.

First and foremost, the birth of my first child was my greatest success this year. A perfectly healthy baby girl who is now almost 11 months old.

Revenue up about 70%, which isn't quite as impressive as it sounds because I am still in growth mode. I did manage to do it while keeping advertising expense under 10%, so I am pretty proud of that.

Migrated to MB, where I've really enjoyed myself and received real, tangible help from a bunch of people here.

Was able to fish a bunch and spend a lot of time on the water this summer which was fantastic.
