2017 was a very up and down year for me. There was the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, pretty much like the year before, but not as bad.

The year started out with me in the hospital for an overnight stay and then battling an illness. I ended up getting a part-time job at Torrid, loved the 40 percent discount and spent most of the money I earned there. But then that all went to crap when my Mom ended up in the hospital again for the first of a few times. But this isn’t going to rehash all of that.

This post is going to be about my favorite parts of 2017 – in photos.
