2013, in order:
1.June
Got married! Honeymoon! Moved into the barn! VU trip!
2.December
Normal Christmas upheaval and fun. Found a major leak in the water lines. Most normal-feeling and restful month this year. Won a fantasy football league.
3.November
Bought a washer and dryer. The Wife's Chicago trip. VU Jamaica trip! Wrestling with House Title Company about the Deed. Thanksgiving fun! Feeling very married and happy!
4.January
Started preparing my house for sale. Life was pretty chill.
5.September
Got a bad medical diagnosis 3 days after health insurance stopped. Arkansas wedding trip! Finally bought the house! Moved. Won a fantasy baseball league.
6.October
My grandma died. Started another new job! Church Men's Retreat! VU Branson trip! Wrestling with House Title Company about unpaid fees and their foibles. Busted my finger up real good playing softball.
7.March
Lived as a guest in my home whilst emptying it into storage units. Continued some pre-marital counseling from last year.
8.August
Trying to piece life together (new stuff and repairing from the job loss). Car trouble, navigating buying a house, job search, health insurance? Got a new job! Long commutes with no schedule flexibility.
9.May
Stress of continued planning for the wedding. And the honeymoon. Still homeless.
10.February
Lots more prep work for the house (carpet, painting, cleaning, emptying). Life was less chill. Sold the house, which was a stressful debacle. Gave away (or threw away) a lot of my stuff. "My" started disappearing.
11.April
Moved out of my home. Became "homeless" and felt very unsettled. Had to commute through nasty traffic every day. Throes of engagement. Had to leave The Fiancee every night. Planning a wedding. House hunting. Wedding shower.
12.July
Wife's grandma died. Lots of house hunting drama. Found a house we liked! I immediately got laid off. Lots of not sleeping and anger.
