Highlights of My First Year Blogging...

I just realized that June completed my first year of blogging. I've had such a great time and found it to be great therapy. In honor of my first year blogging, I've decided to highlight some of what's gone on over the last year of my life...

We started our farm with chickens and quail.

I chronicled Elmer's attempt to catch SOB - the elusive raccoon. Final score SOB 314 - Elmer Fudd - 0.

I made fun of Kate.

I attended Casting for Recovery - what a great program!

Mom and I traveled to Toronto and had some wonderful experiences with some of the local folks. http://livinglifewithchemobrain.blogspot.com/2007/08/toronto-oddities.html

I made fun of Linda.

In honor of mom's 76th birthday, we rode the rapids of the mighty Payette River.

I blogged about everyone in the family - and all their oddities.

I was run off the road by a drunk driver at 10:00 in the morning.

Linda got married.

I decided to move to Belize.

I made fun of Kate again.

I told you "More than you ever wanted to know about me" - boy, was that embarrassing! (this one I am NOT linking to)
I busted my arse in the parking lot at Idaho State Police...

I went to work for a Private Investigator.

My sisters and I decided to get our noses pierced on one of our "girls weekends"
Mom and I went on a cruise with Medium Lisa Williams - hoping dad would come through.
I decided if I couldn't move to Belize, Elmer and I should buy property and open a wall tent hotel I discovered how woefully pathetic my life is by becoming very excited when I received an email from a friend about how Aluminum foil rolls have these little pokey-in things on each end that makes it so the foil doesn't come flying our every time you try to tear it off the roll.
I learned a few more important things about lifehttp://livinglifewithchemobrain.blogspot.com/2007/09/life.html

After going through pictures on my computer to put them onto disks, I discovered that for some reason, people end up with my underwear on their heads



I made fun of Linda again.

I signed up for Camp Erin.

Elmer made me get rid of the wonderful old brown couch and (matching mind you!) brown chair on my front porch.

Mom and I went to see Stomp!

I discovered the Amazing Presto bucket (still haven't got one though).

My sister-in-law Ruth completed an Iron Man Triathlon!
Adam got sprayed by a skunk.
We won a trip to San Diego...

And I found 2 old friends from second grade!

What a great year it's been!
I do believe, however, it's time to make fun of Linda and Kate again...

Oh my, that was fun! But you should have linked to each post so that we could go back and re-read them again.

Did you really get rid of the brown couch?? Nooooo!!!!!!

And no, it is NOT time to make fun of Kate again. How 'bout you make fun of Elmer some more?

Linda said...

I agree, Elmer's antics are much more interesting than your dull sisters.... (grin!)

It was a fun year! And I've loved having these blogs. What a great way for all of us to stay close. Through blogging, we share things that we just wouldn't bother with by phone. I love our blogs!

Linda said...

Elmer and SOB were definetly my favorite. Although the "challenge" between you and Kate at my wedding was pretty good too.

Jodi said...

Kate, I certainly would have linked to each of them if I could friggin figure out how to do it.

Now you realize YOU'VE both been blogging for a year too, so I expect to see the same thing from both of you in the next few days...

Uh, one correction-----it was you and Adam that went to Stomp. I passed on that one.
I, too, love all of the blogs that ALL of you girls do. AND, I learned some verrrry interesting things about you and your pasts that I didn't know and now its too late to do anything about it.---thank goodness, cuz I don't know what I would have done then.
Keep up the blogging girls, its fun !
