Here's a Meme from Madam Smallworld  to get the countdown to the New Year rolling:

1) Look back to your archives for 2007.
2) Collect the first sentence you wrote every month for the whole year. (This doesn't have to be the literal first day of the month--just the first post.)
3) Entertain us on your blog, link back here, and post a comment here with the link to your blog. (And if you're blogless, just remember the first sentence you spoke every month for the whole year and post it here.)

Note:  After conducting this exercise for myself, I'm realizing that the first blog I write of every month is particularly boring!  Let's do a meme wherein we pick the best blog of each month, shall we?

January - It is so hard for me to believe that our school year is more than half over. 

February - I've been drafting and drafting various blog postings, but just haven't been happy enough to press "add new entry." (Waffle recipe posted!)

March - If everyone lived like me, we would need 7.7 additional planets the size of earth to sustain us all. 

April - I'm an input junkie.  (Re: Unplugging Me - a failed experiment)

May - After a 10 day delay, the King and I were finally able to celebrate our 14th anniversary. 

June - I cannot believe a whole, mostly glorious, 12-month long year has passed since Baby was born. 

July - I signed up some time ago to join Tim in a new initiative called Xercise365.  (Still working this, although imperfectly:  Queenteamx365)

August - I'm so excited. (Re: boat purchase)

September - There is a special conference on the Sabbath taking place this coming weekend in Knoxville, at the Convention Center. 

October - Today, I did something I haven't done in 14.5 years. (Re: Bryce Canyon, Utah)

November - Someone needs to invent a "Clapper" that can be attached to coffee mugs, so I can find mine whenever I'm darting through the house trying to get things done in between trying to get other things done. 

December - Which way do YOU spell it?  And why would I even wonder, not being the least bit Jewish?  (Re: Hannukah and its relevance for Christians)

Here's my word cloud.  Get yours here.

Like my friend Arajbrown, I have trouble committing to a regular blog series like some of our other friends do so successfully.  But the older I get, the fewer details I remember of my travels of the past, so it would be good for me to put my memories to "paper."  I have boxes and boxes of photos of all the different places I've been, but I'm actually forgetting what some of the images are.  It would probably cause a rip in the universe if I were somehow able to put both my thoughts AND some photos in my blogs in a timely manner, so I can't promise that.  I will try to organize my blogs by headings something like this:

1. Hardest/Easiest Place to Leave
2. Most Surreal Place
3. Most Unique Place
4. Scariest Place/Situation
5. Place I Could Totally Live In
6. Place I Want to Return to Most Often
7. Worst/Best Hotel
8. Worst Food-borne illnesses

What other headings do you suggest?
