1 x 1 2008

About a year ago today marked the time of when I contracted the infectious blogging bug. It was the week I spent a lot of time in front of the computer, clicking away on blog lists until I found bloggers with whom I felt a kinship. It was when I found Tewkesbury and Cele and Alice. Since those blogging relationships, others have bloomed over this last year like Shiggy and Sideon and Kristen. I feel very blessed to have linked up my electronic life with these amazing people. Then, the coolest thing started happening... my "real life" friends and loved ones started blogging too (or I finally discovered their blogs...) and my "to read" list grew.

Last year, Tewksey posted a yearend Meme that I loved and last night, in the middle of the night whilst I was tossing and turning, I remembered it and decided I wanted to revive it for this year.

The rules are pretty basic:
  • Take the first line of the first post from every month in 2007 and play the game.
  • Create a link to the original post so readers can continue reading when compelled to do so. (My link will be in the name of the month.)
  • For extra jazziness, include a picture from the post.
    • I discovered last year that the funnest part of this, for me, was the chance to reread some of what I had written. I discovered I had some pretty good stuff out there!!! Let's see what I did this year...

      Sooooooooooooooooooooo... without further ado, presenting this year's "One by One"...

      The sun rose this morning, kissing the points of the Rocky Mountains and ascending into a sky so blue and cloudless it hurt my eyes to look at the brilliance...

      July 2008
      The house which is in the works for me to purchase has been vacant and unloved since February.... (Ugh... I forgot about this one. I feel sad.)
