One Year!

Today is my one-year blog-iversary! What does this mean? That I'm a nerd who celebrates made-up holidays... But it's an excuse to eat cake--or at least those dried-up old donuts that have been sitting in my fridge for a few days now. And since it falls on a Friday, it means that after the kids go to bed, I'll make some cheesy popcorn and the Captain and I (and possibly my new purse which, I admit, I've been cuddling and stroking like a small dog) will have a glass of wine and watch a movie. Date night! Woo hoo!

In the past year, life has changed a lot, and stayed the same as well. I've made some great friends in the blog community, and found so many awesome blogs that make me laugh, or drool, or feel inspired. I've also spent way too much time online. Some of my worries have been resolved, but they've made way for new, sometimes bigger worries. But I guess when it comes down to it, no matter how brutal life gets, if no one dies, you'll probably be alright in the end. And even if you aren't, it's the people you connect with who lift you back up and dust you off and remind you that you are not alone.

So I thank you, my blog buddies, for floating around out here in cyberspace with me. Here's to 365 more days of insanity, purses, messy children, absent husbands, stinky dogs, garden adventures (I still hear growling...) and friendship in the 21st century!

And tomorrow is another (blogging) day...
