Blogging Year in Review

Jayne posted this “first lines” blog and it fit in nicely with something I wanted to do to finish up my wrap up of 2008.  It’s fascinating to look back at this project and see how it’s grown and developed this year.

First Lines by Month
December – December arriveth.
November – I may be insane but then again I may be merely crazy.
October – Hopeful, hopeful weather.
September – perched atop a tall dead tree | a black sleek raven | silhouetted with the moon
August – Look at this poor thing.
July – Ruby is a very good girl.
June – Wanderin’ Weeta is throwing a House Party — it’s a BYOBB* party.
May – My friend BEG posted a meme.
April – Ruby did not come on this camping trip with us.
March – Being at the Quilt Show got me thinking about bird art again.
February – Your Score: Linear B
January – Every family has their crazy aunt, right?
