See 'ya, 2008


Happy New Year to the bloggy world! I posted on the Bloggest Loser blog, just in case anyone wants to re-start this thing in 2009. I have two important occasions that I want to get "fit" for. Also, I want to give a big welcome to Bob's new baby!

I did this a couple of years ago, so let's try it again. I'm posting the first sentence or two from the first blog post of each month from 2008. Here we go...

January-This is an official update. Let's see, what's going on?
February-I'm not a big football fan, but I did go to a Super Bowl party.
March-"Disposable briefs available upon request." Yep, that's the sign in the women's bathroom at the Palm Springs, California Follies.
April-We were lucky enough to sit next to an Australian businessman on the flight to Melbourne so we enjoyed comparing customs and finding out about his country.
May-We packed up our croissant sandwiches that we made from the breakfast buffet and took off for the airport to Sydney. You know you’re traveling a lot when you start to recognize the flight attendants and you know your passport number by heart.
June-We flew from Rotorua on the North Island of New Zealand south to Christchurch.
July-Why did the geese cross the road?
To get to a lake on the other side.
August-The Olympics
The opening ceremonies? Spectacular! Truly amazing!
September-I haven't been this interested in politics in about a zillion years.
October-MM posted what her typical day is like, so I'm going to borrow her idea and do the same.
November-Holy Toledo! I haven't updated in ages.
December-Nope, no snow here, but look at this cute dog video:

I can't forget my feline friends, can I?
