Bananas Year in Review

Being a fan of self-reflection and all, I thought it only appropriate that I spend some time documenting the highs and lows of 2007… you know, for posterity.

I did THIS for the first time ever

Started, and refused to ever stop, blogging.

Yoga

Became a stay-at-home mom

housewife

Washed my kitchen floor. (it was the first and LAST time! ewww!

I stopped doing this…

Working

no-more-ninetofive

I fell in love with…

Roomba

My inner child

I had brushes with adventure and death-defying excitement when…

I narrowly escaped a falling box of condoms

And ran my car into our other car.

And jumped into an ice-cold lake to save CJ.

I’m pretty sure I made some waves when…

I took The Beast on tour at the Seattle private school circuit

I crowned myself Wonder Woman and Miss America.

I failed to…

Get elected president

Get all strong and toned

But it’s ok because I pulled off THESE major milestones…

Successfully potty-training CJ

Celebrating our 10 year anniversary

Starting up Seattle Mom Blogs with Kathryn and Eve.

Re-siding our house (well, it’s mostly done)

Yep, all in all I’m calling it a GREAT YEAR!

Thanks for being part of it!

  4. I’m so glad I got to meet you, Jenny. I hope we can get together and hang out and make biting comments about this strange and wonderful city.

  5. You know, you could still totally throw your hat in the ring for the Presidency thing in ’08.

    I think I’d rather vote for you than all the other options out there.
