I didn't know what happened to my password or something, and felt like I would have to abandon it, to see it lost to time. I felt like it hadn't been the same since I had to move it from my own personal webpage to be hosted on Blogger, since I lost all of the images and comments anyway.

When I actually pay attention to my poor, neglected blog and go over the last year in Q&A format. So, what did I do this year?
I think I will post a month by month rundown of my year with the highs and lows in an upcoming post.
01. What did you do in 2016 that you'd never done before?Sky Cycle, Achievement Unlocked!

I may not post anything else all year, but I post this. How'd I do?
1. Natural Childbirth - Done and done. In a hospital, minimal interventions, I was satisfied with the experience. Seriously, I can do labor no problem.

And if I had a kid, I'll tell you my birth story. I have a few drafts in my queue that I never finished, I just can't stop long enough to write anything in too much detail, and by the time I get back to it, the moment has passed and I don't feel like finishing the post.Risawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10144427344180421691noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8578608.post-42615289740805321582015-01-29T12:29:00.000-08:002015-01-29T12:33:25.443-08:00New Years Resolutions: 2014/2015 editionYou know, I love the idea of having a set of goals to accomplish for the year, and then looking back and seeing how I did. Sometimes looking back can be depressing, or it can be a chance to reassess where your priorities lie. My goals have definitely changed over the years. So this year has been kind of everywhere, in a good way!

I really like to do these, as it is a nice wrap up of the prior year, though lately, it appears that this is all I do with my blog anymore. 01. What did you do in 2014 that you'd never done before?

Kind of a sad chain of events I know. But don't see this as a sign that I'll post here more frequently. Though who knows, I might.
So what started this? I guess it begins with the drama of Facebook, and social media in general, a drama that I was feeding myself into like a stupid Kamihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13095822277091597197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8578608.post-56246135174939095212014-01-01T00:01:00.000-08:002014-01-01T00:01:00.470-08:00Resolutions, 2013/2014Wow, I don't need to say it, but life has just sort of taken me completely away from computers so I basically live on my iPhone these days, and very rarely do I blog. But what's a little New Year's Resolution Post going to hurt? That's right, nobody. So here it goes, how did I do this year on my Resolutions?
Hah!
That's a preview.

I still have it saved in my drafts, unfinished, because it got pushed to the side like so many things have in my life.
01. What did you do in 2013 that you'd never done before? Became mother to a two year old. That is something in and off itself.

So, I put up resolutions last year, how did I do?
1. Regularly attend church - Ok, I did better this year then years previous, and I was actually doing pretty well at the beginning of the year.

Who am I fooling? I guess that means I should resort to Twitter and Blogger, and leave Facebook for pics of the kidling and other stuff. I have lately been ignoring Twitter and Blogger, so I guess I need to find a way to use them for my political outlet.
First off, the Obama Risawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10144427344180421691noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8578608.post-53650924698495716882012-09-20T10:38:00.002-07:002012-09-20T10:38:33.137-07:00Stop with the Gas Criticism AlreadyYeah, I know, I have been out of the blogging business for a while now. I guess life has just been getting the better of me.
However, I want to bring up a point to my fellow conservatives who like to point out that gas was $1.85 when Obama took office on Jan 20, 2009 versus today's prices of roughly $3.85 or so a gallon.

I'm one of those moms. Yeah, one of THOSE moms.
I was doing a church activity last night, I think I was the only one there who brought their baby along, and the topic of babies came up and the current trends of mommy hood. One that was thought of as ridiculous by some of these women was the idea that the baby should only be on formula or Kamihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13095822277091597197noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8578608.post-61993981937940583852012-03-26T13:10:00.000-07:002012-03-26T13:10:34.571-07:00Life After ChildbirthWhere do I begin? I think I'm starting to finally feel the need to get out do things, and having an infant that you have to lug around everywhere you go does put a damper on your style. I felt pretty independent and free before becoming a mother and now, not so much, but still, at the same time, I do love my daughter and I love being a mom.

I heard about it through an email petition on behalf of Martin's parents seeking justice for their son's murder, but I didn't know the full details so I didn't bother signing it.

I thought I would start doing it as well. Here is a rundown of my month to month activities, the highlights and main events.
JANUARY
P90X going strong, trained for UPL with the Military that sent me to Texas for a weekend. Got attacked by a feral cat and had to get rabies shots. A couple of weeks of trying to trap cat with no dice.

Turns out one trumped the rest. How did I do for 2011?
Well, the first four are related.
1. Run Bloomsday at close to an hour - I didn't even run bloomsday.
2. Leadman - A triathlon that is ski/bike/run. Was tempted to try, glad I didn't.
3. Pattern Racing - You take a horse and do various gaming Kamihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13095822277091597197noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8578608.post-50128718775890663592012-01-04T15:02:00.000-08:002012-01-04T15:02:27.111-08:002011 in reviewDespite how little, or how much I blog, I will always do my review of my year.
This year, I'm going to add a little extra. A month by month account of how my year went. Coming in a blog post near you.
01. What did you do in 2011 that you'd never done before?
Hmm. . . thinking. . . :P

Yeah, great timing, don't you think? And it was definitely a case of me not knowing why I was so upset. Really, one of those cases of depression that you can't explain. Guess it's the hormones coupled with the lack of sunlight and trying to get better while taking care of an infant who has been quite fussy recently, and me learning the ins and outsRisawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10144427344180421691noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8578608.post-6443531677019990832011-11-07T17:43:00.001-08:002011-11-07T20:18:35.974-08:00The end of the world as I know it. . .. . . and I feel fine.I recently heard that REM broke up.

Facebook has really done a number on you hasn't it? I guess it's because Facebook is just so dang convenient. And addicting. Yikes!So the latest? Well, still pregnant. In fact, pregnancy does take a number on you when you just want to rest all of the time and a quick jot on Facebook to keep people updated on your thoughts and life is all you really have time for.

What can i say? I'm still pregnant, and being pregnant makes me not want to write about things that gets my blood boiling, because I want munchkin to be happy and healthy and I don't want to send negative vibes her way, so I try to think positive things.
Meaning political blogging is definitely out.
