Here are the first lines from the first blog post of each month from 2011. I need some variety!
Jan: My dad said I needed to write the date down somewhere today.
A fun date to write (too bad I missed 11.11.11) and fit well with my blogging year in review.
Feb: Staying busy
A rhyming tribute to my life.
March: Just a reminder to spring ahead one hour tonight/tomorrow morning at 2.
A reminder of why we have to “spring forward” each year.
April: In my husband’s training for Iron man it calls for lots of drill training.
Incorporating drill training helps build strength and speed.
May: Fahrenheit 451: I read this book several years ago and liked it.
A HIT or MISS post.
June: I am frugal.
Some things never change!
July: The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: When I saw this book for $2 at Barnes and Noble I thought I’d pick it up for a Christmas present.
Another HIT or MISS post. Reading a book I am going to give as a gift doesn’t count as “re-gifting”…
Aug: It took me most of June and half of July to finish this book.
Another HIT or MISS post. I need to try to keep that from being my first post each month!
Sept: …I finished my first ever Olympic distance triathlon.
YAY!
Oct: The Prestige: Wow! What an interesting movie!
surprise, surprise, a HIT or MISS post…
Nov: The Dark Ages: I actually watched this History Channel presentation in Sept. but forgot to list it.
I lead an exciting life…..
Dec: Pirate Latitudes: I found this Michael Crichton book on sale at the grocery store.
I guess I am blogging on autopilot!

I like this idea a lot! I’d probably be afraid to do it myself though.

Busy year!
I didn’t do a great job of keeping up my main blog in 2011. Several months ONLY had my Hit or Miss list. I’m probably going to have to move to a new site soon, so haven’t wanted to invest too much into this blog until I get that ironed out. I hope to be less on autopilot after this.

It’s fun to look back at the year in review, even if it shows what a boring life I lead!
