Twenty-six days after the new year and I’m finally getting to this re-cap post! Apparently just because you’re the sort of person who has a constant monologue (mono-blog?) in your head doesn’t mean that it will automatically post to the internet where other people can see it…  I’m very bad about that and definitely must work on it in the future!

Going back in my blog the following things happened in 2009:

• I  finished a few Woolly Wormhead hats and became obsessed with knitting snoods.
• I attended a virtual tea party (hope to do it again this year!) with Lady Deathwatch & friends
• I dreaded my hair (again) and began stretching my earlobes in an attempt to look on the outside like  I feel on the inside… an ongoing project for sure.
• I tried my hand at yeast dough making and started baking like a crazy person – first pretzels, then pizza dough, cinnamon bread, challah, cinnamon rolls & ranch dinner rolls.  I haven’t stopped yet!
• My blog turned FIVE, my kid turned EIGHT, and I became THIRTY TWO.
• We welcomed new kitty Captain Jack to the family
• We went to Florida on a family trip and found out while we were there that our rental house had been foreclosed upon.
• We packed up our house and moved to a new location in the middle of the school year and right before the Thanksgiving holiday with the help of friends.
• I learned a lot about what I am capable of handling and when I need to ask for help.

So far in 2010:

• I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the direction I’d like to go with my small business – I put everything on hold when we moved and figured it was a good time to do some thinking and future planning.
• Captain Jack went to the vet and came back …um..minus some parts… but more of a snuggle bug and less of an annoying screaming bastard who pees on everything.
• I’ve started to get a bit of a hold on  my fear of crowds and driving – I even managed to attend a movie on a Friday night with a friend!
