One Year Blogiversary

Tis true! I started this blog one year ago today.  Some people have a big birthday bash with cake and really awesome giveaways and stuff like that on their blogiversary.  Sorry, none of that is going on around here today.  Nuh-uh.  My blog has been a little neglected lately (thought I'd mentioned it in case anyone failed to notice).  Then I had the idea that it'd be fun or painful to visit some of the things that have changed over the course of a year.  So here they are for you in a list form.  Enjoy!

THEN:  My boys had just had their 7th and 2nd birthdays
NOW:  My boys recently had their 8th and 3rd birthdays

THEN:  I used a little point and shoot camera that was at least 6 yrs old
NOW:  I have a DSLR, which I love but don't use to it's fullest potential. I guess that's pretty obvious from my photos, huh?  :)

THEN:  I blogged at least 5 days a week
NOW:  I'm lucky to publish a blog post once a week

Ok, those were easy.  Here's the overly sarcastic Kristy that we all know and love. Ahem.

THEN:  I was married
NOW:  I'm divorced

THEN: I lived in the house I loved because I bought it with the intentions of raising my family there
NOW: I live in a rent house 60 miles away, and will have to move again when the lease is up

THEN: I had a gloriously large kitchen with miles of counter space, more cabinet space than a girl like me could possibly need, and a pantry that was the envy of many a woman. You can see the pantry here and the kitchen here
NOW: Counter space is a hot commodity, and I can't find jack.  Oh, and no pantry

THEN: No boyfriend
NOW: Still no boyfriend

And, now, instead of a rambling monologue from me, I give you inspirational words from the source of inspiration itself, Pinterest :)
