As I've done the last couple of years at this time of year, it's time for a little year-in-review -- in words (the first sentence of the first post of each month) and in pictures (one favorite posted photo from each month), not necessarily related to each other.

January:  Get your cameras ready!!

February:  I was flipping through channels yesterday while cleaning up the kitchen and stumbled across a rebroadcast of the Republican debate from the night before -- it wasn't long before I flipped channels some more, but this caught my attention for a few minutes.

March:  I've been savoring my weekend.

April:  I had a great time at cooking class last night.

May:  It's Saturday Sky!

June:  VIOLA, cornuta, Black Devil.

July:  Inspired.

August:  Continuing a very busy weekend, I'm on my way to Madison today in a borrowed van to haul the big stuff from Katie's apartment.

September:  Juno Regina!

October:  It was a good day, especially since I was a little down in the dumps yesterday.

November:  I had a TERRIBLE FRIGHT!

December:  Honest to god, I have so much more to say.
