At the end of every year, I always say “Wow! That went by really fast!” and I really feel that way. I’m twenty four years old. My daughters are three and five – I don’t have actual babies for the first time in a very long time. I’ve made a lot of friends, I’ve lost a few, I’ve set myself on a path that I belong on. I’ve changed, and I’ve stayed the same. I can look back on my blog and see that, and I enjoy it.
Here are my favorite posts (of mine) from each month of this past year. This is blatantly stolen from Heather B..
January – “Immoral Matriwha’?”
February – Highly Combustible
March – My Life. Hollywood Style.
April -White is Alright?
May – I GUESS I’m a Mommy Blogger
June – 200 lbs, yes.
July – eBallers
August – “…and this is my partner, Ovaltine Jenkins.”
September – My Decision, Dammit
October – Rest Peacefully Gabriel Josh Wolrab
November – And tears stream down my face…
December – I can do it better myself…
So what are your own personal favorites of the year? Leave links in the comments: I’d like to read them.

I was going to do the same thing. But going through my archives opened some old wounds.
So I chose to shoot glitter out my arse.
Way funner.
Happy New Year my gorgeous girl.
Smootches.
Kelley´s last blog post..Happy New Year! Early. Cause I am all about being first.
Totally stealing this for my next post. Thanks lovey!
Miss Grace´s last blog post..Trips to Plan/People to Visit: 2009 Edition
I can definitely relate. I can’t believe that 4 months from now I’ll be 25 with a 6 year old! I’m getting old, lol.
So many great posts to read (some I’ve already read). Gonna enjoy checking them all out. I’ll be back with a few of my favs for you to check out… you know I’m here visiting from the SK =)
You know I think I discovered you with the Gabriel Josh Wolrab post. That one. Oy vey. I couldn’t get him out of my head. I was actually bawling my eyes out when I read he passed. I wanted to just feed him, bathe him, clothe him, shelter him, hold him, and shower him with love. Not enough love in the world.
Hugs, Maria! I hope you have a fantabulous 2009!

Happy New Year Maria to you and the girls..

Kim´s last blog post..Happy New Year
The new year always makes me a little nervous, I think just because my birthday is a couple days later. That’s too much excitement in a short time. I did a best and worst list on my blog too, it’s interesting to go back through the year.
Summer´s last blog post..eLearners.com – Online College Search
It’s so hard to choose, but I’ll be back later today to tell you what my favorites were, and re-read yours!
For now, I have something for you over at my blog, so come and check it out when you have time!

You, however are gem after gem and I adore you

I loved all your stuff around the election, because I’m such a political junkie and your opinions rocked.

happy new years!!
melissa´s last blog post..HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Given the frequency of my senior moments, I’m shocked at how many of these I remember. That can only be attributed to how much your words mean to me. It’s been a pleasure to read you in 2008. I look forward to many more in 2009.
Happy New Year, Maria.
April´s last blog post..(Early) Weekend Wrap-Up & (Early) Happy New Year
I picked my favorites and put them up over at my place. Sorry if this looks ugly, but I am not smart enough to know how to put a pretty link in a comment…

I took your advice and listed some of my favorites from each month here: http://tinyurl.com/855r5u
Father Muskrat´s last blog post..how i met yo mama
Oh God. P.S. one of my posts blatantly featured you but it was just to relay the fact that I spent all of 2008 as an ornery bitch.
I apologize for any indiscretions that occurred in July/August.
Just stopping back by to leave my favs for you to check out if you’d like… well, I don’t really know if they are my all time favs, but they’ll do, lol.

Wow! You’ve actually inspired me to look back at my blog. I didn’t think I’d get around to doing that until my kids were in college!
