It's Mah Blogiversary!

A year ago yesterday, I wrote my inaugural post here - Hello, My Name is Mommy - and Fighting Off Frumpy was officially born. That's right ... it's my one-year blogiversary. Well, sort of, because like I said - it was actually yesterday. And I didn't even realize it until late last night, so I don't have any spectacular blog-stravaganza planned. I feel kinda bad about that, because The Frump has been a huge part of my life for the past twelve months.

It started out as a simple creative outlet for me, and a sort of e-chronicle of my kids' antics for future reference, and I figured it'd never go further than the few people who were kind enough to give it a "courtesy read." But here we are - one year later and hundreds of like-minded frump-fighters stronger. It still trips me out when I think about it.

I've covered a lot of material over that timespan. My life has changed DRAMATICALLY since that first post. I've lost my Grandma and my dog, given birth to a new son, added a new puppy to the chaos. We've had fiascos involving huge creepy insects, sunscreen, poop in strange places, and cakes gone terribly wrong. I've waxed poetic about my cheekbones and my vacuum cleaner, freaked out about a visitor in my pants, and discovered some valuable truths about motherhood. It hasn't always been fun, but in retrospect, I've learned and done a lot over the past year ... and have had many of you to hold my virtual hand throughout it all.

So even though I went all bad-blogger and totally overlooked the actual blogiversary (I feel like Molly Ringwald's parents in Sixteen Candles, y'all), at least it hasn't gone completely unobserved. Here's to a year of fighting the frump (my hair in that last blog post notwithstanding) ... and to all the good things yet to be blogged. :)

  16. Happy 1 year blogiversary! I recently started my blog (January of this year) and I am still overwhelmed by the support of the blogging community (as well as trying to overcome my technology-phobia). I wasn't sure if blogging was something I would actually follow through on, but now that I've dived in, I can't see abandoning this amazing project! Congratulations on making it an entire year! I hope to do the same!
