Things I’ve Broken:
1. While taking down the Christmas tree this year, a new blue glass ornament that I bought in New Harmony in November. And I couldn’t even blame it on the kids.
2. Possibly a few hearts, over the years. I’m sorry about that.
3. The plexi-glass in my parent’s front door. My parents have a rustic wooden home and my dad cut out horse shapes from their super-thick wooden front doors and covered them with plexi-glass. One late night I rode home from a road trip with my sister, brother-in-law, and their two young sons. My bro-in-law fell asleep at the wheel and we sort of side-swiped a semi. No one was injured, thank goodness, but I was completely freaked out. I puked by the side of the road. When I finally made it to my parent’s house I couldn’t get my door key to work and started banging on the front door, breaking the plexi-glass in the process. I made my mom sleep with me that night. This happened several years ago and I’m pretty sure the broken piece is still there.
4. A perfect set of white bowls from Williams Sonoma. They fell out of the cabinet as I was putting dishes away and shattered all over our tile floor. Only one bowl from the set remains.
Inspired by Andrea’s year of lists.

Interesting. My entirely list would be cellphones.
