Its All About Me

My friend Suzanne tagged me to do this survey.

10 years ago--

I was at BYU dirt poor and "donating' plasma for money. Luckily my Aunt Debbie and my Grandma Garrison took mercy on me and sent me a check every month too. I also had a very nice boyfriend that semester that bought groceries for us to cook together. It was a difficult semester in that regard, but it was a lot of fun.

5 Things on my to do list today were:

I worked last night, so the only thing on my list today was to sleep :) I was able to get some sleep before Ady woke up and she ended up sleeping in until 9, so that was lovely. Now Ady and I are just having a nice day together.

Snacks I enjoy----

1. Homemade Eggrolls!!

2. Spinach and Artichoke Dip

3. Diet Dr. Pepper

4. Chocolate in its many forms

5. Freshly baked cookies

Things I would do if I were suddenly a Billionaire:

The usual, boring stuff like pay off debt, build the perfect house on the perfect lot, finish school, newer cars, College funds for the kids, and set up a savings and live off the interest. I would love it if Dave could be "retired" already and we could spend more of our time together, unlike a lot of people, we dont get tired of each other - I know that might sound cheesy. He would love to be able to get a graduate degree and either write or be a professor, so maybe he could do that.

3 of my bad habits---

1. Getting frustrated at the kids. (ditto)

2. Drinking too much DP. (ditto - except my DP is Dr. P)

3. Getting engrossed in this and not being as aware as I need to be of whats going on around me.

Jobs I've had:

Babysitter

Food Service Worker at a hospital

Cook

Scheduler

Physical Therapy Aide

Occupational Therapy Aide

Receptionist

Office Manager

Sales Administrator

Accounts Payable Representative

Security

Realtor's Assistant

Cashier

5 Things people don't know about me----

1. I love to watch tv. I watch too many shows, and the writers strike was particularly hard for me. (ditto here again)

2. I love to chat with my friends online

3. I am a perfectionist, If I cant do it perfectly I dont want to do it at all resulting in anxiety attacks

4. I am a junk food Junky! I love to eat candy! But I am also the other extreme, if we could afford it we would almost exclusively eat organic and unprocessed foods. Almost though, It would be hard to give up chocolate completely, but I definitely enjoy organic chocolate ;)

5. I guess I am an open book, I cant think of a number 5

My friend Kris tagged me, so here goes

What was I doing 10 years ago?

September 1997...10 years ago I was...enjoying my first year at BYU. Making lots of new friends, dealing with difficult roommates, having a blast with the fun roommates, not doing as much homework as I should. I lived at Cinnamon Tree Apartments #13 :)

What was I doing 5 years ago?

September 2002...5 years ago... we had just recently moved to Indiana. Dave and I had been marriedalmost three years. Kyler was about 1 and a half, and Tayden was a new baby. I was either serving at church in the Primary as the Secretary, or as a Relief Society Teacher, Im not positive of the timing. I was struggling with being a new Mom, and Dave was enjoying his job at Wabash. We lived in an apartment. My friend Stephanie Mcmillan was my lifesaver. Her son, Todd, was a little younger than Kyler and she invited us over to play frequently.

What was I doing 1 year ago?

We were just about to move into the house we currently live in. Ady was about to turn 2, Kyler was in half day kindergarden. I was babysitting (and not liking it). Everything else was about the same.

What was I doing yesterday?
Ady and I went to Gymnastics. Then we had playgroup, which only turned out to be one family. So we had them stay for lunch. Ady loves playing with her friend, Morgan, so it was a nice day. After playgroup I did several scrapbook pages. Now that I finally have things set up to do them, I have started on the kids books. My brain only lets me go chronilogically, so Tayden is eagerly waiting for me to finish Kyler's so I can start on his. I am really excited to be started. Now that the boys are in school I have time for things like that. :)
