I blog about; life with my loving husband, & our cats Siggy, and Maddie. Stuff in the news, my crafts, memes, photo posts & various other things that catch my fancy. I really like working at home, my husband appreciates my roll as housewife, and I find it my most rewarding job yet. We still hope to have children, though we still don't have any yet.

5's

Anne tagged me for a meme post so here I go! (I secretly love these things, it's silly, but I enjoy them every time I'm tagged!)

SO here are the rules:

Each player answers the five questions about themselves.
At the end of the post, the player tags five more people, posts their names and then goes to their respective blogs where they must leave a comment letting them know that they have been tagged to play along.

What was I doing ten years ago?
1. Sever case of senioritis... yes, this year is my 10 year anniversary since my H.S. graduation.
2. Debating about leaving First Christian Church, Redwood City.
3. Only applying to one college and getting in. I was accepted to San Jose Christian College. I have no idea what I would have done, or where I would have gone had I not got in.
4. Scrap-booking like crazy. I had so much free time my senior year of HS, I think it was the last time I actually completed albums the years the photos were taken!
5. Went to Europe with my family and boyfriend. I kept begging him to propose to me on the Charles bridge in Prague (Yes, we had been talking marriage then, but it still wasn't formal planned yet.) Kevin had me convinced he had something else in mind, but when we were almost all the way across the bridge he got down to "tie his shoes" and proposed to me!

Five things currently on my to-do list
1. Clean every room of the house
2. Finish outstanding swaps I really should send already.
3. Buy prenatal vitamins
4. Pack for Kevin's business trip next week.
5. Make the aprons for Grandma that she requested.

Five snacks I enjoy
1. Taquitos
2. Nacho corn chips (not Dorito's so much.)
3. Corn chips with salsa!
4. Cheese
5. bananas, or fruit in general really.

Five things I would do if I was a billionaire
1. Give a bunch away to different charities / organizations / and missionaries I believe in, and family.
2. Buy Mica a vehicle.
3. Buy Kevin and I new clothes and shoes, and restock our kitchen... all the things we're doing without but still need. As well as
splurge on wish-list items, the Amazon list is crazy long since we just don't buy extras it just keeps growing.
4. Pay off credit debt, and the house. Maybe buy another property... YES! I want a cabin in Mount Index area!
5. Invest for retirement/ kids, etc.

Five of my bad habits
1. Hating the telephone so much I never call anyone.
2. Zoning out with the TV on.
3. Blogging/chatting on-line when I should be sleeping.
4. Signing up for swaps when I can't really afford the postage and shouldn't be signing up for swaps, so instead I use grocery money to pay for swaps.
5. Not eating until I'm beyond hungry because I just don't want to stand in the kitchen when my back hurts.

Five places I have lived
1. Tacoma, WA
2. Redwood City, CA
3. Thornton, CO
4. San Jose, CA
5. Bothell, WA

Five jobs that I have had
1. Baby sitter/house sitter/ dog sitter
2. Receptionist
3. Nanny (more responsibility then #1.)
4. Retails sales/key-holder/Tupperware consultant/Professional crafter.
5. WIFE

I still do Tupperware, selling crafts on Etsy, and my favorite roll, WIFE!

I tag:
Mica
Dana
Sondra
Trish.
Laura

LJ collage thingy.

I made this off of my Live Journal that I never use. I basically keep a live journal account to post on some blogs, but I thought this was cool so I'd post it here too.
