TAGGED!

10 years ago...

I was 24. I had been married for 2.5 years and our daughter Kesley was 4 years old. Honestly I was pretty sad at that time in my life because we wanted another child SO bad and we couldn't get pregnant. I should have been on anti-depressants, but I didn't know any better. I wasn't working since we were living in Grandma Reynolds' basement, so Kesley and I had a lot of fun hanging out together. Scott was working graves with the UHP, so we bought a dog (Browning) and he was about six months old at that point.

5 things on my list to do today...

1. Lunch at Blue Iguana with some friends from work. It is Karin's birthday and they haven't seen my little girls for a long time.


2. Drop off some packages at the Post Office - things I have recently sold therough eBay.


3. Grocery shopping - well it was supposed to just be milk and cereal (on sale 5/$10) - how did that come to $65???


4. Laundry - this is on my list EVERYDAY. I swear it never ends.


5. Clean up my girl's room. Since their daddy tended them yesterday while I worked all day, it looks like a tornado hit. Barbies, Polly-Pockets & board books have rained down everywhere!

Snacks I enjoy...

Oh, I just like everything - that's the problem! I love red licorice, cream soda, doritos, red grapes from costco, flat earth fruit chips, almonds, ANYTHING chocolate!!!

What would I do if I were suddenly a billionaire...

Wow, I know I would QUIT MY JOB - obviously! I would build us a new home and hire a cleaning service to keep up with it - that would be so great. I would use a good portion of it to help out my family - give a good chunk of change to each of our sibings and their families so they could buy a home, pay off a home, whatever... I would take everyone on a cruise - probably to Greece. Of course Scott and I would travel a ton and I'd get to do some of the charity work I want to do in Africa. We'd have our kids educations paid for, weddings paid for, missions paid for - wow, what it would be like to not have to think about any of that!

3 of my bad habits...

1. I pick my fingernails and cuticles. I hate that my hands alaways look beat up, but it is a horrible habit I can't seem to break!!! I need to get acrylic nails again so they look nicer, but I hate the upkeep of that.
2. I am an on again off again (and again and again and again) dieter. I hate that I have NO will power when it comes to food. I enjoy it way too much.
3. I am not a patient person. I get easily frustrated and annoyed with my family. I yell at my kids way too often and lose my cool. I so wish I could just take a deep breath and relax, but I struggle with that. I'm frustrated just thinking about it!

5 places I have lived...

1. Dallas, Texas
2. Bountiful, UT
3. Provo, UT
4. Woods Cross, UT
5. Centerville, UT
   

5 jobs I have had...

1. Cashier at the U of U tuition office
2. Waitress at Marie Callenders
3. Health Outreach Teacher for Pacificare
4. Information Specialist for SLC School District
5. Health Educator for Utah Dept of Health

5 things people don't know about me....

1. I was born in Dallas, Texas.
2. I talk to myself - a lot - I even answer myself. People who overhear me at the grocery store must think I am completely insane.
3. I LOVE to shop online. I love the convenience, I love to get things delivered to my house, I love that I can do it ANYTIME - middle of the night if I want to.
4. I really enjoy cooking. I don't do it as much as I'd like because I also love to eat what I cook and I don't need that. I have been known to make brownies and eat a piece when I come down to make Audrey a bottle at 4am. It's pitiful.
5. I say I am done having kids, but if I were surprised with another baby, I wouldn't be all that broken up about it - I just don't want a "surprise" in the next year or so.

I wish I had more people to tag with this blog, but Jennie and Kellie are really the only ones who read my blog and the've already been tagged, so if you are just browsing and I don't know you, please feel free to consider yourself tagged.
