A lazy blog day :)
From Darcie’s lovely blog at Such the Spot, here are my blanks all filled in for you:
What were you doing ten years ago?
Gosh, that’s hard to remember! Apparantly nothing too exciting! I was dating my soon-to-be husband, I know that much for sure. I was working a little and playing a lot, I still ran 3 miles every morning, and I was fluctuating between sizes 2 and 4, depending on how much I ate (or drank) the night before. Ah, the good old days!
What are 5 things on your to-do list?
1. Pre-load Jimmy Buffet on ipod we got for mom’s Mother’s Day present
2. Spread truckload of mulch in backyard playground area
3. Finish dress for nautical/patriotic launch coming up next Tuesday
4. Harass doctor’s office for the 5th time about the delay in my test results
5. Get snacks ready for Annie’s soccer game tonight
What are 5 snacks you enjoy?
1. Carrot sticks (so addictive)
2. Baked Lays (even more addictive)
3. homemade guacamole
4. pretzel sticks
5. Fiber One bars
What would you do if you were a millionaire?
Well we’d move. We want to build a bigger house on some land (no neighbors, yahoo!). I’d buy a new van, and a truck for Chris who misses his terribly. We’d pay off my parents’ and my sister’s debts and make sure they’re all squared away. Set up a trust fund for my cousin with cerebral palsy. Set aside enough money to live comfortably. Then give the rest away, the sooner the better. I have zero desire to sit on mega wealth, and am often disgusted by people who do.
We’d give a chunk to our church, to the March of Dimes, and Kosair Children’s Hospital which has been a godsend to us. I’d also like to help fund adoptions for wonderful deserving families who can’t afford to adopt on their own.
Name some of the places you’ve called home.
Home for me is always Pennsylvania where I grew up. I have no desire to move back there, but it will forever be home to me.
I’m also at home whenever I am at my parents’ house, be it in Kentucky, Alabama, or South America – family is home to me.
My adult life has primarily been spent in Kentucky, though in 6 different cities!
I also feel like I live in Rainbow Pediatrics. And once upon a time I lived in WVU/Ruby Memorial Hospital.
What are some of your bad habits?
I’m stealing three of these verbatim from Darcie, who plucked the words right out of my brain:
I offer too little praise and too much criticism to the people I love the most.
I’m not as patient as I strive to be.
I let my tongue get the better of me when, many times, I’d do much better saying nothing at all.
Also…
I’m not neat enough (just ask Chris).
I can’t seem to completely finish anything before jumping into the next project.
I can’t tell people no, so I get overextended frequently.
I eat when I’m bored.
What are some jobs you’ve held?
Newspaper reporter
waitress
bartender
receptionist
title clerk
MOM
Who are you tagging?
Anyone who wants to play along!
