tays has tagged me to answer a series of questions:
what was i doing ten years ago?
soo nothing important! i had just "broken up" with my highschool boy whom i never really "dated". (we liked eachother for three years and then actually said we were dating for a few months our senior year, but then i broke his heart on prom day by "breaking up". yes, we still went to prom together that night. he just threw up a few times! so mean of me to such a sweet boy. i still feel terrible, even though i apologized to him in depth later that year.) i had not applied to college even though i was about to graduate! i was also getting ready to spend the summer in Spofford, New Hampshire as a camp counselor.
5 things on my to-do list:
1. BLOG on my BLOG. i am so bad at this, b/c i always wonder what anyone would want to read about my life.
2.change out winter/summer clothes in closet. (i have had my summer clothes in their garment bags on the floor of my bedroom for at least two weeks.)
3. buy wedding gifts for a wedding that passed and one this summer.
4. lay out in the sun for at least thirty minutes for a few days when aj is napping to feel like i have some inkling of sun-kissed skin.
5. find a jean skirt for this summer to wear all the time. something not too long, but not too short for these long legs. so hard to do!
5 snacks i enjoy:
(let me first say, i love love love snacks. if you are ever around me and you are hungry, i am your girl! i have snacks with me wherever i go or i just might pass out. and my dad eats them all when we are together. he says "watchya got" and i know what he is thinking.)
1. dry cereal. frosted shredded wheat, special k, total, captain crunch, etc.
2. nuts. all types, but almonds and soy nuts are my fav.
3. dried fruit
4. cheese
5. fresh fruit and veggies.
5 places i've lived:
1. atlanta, ga
2. paris, france (2 months)
3. spofford, new hampshire (summer)
4. columbia, s.c. (grad school)
5 bad habits:
1. adam says i steal the covers at night. whatever.
2. i change out of my work clothes immediately when i get home and put on comfy clothes and wash my face. it is a bad habit b/c some times my husband may only see me in my comfy clothes for days, and miss out on me strutting some "cute day" with the hair and clothes really working for me.
3. i lock doors immediately when entering my house or any house. it is good when i am by myself, but not when i am at someone else's house or i lock my husband outside any time he goes outside or is behind me. there have been days when he is working in the yard and i may lock him out 4 times in one day. he does not really like that very much and always says "my own house!!".
4. wearing cute shoes, eventhough they kill my feet. i am getting irreversable damage, but it has not stopped me.
5. i do not close the top of the toothpaste all the way. i do one twist with the top. it stays on for me, but drives adam crazy. we have seperate toothpaste tubes.
5 places i've worked:
1. bruster's ice cream.
2. j. crew
3. counselor at camp spofford
4. nanny for two days a week for two years.
5. gwinnett medical center
5 things i'd do if i were a billionaire:
1. buy grandparent's old house that my granfather and dad built around berkeley lake.
2. pay off our debt and my parent's debt.
3. quit work and go back to nursing school full-time in this accelerated program for one year. i would have my mom and adam's parents watch aj for a couple days and have a nanny for the other two days of the week. then when i got my degree, i would just work a few days of the month and be a mommy the rest of the days. ( i do love social work, but i would love to challenge myself and become more medical in my area of work)
4. start this environmentally minded christian organization that adam would love to do one day.
5. help my dad start this group home for teen mothers that he has talked about several times.
i am going to tag monica and allison. girls, get to work on your lists.
thanks tays!
