I've been tagged!

I've been tagged by both Carolyn and Natalie now to do this, so I thought I'd better get going! I had to answer the following questions and then tag someone else.

10 years ago

We had been in our Clinton home just over a year (we moved in on Valentine’s Day 1997) and I was working as Assistant Manager at the Ogden Animal Shelter. Tony was driving truck over the road and was only home on the weekends, many of which we went fishing or camping in the Uintahs. We went to tons of movies and out to dinner all the time (I must say that I do miss that!). We had four pets: our cat Misty, Yorkie-Dutchess, German Shepherd-Smokey, and Yorkie-Crumpet. I had just gone off the Depo-Provera birth control shot so that I could get pregnant in the next year or two (but it just didn’t quite work out that way, of course). I had super long hair and Tony & I both wore glasses at the time. Things sure have changed!

Things on my "to do" list today

1. Read with the kids
2. Laundry
3. Clean the bathrooms (YUCK!)
4. Call my homebuilder to come fix a few things
5. Update my blog

What I would do with a billion dollars

1. Pay off the house.
2. Buy homes for all my & Tony’s sisters, brother and parents.
3. Tithing & lots of charities which help kids or animals
4. Get some serious plastic surgery
5. Buy a crazy cool computer with tons of memory, an awesome camera, and lots of digital scrapbooking supplies for my new addiction. :D

3 bad habits

1. Mindlessly snacking
2. Picking my zits
3. Watching too much TV

3 places I have lived

1. Ithaca, New York
2. St. Louis, Missouri
3. Ogden, Utah

5 jobs I have had

1. Kennel cleaner at Kendell Veterinary Hospital - shout out for poop scoopers! By the way, my sister, Sarah, took the job after I quit and did it for years.
2. Salesperson at Video Express
3. Hostess at El Matador
4. Adoption Supervisor at the Tiffany Adoption Center in the Ogden Animal Shelter
5. Dog groomer at Groomingdales

5 things people don’t know about me
*I’m such an open book that most of you reading this already know WAY more about me than you would ever want to, so this was very difficult. But I tried hard to think of some obscure facts so that maybe a few of you might learn something new!*

1. I’ve been vaccinated against rabies (when I was working at the animal shelter, and it cost the city like $1,200.00!!)
2. I absolutely LOVE gay guys.
3. In high school I took the National Latin test and scored in the top 2%, was on the debate team and competed in Extemporaneous Speaking, won an FHA (Future Homemakers of America) award for cooking an appetizer in a state competition, and one year was on the stage crew.
4. I have never broken a bone.
5. In general, I like bugs but am completely freaked out by earwigs and wasps.

I tag:

Rachel Hood, as soon as her little seven week old Gracie is feeling better from RSV. (We’re praying for you!)
