I've Been Tagged

A friend from high school, Kristin, tagged me so here it goes:



What was I doing 10 years ago

Actually, I was working about 3 jobs to pay off some of my college bills. I was home from the summer, wondering if I should return to the small Christian college that I had been attending.I decided not to go back up until the night after college had started again. The Lord had woken me up from my sleep and told me that I needed to go back. Although I had no desire to go back and was sure that it would not work out since the semester had already begun, I woke my mom and dad up and told them I had to go back. I thought that my Mom would be so angry with me for not having made this decision earlier. But, she said, " I know, God told me this too. We'll call in the morning and then I'll drive you there." Everything worked out, I met some of my best friends that year and met a cute new transfer, Jeff. We were married a year and a half later.


My favorite snacks
Homemade salsa and chips, by far! Oh and Blue Bell Banana Pudding Ice Cream! It's a pregnancy thing...I hope! Or I will have an even harder time getting the weight off. It's delicious.

5 things on my to-do list today

1. Go to the pool with the kids
2. Feed my Mom's dog at her house
3. Exercise...I'll cross that one off after going to the pool. Chasing the kids around is quite a work out. You'd think I'd be a skinny little thing, wouldn't you?
4. Go to the grocery store
5. Clean my house... Now, that's wishful thinking.



Things I would do if I were a Billionaire
Tithe, pay off all debts as well as all of our familys' debts and I think that would about cover it! We have a big family!:)


5 jobs I've had

1. Taught swim lessons
2. Cashier
3. Lifeguard
4. Elementary Teacher
5. Middle School Teacher


5 places I've lived

1. Cincinatti, Ohio
2. Charlotte NC
3. Clearwater Fl
4. Indian Trail NC
5. Stallings NC



5 random things people wouldn't know about me

1. I love to go to yard sales. Susanna and I go all of the time. It's our time together. We always finish the morning off with a Chick-Fil-A biscuit.
2. I am a homebody. I like to travel for a day or two, but always enjoy "being home".
3. I love to play cards. I think it is so fun to play with friends and family. And win.
4. I cannot take oral liquid medicine. I think that if it were up to taking it or dying, I'd have to tell everyone I love them and will see them soon. Maybe not that extreme, but I will gag and gag.
5. I get a kick out of playing pranks on people. Yes. Still. Do. I know, it's time to grow up, but they are so fun. I even have one up my sleeve right now. It's payback for a prank that was played on us at Christmas time. It involved 2 light up reindeer in our yard and that's all I will say. Maybe I'll post a picture of the payback scene.



5 cd's I'd have to have with me on a deserted island :

Any Hillsong Cd
Cece Winans... reminds me of my Dad
Hillsong for kids...It's what I'm used to hearing
Chris Tomlin
Roy D Mercer...Don't ask...My brother in law, Tim, got us hooked on these. They will crack you up. I guess it's that prank thing again.




I tag Tina and Angie... They are the only ones I know that blog that haven't been tagged. And that's if you count Angie, she hasn't blogged in about a year.:)
