Tagged...

Julie 'tagged' me with some questions. I guess once you answer them you are suppossed to tag 3 other people. I am a pretty private person, and I know these are suppossed to be lite hearted and fun. I will try not to get too serious with my answers. So Julie, here are the answers...

Where was I 10 years ago:
I was 33 years old, living in Redlands, CA. I was YW Pres. All my girls were home and life was nearly perfect.

5 things on my to-do list:
- Organize my office
- plant flowers in the back yard
- finish reading Lord of the Rings ( I am 3/4 done with the 1st book)
-start doing tummy crunches
-clean the oven

5 snacks I enjoy:
- Ruffles with onion dip
- chocolate chip cookie dough
- brownie mix
- popcorn
- red seedless grapes

3 bad habits:
-saying 'like' too often
- fingerspelling when people are talking
- not getting the dinner menu done for the month

5 places I have lived:
- Houston, TX (2 years) I got baptized in Houston
- Bellflower, CA (2 years) We owned a red bunny, a new zealand red
- Provo, UT (I played, worked and took a sign-language class)
- Riverside, CA (I spent my teenage years there)
- Redlands, CA (We have moved 3 times in Redlands)

5 jobs I've had:
- California Ceramics in Riverside(we deisigned decals and put them on mugs, plates, t-shirts etc. That is where we got the Ziggy pillowcases)
- I can't remember the name of the place in Riverside where I assembles breathing curcuits for emergency vehicles like helicopters, ambulences, etc. I was the fastest assembler and the highest paid. When I moved to BYU and left that job, the owner called me and asked me to come back. He would pay to get me and my stuff home and give me a raise. What an offer, but I stayed and played and BYU. When I came back from Provo and I went back to work there until I was 6 mon. pregnant with Holly. I remember several times on my way to work having to pull over on the freeway and loose my cheerios. I started wearing ponytails so my hair wouldn't get too yucky.
- Lulu's in Orem, Utah. It was a home decor place
- Fiesta Village in Colton. I managed a waterpark and was a lifegaurd
- Collective Journey Scrapbooking specialist (the last word is a joke)

5 things people don't know about me:
- I played the violin
- I taught myself how to play some hymns on the piano
- I sang with Bart's band
- I am shy
- I love nature, mountians, ocean, etc

What would I do if I suddenly became a billionaire:

-of course get rid of all family debt. Of course help the world, all that good stuff. But one thing I would love to do (my girls are going to laugh)I would love to open a place where high school students could come and work, when ever their busy schedules would permit. Since they all have to earn money for school trips, pay for things their families can't afford, etc. This would be a place where they could come and get tutoring if they need a help. Part of their work would be to take piano lessons. I don't know what the actual work would be, but probably something like assembly work, etc. Something that wouldn't take a bunch of training. The place would be near the high school so they could walk if need be.

Okay, probably way too much info. But there you have it. No tagging for me.

I love that you have just always wanted that place for high school students, and yes, I did laugh
