http://arteypico.blogspot.com/Karlana Tagged Me…
I’ve had a pretty long streak between tags, but last night Karlana got me, so here goes:
Here are the rules:
1. The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5-6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they?ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
4. Let the person who tagged you know when you?ve posted your answer.
************
1) What was I doing 10 years ago?
Hmmmmmm…that’s a good one. I always remember things by the benchmarks of my children’s ages. So…ten years ago, Lora would have been 11, Daniel almost 7, David 4, and Sarah 1. And that was all! I only had 4 kids then! Sheesh…I must have had a LOT of spare time on my hands. NO! Just kidding! Anyway, we were still relatively new to homeschooling and I must have just been getting ready to finish up teaching 5th grade to Lora and 1st grade to Daniel. Wasn’t pregnant yet with Michael, but that would have been coming in a couple of months.
2) What are five things on your to-do list for today?
I’m heading out to do my weekly shopping in a couple of hours. I have a ton of laundry to catch up on when I get back. I need to straighten up our schoolroom. Fix supper. Work out. If I’m lucky, I’ll find some time to work on an article I need to finish for a website I write for.
3) What snacks do I enjoy?
I’m trying really hard to control my snacking right now. If I’m just letting it all hang out, I’ll always go for something sweet. Nowadays, I’m sticking to fruit.
4) Things I would do if I were a billionaire?
I’d pay off all of our debt, get my parents and his parents squared nicely away for the rest of their lives, make sure all of my kids (and grandkids) had a nice nestegg set aside for school and other stuff, and then I’d focus on the children in our country who have been left behind and need help to get past the situations in their lives that are setting them up to fail.
5) Three Bad Habits
Too much coffee, too much internet, not enough kicking back
6) 5 places I have lived?
Denver, Colorado
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Middleton, Wisconsin
Madison, Wisconsin
Lahaina, Maui
7) 5 Jobs I have had
Waitress
Secretary
Certified Nursing Assistant
Daycare Provider
MOM!
Six suckers, er people I want to know more about?
1. Solomon - because I have recently discovered his blog and I love it!
2. Lora - OK, so I don’t need to know much more about my daughter, but you’d love her!
3. Charla - A super nice lady I “met” a few weeks ago and have a lot in common with!
4. Lorie - Another really nice mommie blogger I share a lot of commonalities with!
5. Ellen - A blogger who I’ve been running into lately who is totally sweet!
6. Dave - Last, but absolutely not least…One of my very favorite bloggers…EVER!

Thanks for your very kind words, your visits to my blog and….I’m putting this on my list of “blog To Do’s” as I have 2 memes that I haven’t done yet. I’ve been so busy getting my blogs transferred over and learning WP and working FT that I’ve done nothing else. Also I’ve been deciding what to say on my memes. So….I’ll get this one done soon. Thank You
Hugs!
Ellen

Hey that’s me! Wow, that’s incredible on the same day we both threw a “favorite” at each other. Wow. thanks.
Yeah, it’s that time of the night when I start “visiting” and I decided to read all your questions/answers (after all I’m still trying to figure out what SAH wife is-oh hey now that I’m typing it, does it mean Stay At Home?)
But it was a hectic day; I got knocked “of the air” for 3-4 hours again today. And I don’t even know why this time. Just mixing and matching plugins, but I think it was the hosting co.!
So back to you-that sounds like a very full life. Congrats. Very rich. Albeit, not quite bat free.

I realized my first comment didn’t go through. Let me try again. I think because I put a link to my post maybe that affected it:
