What was I doing 10 years ago?
- I was home from college for the summer and working at some boring office job I found through the temp service. I did a different one each summer so I can't keep them straight.
- I had just started dating my now-DH that February. He left for the summer for some ROTC training camp so I'm sure I was very sad.
- The most exciting thing was I was getting ready to leave for LONDON for study abroad in August!
- Chocolate. Anything.
- Ice cream. Preferably chocolate ice cream, or ice cream with chocolate on it.
- Anything gummy or chewy, like red licorice.
- Chips and homemade guacamole.
- Did I mention chocolate?
- Schedule cleaners for the living room carpet and couch. Even though we just had the carpets done a few months ago, it already looks terrible. Having a potty-training 3-year-old is not helping.
- List some of my mountain of stuff I've bought for eBay so I feel slightly less guilty about bringing more junk into the house when I yard sale.
- Read and plan my Sunday School lesson for tomorrow. How did it get to be almost Sunday again so fast?
- Go to the pool with Maren and work on my skin can...uh, tan.
- Work on my swap package for Kari. Tell my muse to hurry up and get her little heinie over here, as the deadline is approaching!
- Rent us a week at a beach house. Heck, maybe two weeks. I'm going beach-crazy right now!
- Have all the carpets in my downstairs ripped out and replaced with beautiful hardwood floors and fabulous area rugs. (see the carpet cleaning note in the To Do list section)
- Schedule a vacation to somewhere tropical for me and the DH and drop Maren off at her grandparents' on the way.
- Book a trip to Disney World for October for all of us so we could see the Halloween decorations
- Buy a whole new wardrobe from Anthropologie. I love their clothes so, so much but they are just so expensive.
- Bookstore employee
- Office drone
- Scrapbook store employee
- Mom, which mean yesterday alone I did at least five separate jobs: personal chef, chauffeur, maid, construction foreman, wrangler.
- I still haven't put our wedding album together, and we've been married for 6 years now. My excuse is I don't have anywhere to display the finished album anyway.
- I've recently decided that I think it would be fun to keep chickens. My HOA does not agree however, so that will have to be postponed.
- When I sleep I have to have the covers pulled up to my chin. If it's hot, I'll just use a sheet, but I have to have something. It's a weird security issue.
- I love rhubarb!
- My all-time favorite dessert is Texas Sheet Cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. That's heaven on a plate, it is.
And because I hate posting without photos, here's an old one of some great sheet music from the antique store and some yard sale jewels. Have a great weekend! I'm off to the pool. :)
I've been married five years and I never ordered my photos! I got so many from friends and then I was moving and starting a whole new life in CA, that it has just slipped by.
ReplyDeleteHey Heidi, could you let me know where you studied in London? My daughter is making plans to do that in January. Any input you could bring to the table would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Heidi!

Umm, I have been married for 11 years and our photos sit in a box- just sitting in that momement probably for another few years yet.
ReplyDeleteWhat great responses! I really enjoyed reading them ...the covers up to your chin was pretty funny.
ReplyDeleteAnd hey, thank you thank you for the antique store plug! :0)
This was fun!

PS. I see you are an ebay seller? Do you have a link to your ebay page? I also sell online there, too.
