Mongoosemom tagged me for a little meme, so here goes:

1. WHAT DID YOU DO 10 YEARS AGO?

Ten years ago, I was facing my most difficult transition as a parent. For me, going from three to four kids after Sam was born was really hard. I think it was because I had kids in school, so I no longer had the option of just staying in my pjs, and being lazy when the baby hadn’t slept the night before. Plus, my kids were all so young–7, 6, 3, and newborn–grocery shopping was challenging, to say the least, and Chewydad was traveling a lot for work.
We were living in Atlanta, renting what had to be the ugliest house I have ever seen. It was “modern”–meaning it had a fabulous interior, but they just did whatever the heck they wanted to on the outside, so the front had these bizarre things jutting out everywhere–like the staircase and an upstairs closet. It was very weird.

2. FIVE ITEMS ON YOUR TO-DO LIST TODAY:

1-Call about guitar lessons for kids
2-Bake my Amish friendship bread
3-Schedule getting my mammies grammed
4-Go to dinner with girlfriends
5-Swim in our pool

3. SNACKS I ENJOY:

Oh my–I just enjoy anything called a snack!! Chips and dip, crackers, banana….Although really if it’s a “snack” I tend to like salty. Now, if you put the label “dessert” on it, that’s a whole ‘nother story!

4. WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE A BILLIONAIRE?

This is a hard one. I know it would involve Africa in some way…helping the very poor over there. Make sure all of my nieces and nephews could go to college–fully funded. Sponsor more Compassion children. And travel and show my children the amazing world we live in!

I tag Molly, Nicole, and Skerrib.
