Tagged....and I'm a slacker

I got tagged by Taryn about 3 weeks ago and here is my slacker attempt 3 weeks later!

Five things I was doing 10 years ago:
1) Stressing about our wedding
2) Getting ready to move to Florida
3) Finishing finals at CSUSM
4) Living with a really freaky roommate who accused me of stealing her spoons (what??)
5) Sleeping......man do I miss that!

Five things on my to-do list today:
1) Change Meghan's sheets twice (she's sick)
2) Decorated the mantle, sconces, and mirror for Christmas (all I had the energy for)
3) Worked on our Christmas cards
4) Cleaned the kitchen
5) Went to Wal Mart (I'm sorry, I HATE Wal-Mart with a passion but it's close)....for wrapping paper and got stuck in line behind someone whose debit card kept getting declined, didn't speak English and was screaming at the clerk (seriously - why do people yell at those poor clerks anyway?)


Five of my favorite snacks:
1) Pears & vanilla yogurt (yumm!!)
2) handful of chocolate chips
3) egg nog milk shakes (Manny makes THE BEST ones!)
4) string cheese
5) Starbucks little zucchini walnut muffins

Five Jobs that I've had:
1) Running all checks/deposit slips that got received at the bank through the microfilmer (talk about watching paint dry).
2) Counting all the loose change for the vault at the same bank (close second to #1)
3) Property accountant for a low-income real estate developer
4) Cost Accountant for a tile/flooring adhesive manufacturer
5) Senior Financial Analyst.....i think I need to get a life.

Five Things I'd Do With a Million Dollars
1) Have a huge dinner party where I cook for everyone I know
2) Buy a compound for our whole family
3) Donate a bundle Project HOPE (our local food bank)....we've been helping out there quite a bit and every time it gives us a) perspective and b) the will to want to give more
4) Buy a second home in Seattle
5) Put away half for the kids' college/wedding funds.


Five Things that Made Me Laugh This Week
1) The Big Three whining for money on Capitol Hill (think I can call up Congress and tell them we need a bailout too??)
2) Our dog Honey has serious issues - that dog has a chronic burping problem and it's really disgusting.
3) Meghan and her reindeer buddy: our neighbors have two of those animated grapevine reindeer out on their lawn. Every time she gets out of the car her eyes get huge like she's never seen them before and stands there jabbering at them and then says bye bye when I can finally tear her away.
4) Manny. that's all just Manny - it's really great that even after all these years he still cracks me up....even over really dumb stuff
5) Matt running around with his pajamas on his head and ran right into a wall.

Why Seattle? Are we included in the compound?? I hope so!
