Tagged by Jen

I've been tagged by my SIL Jen, so here it is:
Rules: Answer each question about yourself, then tag 5 people by posting their names.


10 Years Ago: Ten years ago I was pregnant with my second child, Chase who will be 10 in July. I was staying at home taking care of my 3 year old Mitch and fighting to keep 2 dogs that hated each other with a bloody passion apart. I had just survived a horrible health year the year before but was still recovering from it. 10 years ago in August was when I met President Monson in a sealing room of the SLC Temple. I was living in Albuquerque, NM in the Volcano Cliffs ward. Scott was working (and still is) with Intel Corp. in his 5th year with them.

Things On My To Do List Tomorrow: (I wrote this on a Saturday night) Wake up, go to church, stay awake at church, come home and have lunch, go to choir practice, go to scout committee meeting, take a nap, have some quality video game time with my kids, dinner, go to stake choir practice, eat a diet ice cream bar (thanks Cindy) and then to bed!

Snacks I enjoy: Enjoy? or eat because I'm trying to lose weight? Hmmm...well if I'm not dieting I love everything that makes me fat...cheetos, Route 44 diet vanilla coke from Sonic, cookies, diet rootbeer, chips, diet cream soda, chocolate, diet cherry coke, Ritz crackers, diet orange, Lindor truffles, Route 44 diet vanilla coke from Sonic (my whole family drinks diet soda to support my diabetic husband). While dieting I like 100 calorie packs of anything, beef jerky, gum, water, great value brand sugar-free peach drink mix, light yogurt, dark chocolate, healthy choice chocolate ice cream bars

What would I do if I were suddenly made a billionaire? I like Jen's idea of paying off all my family's debts and my own. Buy a bit bigger one story home with a bedroom for each child on the other side of the house than Scott's and mine. Cleaning crew. Cooking crew. Upgrade our cars. Find a charity I believe in and give. Travel, travel, travel. Invest, invest, invest. Maybe hair extensions so I can know what it feels like to have long luxurious hair cascading down my back.

3 Of My Bad Habits: 1. I twist my hair into knots then have to pull the little knot out - I read that it's an OCD thing...nice 2. Lazy 3. Procrastination

5 places I have lived: San Dimas, CA; Provo, UT; Albuquerque, NM; Hillsboro, OR; Gilbert, AZ

Jobs that I have had: Swim Instructor/Lifeguard, Winchell's, Program Coordinator for EFY office at BYU, Travel Agent, Disney Store Cast Member, office worker, professional garage sale haver

Things most people don’t know about me: I know American Sign Language, I have had chemo treatments for a tumor, I twist my hair into knots then have to pull the knots out then absentmindedly throw the knots on the floor only to scare myself later thinking the knots are little spiders invading my house.

I tag everyone that reads my tag

see...it wasn't that hard and it's fun to read. I just think it's a good excuse to write something about yourself instead of ALWAYS writing about your kids! Btw...did I tell you about the program you can use to download all your blog entries into a book? If you're interested I'll get you the info. xo

That was a great "get to know Pam" tag. I wish I had it in me to do all the tags that go around, Im lazy, I would rather read them.

I feel like I know you so much better. Maybe I'll get the "itch" and answer the questions too!

Oh my gosh! What a great tag. I totally laughed out loud at the little spiders line at the end:) OH - by the way - you're scheduled to clean our church building in June:) Really - you're on the cleaning schedule I just got today. Or else we have new Jorgenson's in the ward that I haven't met yet:)

Has my absence made your heart grow fonder?

By Pam Jorgensen -
Just wondering... I'm back I'm behind I'm intimidated There is no way that I can "catch up" with this blog.  It's a daunting task.  It's one reason I'm so far behind!  I want to post but then I see the enormous amount of time and posts that have past since my last and I walk away. So...I will sum up.   Sorry...wordy and no pictures. After our fun trip to Moberly, MO, we joined Jen, her kids and Gma J in a caravan to SLC for the Plewe Family Reunion.  We were so excited to be traveling with family making travel life more fun with cousins!  We did have fun but the hellish travel trends continued to plague us!  At one stop Gma locked her keys in the car...we waited for a LONG time till AAA could come and break us in.  This put us into our first stop pretty late but nothing unmanageable.  However, when we got to our hotel in Cheyenne, WY the hotel we had a reservation at (and called to confirm just a couple hours before) had given our ...
