Tag - you're it!!!

Czarina tagged me. I've never been tagged and I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to do, but I'm very excited about my first tag! :)



10 years ago:

- I was 15

- I was in the 10th grade

- My best friends were Julie, Emily & Marissa (still 3 of my best friends - miss y'all!!!)

- I had a learners permit and drove a champagne (more brown than champagne though) Land Cruiser (which I totaled in September 1998)

- I played volleyball. Ha!

- I was obsessed with the movie Titanic (saw it in the theater 4 times)

- My favorite stores to shop in were Rainbow and Gadzooks (my mom hated both those stores)


- For SB98 I went to Destin, FL

- Spent a lot of the summer at the Short's cabin on the river



Things on my "to do" list today:

- Make birthday bags for church (March birthdays)

- Go to grocery store

- Make reservations for when Mom comes

- Go to date auction on campus and watch friends get auctioned off to raise money for a Ross student who is sick.

- Go to Aileen's and hang out with girls (didn't make it - auction was too long)

- Deliver some bread



What I would do if I suddenly became a billionaire:

- Pay for medical school

- Buy a house...or 2

- Adopt a baby Dominican

- Have a baby

- Give money to St. Jude

- Go global with Daily Bread

- Travel the world and live in many different places

- Become a foster parent for AGAPE

- Take all my friends & family on a big trip

- Give money to family

- Give money to Christian education

- Ryan wants to own a professional team...maybe the Reds

- Start my own line of clothing



Three bad habits:

- I bite my nails. I go through spurts where I don't and then if something makes me nervous, I'm back to biting.

- When my hair comes out in the shower I put it on the wall and usually forget to get it off.

- When I take the last diet coke out of the fridge I forget to put another one in.



5 Jobs I've had:

- Old Country Store in Casey Jones Village (Museum & Train Store) - I worked at the fudge counter, in the gift shop, as a hostess in the restaurant and in the train store/museum.

- Sincerely Yours

- Jackson Christian PreSchool

- Peek Marketing Corporation

- Frasier, Dean & Howard, PLLC

- Daily Bread (I know that makes 6, but I couldn't leave it off!)



5 Things people don't know about me:

- I still sleep with my baby blanket that my great-grandmother made for me when I was born. (Ryan doesn't mind. It usually stays between my pillow and the wall.)

- I turn my hair dryer on low when I want to relax. It started in high school in the winter when I was cold. Continued in college when I was trying to block out noise in the dorm.

- Something that stresses me out everyday is the fact that I can't get my eyebrows waxed here. I've had them waxed regularly since high school. I'm horrible at plucking them myself.

- I worry about the values of our society (or should I say lack of values) more than is probably healthy. I'm afraid it's going to only get worse and it scares me to raise children in such a moral-less (is that a word) world.

- I emailed the White House and copied Dick Cheney on my email this past week.



I tag Agee, Courtney Herda, and anyone else who reads my blog and has a blog of their own! :)

Hey Ashley! What's your email address and I'll send you an invitation to be a "contributer" to the recipe blog...

HAHA! I totally leave hair on the shower wall too. I always freak out when we have guest spend the night, and when they take a shower, I get paranoid that I forgot to get the hair off the wall (but i guess it's better than a clogged bath drain:).

The first two things on your "what people don't know about me" took me back.... I forgot about Ashley's wierd sleeping/ relaxing habits. Glad to see you still do them :)

Can I ask what you emailed the White House about?
