Tara@Dawn until Rusk tagged me. She is one of my bloggy friends from across the pond. I really enjoy her. I like to be a good sport and this is a question meme. So I couldn't resist. I love a answer questions about myself so here it goes.
1. Where were you 10 years ago?
Lets see, 10 years ago I was just starting my college career. I had just moved away from home for the first time into the dorms. I was really excited to be 'on my own' (well as one your own as you can be in college). Jeff and I had been dating for a little over a year. I was all set to begin my nursing school education.
2. Whats on your to-do list today?
I really think that they question should be, what is not on my to-do list.
3. What if you were a Billionaire?
This is kind of funny to me because I often think about what it would be like to win the lottery and have more money than you knew what to do with. Its funny because I don't play the lottery. There is my plan, and yes I have a plan just in case I play one day and win or a rich uncle dies and leaves all the money to me.
I would pay off our house, I would pay off our debt, I would buy a few vacation houses in lovely places, I would then make sure that everyone in my family was taken care of, I would secure a college education for all my children, I would give a lot away to church and other charities and then I don't know. I would have fun and go on a spending spree and by a Tiffany diamond ring just because, fly to Italy for dinner, buy a new car and I don't know maybe be an island.But I would be smart too. I would put a lot away so that my family could live comfortably for years to come.
4. Name 5 places that you have lived?
I have only ever lived in Michigan. I live in my parents house, the dorms, my parents house, a campus apartment, rented a house with my cousin and then with Jeff in our first house. (I know that is more than 5, oh well)
5. What are 3 bad habits that you have?
I don't have any. I'll let Jeff answer this one, if he dares.
6. What kind of snack do I like?
Chocolate, any thing and every thing chocolate. Chips and hummus, fresh fruit, sugar snap peas, popcorn, ice cream and I list could go on and on. I really have not met any food that I don't like.
7. Who will you tag next?
I would like to tag Givinya, Tiffany, Sissy, Shannon, Kelly, Cristin and Karen. I really enjoy all you ladies a great deal and I want to get to know you better. Fear not if you were not chosen, I am in a meme and tagging mood so you will get your turn, I promise.

First of all, were you actually up at 4:23 am doing this post?!
Love this meme...I'm going to playing along this weekend.
I'll play! I'll play! :)
So funny that you spelled my name wrong but I knew you meant me anyway!! I'm doing this as soon as the kids go to bed...
What's not on your To Do list had me laughing because I feel the same way...did that just make sense?
My son told me today that they can train bumble bees to find explosives. My noodle is baked. I can't wrap my mind around that at all.
I am so sorry Cristin. Will you please forgive me? First I like fancy food and now this. What are you going to do with me?
No worries Jen! No one ever spells my name right.. I am so used to it....and I did the meme already...
I love your response to the "To DO" list question. So true.
I have been out of touch for a couple of days...so sorry I haven't done this yet. I so want to play. I love that you dared Jeff to say you had any bad habbits. I'm still chuckling about that.
I know I'm a couple days late on this, and I can only think of two (minor)bad habits of Jen's.
The first is strictly a pet peeve of mine. I grew up in a relatively quiet house and one of the first things I noticed with Jen's family was the underlying noise level. Jen has a tendency to speak more loudly than necessary when she's excited or passionate about the subject at hand, or is still in "work mode". It's really not that loud, but it's not uncommon for me to give her the sign to bring the volume down a notch. Hopefully she realizes it's just a request.
The other one is that she worries too much. Not quite as much as my mother, but she has a much harder time letting things go and having the confidence that we can deal with whatever life dishes out. I think it may be a female thing, although I'm sure exceptions abound.
Finally, Rhea, there has been work done in training bumblebees to find explosives. This has been done by real scientists, not animated ones. The intent is to have them find land mines, and the training regimen is simply conditioning them to think they're finding flower/nectar when they're really following the scent of explosives.
Jeff, thanks for addressing the bumble bee issue!! That's so amazing.
