Teri tagged me for this one, and since blogging is always more fun than packing for vacation. . .
1. What was I doing 10 years ago?
Ten years ago, lost boy #1 was a toddler and #2 was on the way. I had started sewing enough nursing and baby clothes that for my birthday/Christmas gift, Mom traded up my Singer for my first Viking. I baked a lot of our bread and other goodies, but hadn’t learned to make cheesecake yet. I also joined Martin Loopers that year. Larry was an associate pastor in central Illinois and we were renting a cute 2 bedroom bungalow.
2. What are 5 things on my to-do list for today (not in any particular order):
My to-do list is crazy long, but I’m going to take a cue from one of my favorite Toby Keith songs. . .
* take the time to lick the beaters with a certain little boy when he helps me decorate his 6th birthday cake
* call my grandma to decide when we’ll see her on our vacation next week
* sit on the couch and watch our family night movie instead of wandering off to pack some more
* let twirly girl help make the pizza instead of being in a hurry and doing it myself
* nurse the baby without trying to do something else “while I’m sitting here”
3. Snacks I enjoy:
Chocolate. . .especially cookies, but definitely chocolate.
4. Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
Times have changed. . .didn’t the question used to say “millionaire”? Anyhow, I’m too frugal for our everyday life to change much. Ongoing donations to our church and to Lutherans for Life would be at the top of the list. After paying off any debt, we’d probably invest a chunk for retirement. After that. . .save it to use as needed (kids’ education, new vehicle, occasional vacation).
5. Places I have lived:
Three out of four I states: Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa. And now Wyoming. Mostly small towns. . .except for Indiana, where I lived in Indianapolis as a teenager and Fort Wayne as a new bride.
6. Jobs I have had:
Most of my work has been of the unpaid sort; every so often Social Security sends me a letter telling me I haven’t worked enough. As for paying jobs, in high school I worked a few months at a dry cleaners and about a year at Stride Rite. I babysat very infrequently, mostly older children. I then worked 5 summers at the library, usually helping with the summer reading program. My second year of college I had a stipend positon as costume manager for the theatre. After college I worked a few months for Northwest Fabrics & Crafts~in Illinois before getting married, and then in Indiana as a newlywed. Since then, I was a Creative Memories consultant for a couple years and most recently did sewing for hire (costumes for our dance studio plus an occasional sale on eBay). I’m currently happily unemployed. 
7. 6 Peeps I would like to know more about (in no particular order)
One of these days I’ll get around to this one (assuming I’m the Cheryl on your list)!
