I was tagged by Melinda. This one is kind of fun...a walk down memory lane for me...here it goes.
20 years ago I was...15 years old (opps, did I just give my age away?). Honestly, all I can imagine I was doing was wishing I was one year older so I could drive and probably aggrevating my older sister, Sabrina...I was pretty good at that :-)
10 years ago I was...working at Safeco Insurance (my first "real" job and start to my insurance career), living in Rathdrum ID and just about to get engaged. Marc proposed just after his birthday which is Aug. 14th.
5 years ago I was...one month into my new job which I am still at today (yes, still insurance...can't get out once you get in...ask anyone in insurance :-)).
3 years ago I was...about to give up hope on having children. Actually August 2005 was the due date of the large payment for IVF. So 3 years ago we were struggling with many emotions but made the payment and went through the process. It was extremely hard physically, emotionally and financially...but I am so greatful we did it. I wouldn't trade it for the world. We got the absolute best result a Mom and Dad could ask for :-)
So far this past year I...found a wonderful caring daycare for my children (we love you DeeDee!) which helped to make it easier to go back to work after Marcus. I figured out how to keep control of 3 children under age 2 and still be sane! I have supported Marc in his decision to sell his business and building and start a brand new career (a dangerous one at that!). Oh, I also cleaned out my pantry and filing cabinets and sold lots of baby clothes and started a blog :-)
Yesterday I...baked cookies, hung out with great friends and played with my kids all day long (I love weekends).
Next year I will...go on vacation. I don't know where, but the last 2 years my vacation days were used for maternity leave. It will be so nice to get those vacation days back and actually take a real vacation. Plus, Marc will have a great job so we can afford a vacation again...maybe Disneyland??? :-)
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
