Yes! I got tagged, I'm so excited. So for your reading pleasure:
20 years ago...
1. I was 7 and we were making the move from Kentucky to hot and dry Arizona. My mom would hide little goodies in our backpacks and for every rest stop we could open a pocket and find a new goody to keep us entertained.
2. It took me 2 years to get rid of my southern accent. I tried so hard but sometimes it would just come out. On the reservation a southern accent was not cool.
3. We lived in a hogan, dirt floor and all. I did my homework by oil lamp.
10 years ago...
1. I was Battalion Commander over my JROTC troops.
2. Was accepted into the U.S. Naval Academy but couldn't pass the vision test and didn't go.
3. I was President of the Math Club.
5 years ago...
1. I skateboarded everywhere. At the parks, on the way to school, etc.
2. Broke off an engagement to my ex-fiance.
3. Sent care packages to my brother while he was on a mission in Brazil.
3 years ago...
1. I had just gotten married the year before and we bought our first house.
2. I just finished my B.S in Chemical Engineering at ASU and landed a job at Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station in Tonopah, AZ. It pretty much could have been in California because driving 1 1/2 hr to work each way was killer.
3. We went to Disney four times that year (because we're rich)
1 year ago...
1. Quit APS and started with SRP to be closer to home because...
2. I was pregant! (exclamation for emotions of excitement, pain, worry, anticipation, misery, etc.) I'm not stranger to being preggers, it was the 4th time.
3. My brother got married to his beautiful wife in Portland.
So far this year...
1. I've been paying off debt and have been working on this thing called a budget. It's been great for me to see where I spend frivilously and where my money could be better spent.
2. We bought a new Honda Accord, which we are quickly beginning to hate.
3. I'm starting to gain a better appreciation for our dog. I've always hated bending down to pick up trash or food. Bimmer is our personal-don't-have-to-move-a-finger-or-press-a-button-vacuum-cleaner. Just call (or whistle), point (usually with toe), and voila. The mess is gone. This goes for spit up as well and I'm hoping vomit too.
Yesterday I...
1. Did some laundry and cleaning. Actually it was more like "picking up".
2. Played with James the entire day. I love weekends and evenings because I get to hang out with my son. I think working gives me a better appreciation for the time that I do have with him.
3. Went to church and slapped some kids around... Not. Just Jana's kid. AS IF!
Today I...
1. Went to work .
2. Ate a crappy salad at Wendy's for lunch because my co-worker ditched me.
3. Am blogging trying to get Bimmer to entertain James so he'll stop crying.
Tomorrow I will...
1. Go to work on time since I have a meeting that starts at 7am.
2. Eat.
3. Poop.
In the next year...
1. We will buy a dining table.
2. Hope we'll have another baby, preferably a boy to play with James. Well, I guess it would be vice versa now wouldn't it? But if it's a girl I guess we'd keep her.
3. Go to Disneyland. It's been over a year, Mike and I are having withdrawals.
Tag you're it; Breanne, Jana, and Jenny

That's a cool quiz. I might actually accept the tagging on that one. MIGHT.
And I learned like 50 new things about you that I had no idea of. "We gotta talk".
That WAS a neat run-down. At first I thought: She's crazy to want another kid within a year. Must be one of those "I gotta have all my kids fast" / "baby factory" kind of girls. By definition, anyone who pops them out 16 months or less from eachother...you know who you are.
Then, (because I never was good at math) I started counting when he was probably born plus if you got prego right now and then how many months older my guy will be from the next one and I thought: Okay, she's cool.
And yes, I'm only four months shy of absolutely loathing myself.
Holy cow Bianca, you're 27?! You're ancient! :) And by the way, little girls are the BEST!! I wish I was having another one! (But I'm sure I'll come to like this little boy too... )
Hey Bianca I say pop'em out as quickly as possibly, it's oh so much fun!!! Oh wait you're only 27, you've got all the time in the world, but still close is fun. Kind of. Sometimes. Well when they are sleeping it's fun.
Glad you loved being tagged! I love getting tagged too. I meant to tell you, but I was getting ready for my vacation and it slipped through the cracks of my To-Do list.
Wow- A JROTC girl- I never would have expected! I learned a lot of neat things too!
Very funny and insightful :)
How come you guys hate the Accord?
Another baby? I kind of wish I had had them closer together, because it would have been easier to be pregnant when Thomas was younger. How is Mike? He married a girl from Oregon? I am glad that you are not driving to Tonopah anymore :)
Sarah - I'm very ambitious and have ambitious goals.
Goal #1 - have 4 children.
Goal #2 - have them all before i'm 30, we got started a little late so it's been pushed back to 32.
Goal #3 - Mike will get snipped and I will get a tummy tuck to fix my ruined stomach. It's really gross. Seriously. Yucky. It will never go back on it's own. EVER.
I should also mention I HATED being pregnant. I think I will always HATE it. But necessary for end goal, we'll see how it plays out.
Adriana - the Honda is a good car, don't get me wrong. BUT we like FAST ones! 4 cylinder = unfast.
p.s. out the wheelers link that is their blog
"check out"
"The mess is gone. This goes for spit up as well and I'm hoping vomit too." haha...that's gross.
Well, I didn't really know you before and still don't really "know" you, so learned a lot about you. Never would have pegged you as such things...you're pretty cool :)
The Naval Academy!!...Impressive.
