1. What was I doing 10 years ago?
Well 10 years ago I was working in a restrant cooking and living in Ohio. I was also playing mommy and care giver to my husband grandmother who was living with us at the time.

2. What are 5 things on my to-do list today?
Well I have a ton of laundry to do which might I add I have been doing non-stop for days now it seems. I also have some yard work to do and then some general housekeeping. Then of course some knitting but most of all I have to go and pick up my son from the last day of school. Hurray! Not that it's going to last long because he has summer school.

3. Snacks I enjoy
I love anything that is sweet and chocolate. I might add though that dark chocolate is my favorite, although not too dark.

4. Things I would do if I were a billionaire
Travel all around the world (especially Europe), pay off all my daughter's school loans, open a yarn shop and pass the knitting bug along to others (it would also have to include quilting so the store would have to be huge), lastly I would just enjoy life and family.

5. Places I've lived
Homer, Mich., Richmond,Ca., San Diego,Ca., Hampton,Va., some little itty bitty town in West Va.,a few places near Toledo,Oh. and then now at my new resting place Kelso,Wa.

6. Jobs I've had
Well I got tell you it seems like I have done a lot of different things I started off right out of high school in the Navy but didn't get very far expect to Alaska for three months in the dead of winter. Then I cooked in different kinds of restrants for a long time. Then I did some care giving because I throughly enjoy older people and the wisdoms that they pass along. Which lead me to going to school for a while for nursing but that has not worked out to date every time that I go back some thing seems to get in the way. Now I just don't think it is going to happen. Lately I have just been a mom and a part-time domestic goddess for others.

Dropped out of sight

I guess I really did drop out of sight for awhile and really did not mean to but my dad went into the hospital and everything here has been a little touch and go with me. Well I am back on track and have been knitting like crazy. I mean what else do you do when you can't do anything else but sit. My spoilee's gift is done and I just have a few more little things to do and get. Finally found the perfect yarn but had to go out of town to get it (my local LYS had nothing). But a road trip is always good and you get to see different things. I am really jealous of all of you who put yarn in a cauldron and come out with beautifulness. I wish all my other Griff's good luck at Quidditch and let's kick butt and take names.

In the garden

I have been just slaving away in the castle gardens. The kitchen will appreciate my efforts though along with all the herbs that have planted and then pruned. There is a great big beast that keeps laying and stomping with in the gardens and the herb beds. I keep trying to catch it but have been primarily unsuccessful. So maybe I need a different approach to this problem, I don't know. Well I still have lots of work to do and not enough time. There does need to be a time in which to rest also so off to bed with me.
