10 years ago:

That would be Feb. 1998, right? I was in Taiwan, going to Chaiyi Christian Hospital every other day, undergoing various and sundry tests to find out why I could not get pregnant. I think we'd just gone through a failed IUI and I was pretty bummed. Funny how things have changed.


5 Things on my to do list today:
1. Fold the laundry (this won't get done)
2. Have FHE
3. Read to Eliseo and Lily
4. Get through Chap 7 in my Human Anatomy book
5. Force the kids to pick up the huge mess they've made of the house

Snacks I enjoy:

Guavas. Mangoes. Papayas. Lichees. Dragon Eyes. Asian pears. Huo Long Guo. Wax apples. Raspberries. Strawberries.

What would I do if I were a billionaire:
I would buy Grant a farm, then build an environmentally friendly house on it. I would buy 2 vehicles to run on biodiesel fuel. I would spend lots of money on local (or at least fair trade) organic, biodynamic and wild caught food. Then I would counteract all my environmental karma by flying the family all over the world at every chance we got. I'd save the rest.

3 Bad habits I have:
1. picking my nose when I think no one is looking
2. not reading my scriptures every day
3. pretending to listen to my kids instead of REALLY listening to them

5 places I've lived:
1. La Grande, Oregon
2. Provo, Utah
3. Kearns, Utah
4. Chaiyi, Taiwan
5. Bloomfield, New Mexico

5 jobs I've had:
1. Various TA jobs in Chemistry at BYU
2. Lab Tech at Myriad Genetics in SLC
3. ESL teacher in Taiwan
4. Um..I think that was all

Things people don't know about me:
I can't stand fiddle music but I'm trying to endure because Grant loves it. I love to play Moonlight Sonata on the piano. My abdominal muscles are separated. I used to be a MAJOR food baby. My parents almost named me Annette. I've had my nose pierced, twice. I wanted to be a neurosurgeon from third grade through freshman year of college. I always think everyone else's marriage is better than mine.


I'm only tagging 2 people because besides Julie I only know 2 people who have blogs. One being her SIL!

I think we all pretend we are listening to our children without really listening. I do it all the time and feel bad about it,but then do it again. Really they do talk a lot, who can blame us. I love your Billionaire plans, very cool. Could you do all that for my family too. Yay!!
