"TAG---I'm It!"
If anyone is interested, here goes:
WHERE I WAS 10 YEARS AGO
Coaching Jenny’s volleyball team; refereeing the fights over Kristin’s & Brooke’s stuff; writing letters to Ty on his mission in Italy; finding out that Jeff kept the cash others paid their restaurant tab with, then charged the bill to Dad; teasing Matt about “oooh sho, we tho, hash-ah-mo,toop-dis-cuss”; The fun never stops!
FIVE THINGS ON MY "TO DO" LIST TODAY
1. Dad & I are painting the ceiling in our bathroom, then re-plastering the walls. 2. Buy milk before the ice storm hits 3. Sleep in tomorrow morning, due to pending ice storm; 4. Re-organize Visiting Teaching assignments 5. post this blog
IF I BECAME A BILLIONAIRE, I WOULD...
Pay as much tithing and church offerings as John Huntsman! Set up wedding fund, for T-Bone, K, J, & M-Dog; help married kids to buy their own homes; get new kitchen counters & appliances; take an amazing family trip to Hawaii! help my brother pay off our family home on Oxnard street; get a cool Lexus for Daddy!
THREE BAD HABITS
1. Tuning out Dad & Matt when I have lots of church stuff to do;
2. Procrastinating starting my fitness & better health program
3. Complaining about things I can’t change or control
FIVE PLACES I'VE LIVED
*France
*Westwood
*San Diego
*Boston
*TEXAS!!!
FIVE JOBE I'VE HAD
1. My first job at the counter at Chuck Burger in Topanga Plaza Mall
2. Salesperson at Judy’s
3. Salesperson at Bullock’s
4. American Express Travel
5. PTA President
SOMETHING MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME
In 1967, at the age of 16, I traveled to France with a youth group. One weekend I went from there to visit my brother, John, who was serving his mission in Berlin. One afternoon, we took the subway into East Berlin, behind the Iron Curtain. I remember all the guys with machine guns, and seeing Check-Point Charlie, where East German guards would search cars with mirrors and dogs to prevent people from escaping to freedom in West Berlin. Being an American, meant much more to me after that experience.

Milestone for Matt
Matt got his braces off last Thursday! Hallelujah! He is happy to be “wireless” at long last. We are happy to be done with monthly orthodontist payments and office visits. Now Matt can turn his attention to completing his Eagle Scout project (on March 29th), taking driver’s ed, and enrolling in Karen Dillard’s College Prep class…NOT! Matt’s Milestone is also one for Mom & Dad---the end of the line for orthodontia in the family. Neither Dad nor I plan to get braces...even clear ones.
