10 years ago: (Jan 1998) I was pregnant with Kira and sicker than a dog. Christopher was 15 months old and one of my greatest joys. Daniel was working at Novell and being the most loving and patient husband ever (some things never change). I was taking care of Kaylee while Charity (one of my close friends) worked. We were packing up our apartment to move into a bigger apartment that we were going to share with my mom (she had separated with her husband). I was team teaching 5 year olds in primary with Daniel. I hated it and knew it was going to force me to become inactive (look how much I've grown up).
5 things on my to-do list today:
1. Go to the gym and run
2. Teach 6 unruly 1st graders how to use flash cards
3. Help Kira finish her Spain report
4. Talk to Daniel to devise a plan of how to keep me from going mental
5. Drive my mom around to pick up job applications
Snacks I enjoy:
1. Cinnamon rolls (especially from Cinabon)
2. Potato chips with ranch dip
3. Red Swedish fish
4. Cheese (most varieties)
5. Chocolate covered pretzels
Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
1. Pay off our debt
2. Build a new building for our school
3. Visit Europe
4. Take Kira on a cruise (she wants to go on one so badly that she is saving up for it. She already has $34.00)
5. Start the process of making my dream come true of running a program to aid homeless people to get back on their feet.
3 of my bad habits:
1. Procrastination
2. Committing to do more then I am capable of
3. Biting my finger nails
5 places I have lived:
1. San Jose, CA
2. Las Vegas, NV
3. Tremonton, UT
4. Provo, UT
5. Hillsboro, OR
5 jobs I have had:
1. Pizza Delivery Person
2. CNA (certified nursing assistant) at Bear River Nursing Home
3. Phone Operator and Customer Service Rep. at Granite Furniture
4. Book Seller and SPT at Borders
5. Celestial Housekeeper at the LDS Portland Temple
5 things people don't know about me:
1. During my childhood my family was homeless for over a year.
2. I am very insecure with my level of intelligence and I often feel uneducated.
3. I was the drama club president at my high school during my junior year.
4. I have traveled through all of the continental United States except for Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.
5. I don't know who my real father is and probably never will.
I tag Maralee, Dori, Ariana, and, Kylene (4 is all I can come up with because everyone else I read has already been tagged).

I loved learning new things about you! BTW- you are very intelligent...I think all of us mom's feel our brains are going to mush sometimes...I feel quite unintelligent myself:)
Ok I posted mine but I did it on my secret blog... http://samuraimom.blogspot.com/
Hey Robin.
I loved reading about you. And I think that it is a testament to our friendship that I already knew all your secret things!
And I also know how intelligent your are. You just need a little more confidence to know for yourself!
For all the snarky comments I leave on your blog, it is only because I know YOU ARE AMAZING, and fun, and loveable, and ... well, I could just go on and on!
You are fabulous- I re-tagged Dory because she didn't do it. Unless it's a different Dory that you tagged. Love ya- call me back!
Finally got here to your tagging post. Brought back a lot of memories! Like Denise, I felt pretty cool that I already knew your secrets. :) Don't know how much I'd be willing to reveal on our blog considering that it's pretty much open to the world, but I'll try to respond.
As for your intelligence, you've been saying this for as long as I've known you, but something I absolutely treasure about you (and I'm sure Dan does too) is your ability to cut through the crap to get to the heart of the matter. You're fearless in the face of truth and that takes a rare gift of intelligence.
How did you get these great designs for your blog? Please fill me in, mine is so boring. By the way, I am on my way to doing the tagged thing so you can check it, it should be done soon.
Dory, Check out my post "Beautiful Blogs", there are some tips there. Actually Denise designed mine. Isn't it beautiful!
You guys are great for my self esteem!
