Tagged ~ Five Years

Last week Simone over at
The Bottom of the Ironing Basket
tagged me for a
"Five years" list.

It has taken some thinking
and digging through my memory
but here I go...

Where were you 5 years ago?

Wow ~ looking back not a whole lot has changed in my life.

I am still working the same job, living in the same house.
We would have celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary,
had one furry child Sasha whom we lost the spring of 2006.

We went to Ontario for vacation and made a few stops
along the way.
We spent a night in Quebec City ~ then off to Ottawa
home base was Brampton and then we
took a side trip to Niagara Falls and
Niagara on the Lake.

I was about 40lbs heavier, so I guess that is different.

It was a fantastic vacation
as we did a lot together
and I got to see some things I have seen many time
through Trevor's eyes as it was his first time
to place like the falls
and Canada's Wonderland.


Where would you like to be 5 years from now?

I would like to be happy and healthy
which includes being at a healthy weight

Still married to the same man

Braver

Believe in myself more

and be content with where I am ~


life is too short for regrets....

What's on your to-do list today?

Work ~ then after work comes the fun stuff:
mail the parcel I have been trying to get done since the week-end
go for a walk
put away laundry
& relax til bedtime

What 5 snacks do you enjoy?
~ Milk chocolate in almost any form
I am not fussy when it comes to chocolate!
~ Fresh bread with a good dip
~ Buttered popcorn mini rice cakes
~ Ice cream
~ Cheese - I love it and all it's fatty goodness

What would you do if you were a Billionaire?
Where do I start with this one ~ really?

~ Build my dream house here

~ Build another dream house somewhere warm

~ Make sure my family ~ including extended family are comfortable
~ Travel!

~ Give to charity and our church

and most of all ~ this is something I have been dreaming of....
it's a lottery dream really


Fly in all the girls from my internet group

we will stay at The Plaza Hotel


in New York City

drink wine, eat fabulous food and
catch up!

This is a dream that I hope someday will come true...

So now I tag the following
as I would love to see their answers

Maggie
Lisa
Becky
Yvonne
& LouBoo

Happy Tuesday!!

Faith ~ Hope ~ Love


As I was reading tonight
and catching up on some of my favorites
woman that inspire me
to be a better person

I find there is a lot of faith

and hope

and always love

that tomorrow will be brighter



that our problems will be lifted by a greater being

that our troubles will be few


that maybe today will be
THAT day

your family and friends
and the people that surround you



Is the greatest of all
