Part of a lifetime

This is from a post RA did a while back. Had to go searching through your archives to find it! I was gonna post it back then, but something else distracted me, not sure what. Anyway...on with the show:
  • 10 years ago...
    • Let's see...I graduated that May. I was working 'full' time at Gerbes, and trying to keep my mother from stealing my hard earned money and taking my car out for joy rides. She had no money, and it was all I could do to pay the over $400/month car payments, gas and insurance on my car. All my extra money from that went to feed the children in the house (hers), since she was too lazy to bother with it. 18 years old and supporting 2 kids, my mother while being exhausted working every day I could. I really should have known better.
  • 5 years ago...
    • Let's see...Since it's August now, I was pregnant with Mikel. By that time I knew it and wasn't working. The boss at the Cantina didn't want me working when I was pregnant, I guess. I was helping prep food and let me tell ya, the smell of the beans cooking made me throw up a few times.
  • 1 year ago...
    • Let's see...Last year, I was still getting along with my father. Trying to keep the peace between my sisters and him. Well, trying to get him to stop his crap with them anyway. I was still under the impression that I could influence that. Didn't do much good though. *sigh*
  • Yesterday...
    • I was resting my hands as they hurt like a bitch. Read 2 books. Surfed my favorite blogs via my little Sage and RSS feeds. Also tried a few blog templates for Dalyna's new blog. I didn't like them. I did put haloscan on it though. Can't give out the site unless she gives permission you know, it's not polite. That and she's littlest sister and maybe she doesn't want ya'll to know. :P
  • Today...
    • Re-read a book, checked e-mail and am trying to figure out how to fix Dalyna's site. I hate tables! There is so much CSS coding on her template it ain't funny. The tables have to go! Anyone has good dolphin pics, leave the site in haloscan for me. I'll take it from there. And you girl...set up the photobucket NOW! Things'll run smoother that way.
  • Tomorrow...
    • Same damn thing. My life's pretty boring.
  • 5 snacks I enjoy...
    • Can you say chocolate? Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, chocolate and well, ok if you insist, chocolate with peanut butter!
  • 5 songs I know all the words to...
    • Duh! Name your Bon Jovi song, and I can sing it! Not that I can carry a tune in a bucket but well... I think I'll just list my 5 favorites. 'I'll be there for you', 'Bang a Drum', 'Blaze of Glory', 'Blood Money', 'Keep the faith'. I can go on and on.
  • 5 things I would do with $100,000,000...
    • Well then, that's a lot of money. I'd probably sink it into the 'engine'. Don't ask, I'm not telling. He gets that thing right and we'll be having much more than a million dollars. Wise investment I'd say.
  • 5 locations I would love to run away to...
    • Well...none really. I'm more of a homebody.
  • 5 bad habits I have...
    • Should I really tell on myself? I procrastinate, a lot. I tell others what to do, all the time. I am NEVER wrong, no matter how wrong I am. That's enough I think.
  • 5 things I like doing...
    • Reading, reading, you get the idea. I also like to create things. I like my art. I like to create stuff for my site, and for my siblings I'll create stuff for theirs too. Everyone else has to ask se7en. Not everything is free! {hee hee, another plug for BGW, didn't think I would, didja?!}
  • 5 things I would never wear...
    • Ha ha ha! Dresses, high heels, perfume, you get the idea yet?! I am not ladylike and will strike damn near anyone who would suggest it! *grin*
  • 5 t.v. shows I like...
    • Since it says tv shows...(ya'll know what's comin' dontcha?!) Inuyasha, Samurai Champloo, The Avatar, Shaman King, The Closer. I told ya, didn't I? The last one is an actual show, not a cartoon. Monday nights, TNT, 8pm Central time, if ya wanna check it out!
  • 5 movies I like...
    • Well, I don't really do movies. Any disney movie, I like it! Brother Bear is the most recent one I've seen. It made me cry, SHUT UP! It was great! I watched Constantine most recently too. Not only did it have Keanu Reeves, who makes me melt every time, it had a great storyline too!
  • 5 famous people I'd like to meet...
    • No one! I don't do well with strangers, and there's really no one I'd wanna meet anyway. Don't wanna be disillusioned, you know!
  • 5 biggest joys of the moment...
    • My kids, my books, my Bon Jovi music, my internet, and well, that's it for now.
  • 5 favorite toys...
    • I don't really do toys. I have some stuffed animals I like to look at though.
  • 5 people to tag...
    • Now that would be cruel and unusual punishment. That's not legal, ya know! If ya want it, take it. I did it in a <ul> to make it easier to read.
Ya'll have fun now. See ya later!
