I have company still. Very enjoyable company. When I am no longer being lazy I will post a picture... or three of them. Right now, while I am waiting for their little to "make like an alarm clock" and wake them, it is just coffee and peeking at other people's blog and in this case, stealing something from someone. Below is what I have stolen this a.m. with my answers instead of the other blogger's answers.
1) What was I doing 10 years ago?
10 years ago I was living in Iowa with my husband. He had accepted a job there(he was a consultant for them at the time) that he could not turn down. He tried to keep from accepting it and they made such a nice offer that he finally accepted. He knew that the company would not thrive in the place where they were and he planned on moving the company to a more profitable place, which was Scottsdale, AZ where the market was much better for what the company was offering. So, we kept our home in Scottsdale, rented it out (to our son and his wife) and I was able to join him for a year and a half. Company was moved and we came back home.
2) What are 5 things on my to-do list for today (not in any particular order):
No plan, Nada, Nothing planned. Enjoy my company and feed them when they are hungry.
3) Snacks I enjoy:
Food. I enjoy almost all food. Try NOT to eat the snacks I most enjoy. Try to eat only things that won't distroy me. Fail. Favorite? Coldstone Creamery Coffee ice cream with toasted almonds. So happy that they are a very, very long way from me!
4) Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
Get this family of mine together much more often than just one time a year.
5) Places I have lived: Keep in mind, I married an IBM executive.
Thayer, Missouri (starting place)
A place in Oklahoma that I can't remember the name of at the moment
San Jose, California. 28 years
Danbury, Connecticut (twice)
Boulder, Colorado
Davenport, Iowa
Tucson, Arizona
Scottsdale, Arizona
Marana, Arizona
Next stop, HEAVEN
6) Jobs I have had:
Mowing lawns
Baby sitting
Housekeeping and cooking for an elderly couple while I was in Bible College
Telephone compnay: long distance, information, and teletype
Front office of a dentist office
Hot dog stand (while saving the position for my son until summer vacation)
Diet Center
All very short term jobs. Most of my life, I have held the job of mom &
home maker and been so grateful that I was blessed with that privilege
7) Peeps I wanna know more about
Occasionally a notable person comes to mind and I think I should type the
name into google and then I forget.
OK. That is it for today. Perhaps more tomorrow.

Hi Connie,
I know you're enjoying your company. We are expecting relatives from California sometime next month. I'm looking forward to that.
It was interesting to read the 7 things about you. Many of them I knew but I didn't know you lived in Oklahoma. Was the experience so bad that you blocked the name out of your mind. Ha.
Aloha. I'm trying to keep that Hawaiian feeling.
Good morning, Connie.
Glad your able to take the time to relax with your family. By the way, rumor has it that a Coldstone Creamery is coming to Marana! Just kidding!
Thanks for the Do Not Call info. We were on the list, but I think I have to update it, however it still doesn't stop the political and/or survey calls, for us anyway.
I'll go back and post that number and web site so in case others don't know about it.
Have an enjoyable day.
Brenda :)
Charlotte: I just remembered. I lived in Punca City. It was before I even started school. A long time ago, hence, I must be forgiven for not remembering.
Brenda: There is already a C.C. in Marana but it is about 20 miles or more away from me. Good thing.
