Here I Come, Ready or Not

Janet and Msteri have tagged me as "It", so here I come ready or not. I'm most definitely NOT ready. I've only been a blogger for 3 weeks and am really a "Newbie", but I'm ready to have some fun with my network of genea-bloggers.

10 Years Ago I:

• was only 50 years old
• went to my stepfather's funeral
• helped my husband recover from shoulder surgery
• went to my son's wedding
• helped my husband move my Dad to Colorado from our hometown in Kansas
• (an extra point) hadn't even started on my family history research

5 Things on today's to do list:

• Drag myself to work and write a newsletter
• Fix lunch and dinner for my Dad, who's recovering, at age 87, from a badly broken leg and lives alone
• Mail a birthday card to my sister-in-law
• Post a new story on my blog to wish my uncle Happy Birthday and write about the twins in my family
• Copy and mail genealogy info to someone from a Parish Register of the late 1800s.

5 Snacks I enjoy

• Chocolate Chip Cookies
• Cheddar Cheese by the chunk
• Hershey bars
• Ice Cream with lots of Hershey Syrup & walnuts
• Did I say Chocolate Chip Cookies?
