10 years ago:
I was living in Raleigh, NC (where I had lived my entire life!), dating Ryan long distance, taking a real estate class to switch professions from being a teacher to get into commercial real estate, and deciding in the next month or so to scrap all of those plans and move to Zeeland, Michigan so Ryan and I could be together. Who would have thunk??????
Things on my to do list today:
1. get a shower
2. go to Sunday School and church
3. go for a walk
4. go to health class with Lynette at Community
5. go to Cobe's soccer game tonight
Too busy for a Sunday!!!!
Three bad habits:
Being obsessive about checking blogs (hence noticing on a Sunday morning that Lynette tagged me)
Needing to be in control of EVERYTHING
Agreeing to do things then regretting that I did (teach at church, volunteer at Cobe's school, etc.)
If I suddenly become a billionare:
Buy a new house, get a new van, fly to see my parents more often instead of driving, go on a long vacation, and quit my job. (Nice that I am doing the first 2 without having to get a billion dollars)
Five Jobs I've had : (I've had 6)
lifeguard and swim coach at Northbrook Country Club
lifeguard at Raleigh Raquet Club
swim coach for New Wave swim team
9th grade teacher at Millbrook High School
7th grade teacher and Dean of Students at Creekside Middle School
7th grade teacher at Cityside Middle School
(And I honestly think those are the only jobs I have had in my life!)
** EDITED- Due to an email I received from my dad, I need to add a job. He reminded me that I was a gift-wrapper at a department store around Christmas time- the store was called Ivy's. I think I did it for 2 Christmases in high school. So I have actually had 7 jobs. :-)
Five things people don't know about me:
1. I also have irrational fears (like Lynette) but they change over time. Now I worry that my kids will be abducted or there will be a school shooting at my school. But is that so irrational to worry about those things?????
2. I have a strict weekly/nightly face cleaning regiment. On Thursday and Sunday morning, I use microdermabrasion, but never on another day. I would never go to bed without washing my face. I take about 20 minutes in the bathroom each night getting ready for bed and most of it is washing my face/brushing my teeth. Ryan wonders how it takes 1 person so long to get ready for sleep.
3. I am slowly changing how I eat to a much healthier way- it is yummy and I feel better about myself. Does that mean I am done eating junk? No, but I will eat much healthier most of the time.
4. I have a student teacher right now at work and she is doing such an amazing job, that I really don't have a single thing to do when I get there. This will go on until the end of April. Aaahhhh!
5. I am going to a spa for 2 nights and 2 days in June with a group of girlfriends from work.
(I realized doing this I don't keep much to myself- some people know each of the above things)
Now I tag Amanda and Wendie.

I knew most of the things on the 5 things people don't know section, but I have to say that I learned quite a bit from the above, didn't know you were such a swimmer or that you took commercial real estate classes...
Very interesting. For some reason I knew about the swimming. Must have been something you mentioned at one point. Or am I psychic? Seems like we were sitting in your driveway once and you talked about the swimming. Or am I totally making this up? Interesting about the real estate thing!
I learned quite a bit about you reading this....
You lived in Raleigh.
You have a dad.
How fun!! I knew a liitle bit about you, but not much!! Loved the 10 years ago thing!!!!
Uh oh - now I am going to have to start thinking! Let's see what I can come up with.
The face washing thing is pretty impressive! Well, your whole life seems to be, but I that was the most surprising.
