5 things tag!

Well I'm a loser as usual and just noticed I was tagged almost a week ago! Did I tell you I'm goin nuts with this construction project? Probably at least a hundred times. It's gonna be a theme for a while that's all I can say!

5 things I was doing 5 years ago:
1. Had just sold our house we LOVED to prepare ourselves to move to Logan and save some scarce cash.
2. Moved next door to my in-laws in their rental home.
3. Installing new Pergo, tile, and painting said rental home (while pregnant with Cole.)
4. Trying to imagine it might just be possible we would eventually move to Logan as we had been promised by Chris' company for the last 2 years.
5. Dealing with back problems and had to call 911 and be removed from the house on a backboard in my G's by firefighters. I tweaked my back and couldn't move a muscle without excruciating pain. It happened after a shower, and I was stuck face down naked on the floor for an hour trying to figure out what to do as my 2 year old screamed. It took all I had and lots of tears just to get my G's on. My most embarrassing moment EVER!

5 things on my to-do list for TODAY
1. Take the kids to school
2. Hang half our doors and paint the other half
3. Get Cate out of her P.J.'s before I had to pick Cai up at 3:00 (yeah I'm a deadbeat mom lately, she had fruit snacks for lunch too just to rack up a few more points)
4. Go to Young Women's
5. Pick up some M&M's for Cai's 100 days of school trail mix tomorrow.

5 things I would do with a million dollars
1. Pay off our debt
2. Buy a new 4 wheel drive hybrid SUV
3. Buy Chris the Rat Rod truck of his dreams.
