Another Self-Imposed Meme - Getting To Know Me
By Dana Prince on Jul 13, 2008 in WAHM Chaos, WAHM Procrastination
What’s with me these days? Am I so bereft of imagination that I can’t come up with a new post idea? Could it be that I’ve finally surpassed a realistic number of blogs to manage while managing a busy work at home writing career and a family? Naaaaaahh…..
So, I found this meme last night and decided to participate in lieu of leaving this blog without posts for another few days. I haven’t figured out what to populate my other dozen or so blogs with and a few are sadly neglected but here’s one blog off the list. Feel free to tag yourself if you like.
Cheers,
What were you doing ten years ago?
I was 26 and just transitioning from a career of purchasing agent to sales specialist with the Big Meatball (my former employer). I had a 2 year old son (who now has ARMPIT HAIR!) and my husband was probably doing something entrepreneurial. He was like that back then.
What are five things on your to-do list for today (not in any particular order)?
1. An ugly set of articles I need to finish (check)
2. Cleaning the house (check mostly but not out of normal necessity. There was a parasitic crisis.)
3. Calling my sister (yes but cut her short due to a household crisis I’d rather not talk about due to the fact it involved parasitic insects and a lot of cleaning. ‘Nuff said.)
4. Spending time with my boys who were just away for 2 weeks (check but not the quality time I’d hoped for)
5. Exercise (ummm….does running round like a crazed lunatic all day dealing with my crisis count? I’m sure I burnt a few calories.)
What are some snacks you enjoy?
Chips. They’re a big weakness. I also love popcorn and anything that comes with dip.
What would you do if you were a billionaire?
Become a generous philanthropist and still be a writer although I’d be much choosier about what I chose to write!

Poor ergonomics
