Tag - I'm It

I have been tagged by both the lovely Alyson from May Day Writer and the fabulous Anne over at Piedmont Writer. I'm thrilled ot have met them both through this online writer's blogolovosphere :) Now, I'm a total slacker, so it's been a while and they've probably forgotten. Well, here it is in any case...

Where were you five years ago?

1.) We'd just moved to NC and I was enamored by it. Still am.
2.) Loving being able to spend the days at the zoo, park, museum, with my 6 wonderful friends - all with twins, and one set of triplets+1. Yeah, we got asked a lot if we were a pre-school.
3.) We'd pretty much gotten rid of all household things when leaving FL, so even a year in, I was still trying to decorate!
4.) At any given time, hiking in the beautiful montains of NC.
5.) Pulling my hair out with two 3 year olds ;)

Where do you want to be 5 years from now?

1.) Right here, baby.
2.) Published
3.) Probably wishing I were back to pulling my hair out over two 3 year olds, as opposed to, you know, two almost teenagers!
4.) In my garden, planting the summer veggies.

5.) Driving around in my Viper

      What is on today's To-Do list

1.) Check my fave blogs
2.) Critique for my group
3.) Wii Fit
4.) Help out in Baby B's class with a project
5.) Get chapters 10-12 ready to uploaded to my crit group for skewering ;)
 (Cleaning really should be on that list, but my kids are trying to save up moolah for Disney spending this summer. I'll let them do that dirty work over the weekend...muwahahahaha!)

What are your favorite snacks? (Hm. not a huge snack person. My in between meal stuff, I guess...)

1.) yogurt with granola
2.) grapes
3.) dried fruit of any kind!
4.) pretzels
5.) cheese

(Okay, that all looks so damn healthy written out - why do I need to lose weight?! Oh right, the curse of the Hoishik hips, grr.)

What would you do if you were a billionaire?

1.) Something I haven't yet shared here: my daughter has Cystic Fibrosis, so an awful lot would go to finding a cure.
2.) Donate lots more to the Make Yourself Foundation. An incredible charity that donates around communties to all sorts of needs.
3.) Buy my Viper
4.) Live here:

and here

(photos removed)

  5.) Hire someone to do all my technical computer stuff (like figure out how to make the words where I want them) so I didn't want to toss the damn thing out the window every day. (Why can't I make this stupid blog do what I want it to do!?)

I would like to hear from the boys around the blog world. Er, men. Sorry. As hubby would say (to the boy reference): Feel again. (I know guys are less apt to participate in these things, and if you don't want to, I will be in no way offended. I get it.)

Editing to add Alex J. Cavanaugh I don't know how I missed Alex (thought you got away, didn't ya? Though, I think you've been tagged for this already...)- he's awesome! Check him out :)

And, if I have forgotten any of my fellow manly bloggers, please jump aboard - I'd love to learn more about you :)

So, now I've pretty much eaten up all my blog time doing this post (which is why I usually do it the night before, ugh. I'm way to lazy to proof and edit all this so ignore my typos. I am off to work out, shower and head to school...
