5ive Things

Karen from  Nerdycomputergirl in the New Decade has tagged me for 5ive Things.
I don't think I've done this one before, I hope I haven't!
Thanks Karen!!

I have to answer 5 questions and tag 5 fab bloggers.
I'm answering the questions but once again I'm going to cheat with the tagging...


1. Where were you 5 years ago?

Probably sitting on the couch breastfeeding my 9 month old baby boy, and gazing upon his sweet little face with total adoration.




2. Where would you like to be 5 years from now?

Like Karen I'd love to be living in a bigger house but I have no idea where it would be.
Both kids will be at school so I'd love to be doing 3 days relief teaching and spend the rest of my time dressmaking.


3. What are 5 things on your to do list today?

grocery shopping

tidy my 5 year old's bedroom (so I can see the floor)

ironing

knitting

read some more of Kylie Ladd's 'After the Fall' (which I am loving!)


4. What are 5 snacks you enjoy?

Cheese













Carrot sticks and dips













Chips













Cashews













KFC popcorn chicken with mashed potato & gravy (totally disgusting, I know!)















5. What are 5 things you would do if you were a billionaire?

Buy a mansion (and I'm talking M.A.N.S.I.O.N. with a water view)
Travel the world
Gift some money to every family member
Donate donate donate
Become a volunteer worker



So there are my answers...now for the cheating part...

If you read this and thought it sounds like fun...

I tag YOU!

99 Presents

Mother's Day is just around the corner.
I got my present a little early and I'm a very lucky mummy 'cause it's a LAPTOP!!
Yeah, it was supposed to be my reward for getting under 60kgs.
I didn't get there but my husband was tired of hearing me whinge about it thought I deserved it anyway.
YAY!
And my mum called today to say her present arrived in the mail.  She loved it.  It was one of these bags, practical and helping a good cause...win/win!
My mother-in-law is getting one, too, on Sunday.  I hope she likes it just as much.

So presents are all taken care of this year, but I like wish lists.  And I had this idea today.
Remember the 99 Things post from a little while back?
Well, I thought this might be fun...
Here's a list of 99 gift options for Mother's Day, or any day really.
If you want to play along, copy the list, and bold the ones you want (yes, you are allowed to bold everything, if you want).  Then show it to someone who cares...you never know...you might just get something you actually want for once.   GO!!
