Another Meme - This is Fun!

I stole this meme from The Knitlette:

Ten years ago: I had almost completed the classwork for my doctorate in education and was caretaker to my mom before she died. Was also mom to a troubled teenaged DD (who turned out okay!)

Five years ago: I was recovering from a heart attack and double by-pass surgery

One year ago: I was in the process of discovering what autoimmune disease I had and receiving treatment for it. I was starting my own business Nana Sadie Rose and enjoying being a nana to two. I also restarted my love affair with knitting!

Five snacks:
Dark Chocolate w/raspberry
Cheese Straws (rarely, but I love them)
Dried Pineapple
Popcorn (Smart Pop)
Yoplait Blackberry yogurt (fat-free)

Five songs I know all the words to:
Anything from Oklahoma!, South Pacific,
Music Man, West Side Story,
Hello Dolly (all those musicals from the 50s-60s)
Most songs from Cats
Most John Denver songs

Five things I would do with $100 million:
-Pay off bills (doesn’t everyone say this?)
-Fund college accounts for my two grandsons
-Buy all the “drool-factor” yarn, a swift, a ball winder, another Bernina, floor loom, quilting frame – all the toys & supplies for my crafts that I don’t have...
-Buy a large farmhouse in New England for my man & me to retire to (w/ room for a large, sunny studio for: sewing, knitting, weaving) and finally getting my German Shepherd Dog.
-Fund my own foundation for MY pet charities

Five places to run away to:
Vermont, Vermont, Vermont, Vermont!
Paris
Boston
Nova Scotia
Maine seacoast in fall

Five things I would never wear:
minis
bikini
sexy lingerie outside the bedroom (sorry ladies, that’s just déclassé for anyone)
any body piercing other than the single holes I have in each earlobe
any tattoo (These last two are just things my Mom taught me not to do, and I just can't see it for me...it's okay for YOU!)
(okay - you get a bonus - a sixth thing I'll never wear is platform shoes!)

Five favorite tv shows:
Criminal Minds (I think the character Gideon is sexy - his MIND, not just the outside package!)
NCIS (I love Abby - so go figure on the body piercing/tattoos from above?)
E-Ring
Design on a Dime
Decorating Cents

Five biggest joys:
My man
My grandsons
My cats
KNITTING
Sewing

Favorite toys:
Bernina Quilter’s Edition sewing machine
Skacel Addi Naturas (LOVE my circular knitting needles – especially bamboo - can't wait to try the Denise needles)
Computer/printer/scanner/digital camera
Cell phone
Cuisinart Food Processor
