Fall is Fabulous

Fall has rapidly become my favorite season due to the fact that the weather gets cooler. This is the key to it all. This is true especially in New Jersey. There is much I love about the East coast, but I detest humidity. This week it has finally cooled off and with cooler weather comes the promise of the dazzling fall foliage. Last year at this time, we were still sweltering. I am grateful that this is not the case this year, as I feel that there should be cool weather in time for my birthday.

A bit about our current state of affairs: Jon is in his final semester of school at Rowan, for which we are both grateful. I am working for a temp agency and I'm currently on assignment at a company that sells high end men's clothing via the internet. Life is good and I can't complain.

As I visited the blogs of 2 or 3 other bloggers related to me, I noticed the 'TAG' information in each and that I was listed as someone who should take the up gauntlet and provide information regarding myself. So, because I have been tagged, although I'm too late to tag anyone who has a blog because they've already done it, here are my responses to the questions posed:

10 years ago I:

1. Was recovering from going to school for 14 months straight and finishing my Associates degree in that time.
2. Working for Marriot Vacation Club International
3. Contemplating going back to school or serving a mission and trying to save money for either.
4. Spending a lot of time hanging out with Stephanie while living at home in Fruit Heights.
5. Visiting Emily in Logan at Utah State.

5 things on today's "to do" list including things already done because it's 7:00 in the evening:

1. Watch Conference!!! Yay!!!
2. Go to Mel's house to hang out while the men go to Priesthood meeting
3. Run Errands
4. Go to the library
5. Clean my room

5 snacks I enjoy (I reserve the right to modify the word snacks to include breakfast, lunch, and dinner):
1. Corn Dogs (Yay, corn dogs! Yay!)
2. Soup of most kinds-especially cream soups!
3. Breakfast foods involving potatoes, bacon, and eggs-preferably combined
4. Philly Cheese Steaks
5. Pan fried noodles from the Ho Ho Gourmet

5 things I would do if I were a millionaire:

1. Pay off all of our debts
2. Pay off the debts of all of our family members
3. Buy a house
4. Buy a new car
5. Invest the rest and buy tons of food storage

The above questions and the fact that I will be turning 30 in exactly 1 week have lead me to ponder my life thus far--what an adventure it has been so far. I hope for many more....
