A LITTLE PEAK INTO MY LIFE

I was tagged back in August by my dear friend Kim to post this list, so here goes.......

5 Things I was Doing 10 Years Ago-

1. To the date, I had just over one week before I was to enter the MTC and embark on that great adventure. Hopefully I was appreciating the luxurious comforts of America since I would have to live without them for the next 18 months.
2. Just prior to leaving on my mission, I had been working at a doctor's office in Sandy by Alta View Hospital (Dr. Dietz, Hawkins, Breding & Liu).
3. I was enjoying my last couple of days as a "not quite legal" 20 year-old.
4. I was driving a white, Chevy Cavalier Z24 (A sporty little 2-door thing with some serious get-up-and-go).
5. I had a pretty serious crush on Matt McIff from high school as well as our old neighbor from Sandy, Zachary Terry.
