My life...in a konk shell.

OK.....So, EM tagged me too...WEll here goes nothin...Be prepared to laugh a little cause I had fun making it at midnight watching the sun go down.

5 things I was doing 10 years ago....
1 I was in Quillota, Chile. Loving the Chilean people.
2 Eating bread with mayonase on it. And avacado...Love it! Little bit of salt and lemon juice in it.
3 Walking about 5-6 miles per day. Man I wish I had time to do that again.
4 Picking "pulgas" fleas off of my legs and arms. Then splattering them with a ball point pen.
5 Lastly, these are in no order of priority...Listening to President Hinkley speak to the people of Chile. That was a memorable experience.

What people might not know about me...Wanna know more????
Well by now you probably know a little more than you want to. But wait......THE SHOW MUST GO ON! I am excited to be back in Scouting again. I am assistant scoutmaster in our ward and assistant to the deacons quorum advisor. I did get my eagle award by the way. I have lost most of it, but play piano. I can still read music though. Wanted to become a Broadway singer before an airline pilot. But between those I wanted to become a computer programmer. OK, i ran out of breath. If you are bored you should have stopped reading along time ago...:)
