Thanks to Carolina John for tagging me! I actually finally did an update today and then I got tagged too. I know I got tagged last year and did a post about it but I will be darned...I can't find it anywhere. Maybe it was my imagination!?
Rules: Each player answers the question themselves. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people and posts their names, then goes to their blog and leaves them a comment letting them know that they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve answered the questions on your blog.
10 Years Ago (1998): I admit I had just graduated from college, yes, a bit later than I should have. I landed a great job at Lockwood Greene Engineers in Project Controls. I lived in the middle of a 3000 acre farm with tons of trails and I only had 1 dog. I drove a beat up old BMW which I would still be driving today if my father had not sold it for me during one of my trips for work. I was still riding the same road bike I got when I was 11. I think I did the Boston Marathon this year and the Assault on Mt. Mitchell. So I was fit. I still swam like a rock back then.
5 Things on Today’s “To Do” List:
1. Make a distribution list for Ache Around the Lake - only about 400 names - DONE!
2. Drink lots of water to help me get over this cold/flu
3. Update my Malone Coaching website - not done, problems with the server. I love technology!
4. Nap - to get over the cold/flu
5. Reschedule all the things that I could not do this week due to cold/flu. I LOVE being sick!
5 Things that I would do if I were a millionaire:
1. Rescue all the unwanted animals and give them loving families - that would probably be all I could afford.
2. Not necessarily in 2nd - would be to rescue all unwanted children. Maybe the kids and the pets could all live together on a big commune.
3. Live strictly off the land like in the old days - since I would have enough money to pay for the farm I would have time to do all the work. I know this is crazy but I do spend time thinking about it...then all the kids and pets could live/work there too..now I am going somewhere with this!
4. Travel around the world and do random acts of kindness, like build schools, provide medical relief - yeah, I know I would be out of money very quickly
5. Invest wisely so that the money would grow and be able to take care of more people.
5 Places I have lived:
1. Tryon, NC
2. Bielefeld, Germany
3. Groningen, The Netherlands
4. Phoenix, AZ
5. Campobello, SC
5 Jobs I have had:
1. Waffle House waitress
2. Worked for my father in his machine shop
3. Groom (this is where you clean the horse, stall and tack for someone else for .25 and hour...AKA Slave). I did it for the love of the horses NOT the people!
4. Pro Triathlete - unfortunately I was not fast enough to make any money
5. Gold's Gym - Sales (worst job ever - best commission)
Now I’m tagging:

I love it! I didn't know you lived in europe for a while? that's crazy. I think it's so interesting to see little facts like these about people.
One other thing. Have you ever read "The Good Life" by Scott Nearing? It's the definitive bible on organic homesteading He and his wife only ate food that they grew themselves, lived off of the land, and he lived to be 99 years old. It's really an amazing story. Pick up a copy sometime if that's been on your mind lately.
You have way too many teeth to be a Waffle House waitress!!!!!
I want to know how you're supposed to tend a farm with all the animals and kids running around like banshees? You MUST be Wonderwoman...I KNEW IT!!! Take care, Mike
