Five things

My sister Anne tagged me. So here goes with my 5 things.

What was I doing ten years ago?

1. Enjoying my four year old and a six year old boys
2. Moving interstate
3. Recovering from a whiplash injury.
4. Homeschooling my eldest son.
5. Surviving the hotest summer in SA for about the past 30 years - Our rental house was west-facing with no insulation or aircon. - Weeks and weeks of 40 degree days - the boys never wore clothes they just jumped in and out of the bath all day, playing nude in-between.

Five things currently on my to-do list
1. Not spend any money so we can afford to go away for Davids long service leave next year!
2. Finish the 3 quilts I have started, including one for my neices birthday in May. (this goal doesnt really go with goal one!!)
3. Finish the gyprocking of the study.
4. Finish paving the front path
5. Start my "run it off" challenge (yeah right like that's going to happen)

Five things I would do if I was a billionaire
1. Buy a stack of investment properties so I could continue to generate wealth - so I could do the following:
2. Give up work and travel the world teaching permaculture
3. Give to grassroots work through out the world.
4. Hire a maid!!
5. Build a little strawbale house on a few acres so we could grow our own organic food and get back to basics. (In-between teaching appointments)
