Flashback Meme…yeah
It started as a sore throat a couple of days ago with a bit of a cold, and yesterday the fever hit. Then the diarrhea, of course, because life would be too easy without that. And then, the vomiting began. I was up all night throwing up.
Somewhere during the night, I had the strange and rare pleasure of blowing vomit out my nose.
Gentle Readers, I am sick.
I can barely talk which, frankly, is good news for my children because they’re driving me crazy but I can’t scream at them!
Also, I don’t have my scanner set up here yet, nor do I really have any idea where my pictures are, so rather than Flashback Friday, I’m going to go with a meme that Paige tagged me for. It’s kinda flash-backy, and requires much less effort and thought from me in my thoughtlessness today.
What were you doing 10 years ago?
Ten years ago I was not quite 19 years old. Oddly enough, I was living in the city that I’ve now just moved to. I was finishing up my freshman year of college, going to summer school and taking my first Spanish class. I had just been thrown out of the Foreign Language Housing and very soon I would be thrown out of BYU all together. Ahhhh, the sweet memories. Hahaha. Oh, and I was making out with everyone. Okay, not everyone. I had two criteria–they had to be male and they had to be hot. Still, there were PLENTY to choose from. Hahahaha.
What were you doing 1 year ago?
One year ago I was 6 months pregnant with Lil’ Dude. I was traipsing all over the place with my little kiddos and my big fat pregnantness.
