Groove Tagged Me!

I was tagged again! Here it goes!

What were you doing 5yrs ago?
- I was a junior in high school (yes i am that young) about forty pounds heavier. I was a dork back then, plain jane. Jeans with polo shirts. Long hair parted in the middle. Cruizing around with my best friend RKF and learning about growing up and who we were. Starting to grow, change, evolve, and think I knew who I was. Looking back, I've realized that I've changed; that's part of life, we're always changing.

I was sweet sixteen, one of the most difficult years of my life because I got sick from my liver, a test of my faith in God. I spent the whole entire season of Fall in and out of the doctor's office. I got used to blood tests and needles bruising my arms. I remember I was also diagnosed with arthritis in my knees. A rare form of juvenile arthritis that weakened my knees. I had to stop riding my bike down the road because of the burning sensation in my legs. I took Celebrex which only impacted my stomach and made me sicker. I remember the doctor said I needed to lose weight and I didn't listen. The stubborn girl I was! Five years ago was a difficult time for me, but like the strong Christian I am, I left my problems up to God.

Yesterday?
I was working and blogging, reading, posting to yahoo groups. Had a nice lunch with my mom, yummy salad @ Golden Corral and some ice cream topped with Oreos. I spent the afternoon setting up new insurance policies, helping my boss out, and car-shopping. I want a car; I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I spent the evening with my mom, doing what we do best together. SHOPPING. We went to JcPenney and spent a couple of hours there; I got some awesome deals. I still fit in size 16 :D. They are so comfortable. It's funny but it was almost like I got "school clothes" since I start my senior year in college next Monday. I got some dark blue capris, a red skirt with a ruffle at the bottom, some red shorts, and black pinstripe capri pants.
We ate @ Taco Bell, had a crunchy gordita. Rasberry iced tea. Went home and visited with my two sisters. Nice day. Talked on the phone till midnight with one of my good friends. I love conversation....
