OK lets see
1. I check e-mail everyday 2. I would like to learn to enjoy housework, and to sew. 3. Things that remind me of my childhood are, Sesame Street, taco salad (a rare treat my mom only made when in a good mood), a certain song my mom played on the piano when she was mad. 4. Things I love, but don't get to do often, Read a book for fun, nap, go to lunch with a girlfriend, get a massage. 5. Places I would love to travel, lets see, Isreal, Africa, Disney one more time with my younger kids, Australia, any tropical fun place.
