What I was doing 10 years ago:
Putting on my BigGirlPants by moving to an apartment off campus up at UNC. Pursuing a degree in Psychology. I discovered the chat rooms on the internet in 1995. It's all been downhill from there! Just kiddin'...actually, that's how I met my husband (in 1996 I think) so I can't complain!

5 years ago:
Living in a garden level apartment in Fort Collins with my then-fiance Honey. We had tons of stuff in a very small, very hot space. I was working at a credit reporting agency nearby and struggling to make friends in the area. Consdiering going back to school to pursue goals in Early Childhood Education.

1 year ago:
Settling into our new house in Highlands Ranch. Feeling glad to be back in the old 'hood where I grew up. Seeing parents more regularly. Changing schools. Getting acquainted with our new kitten Merlyn.
