I GUESS my blog could also include personal history stuff..

This week I ran into a cool blog about recording your personal history. It's called the "This Is Me Challenge" http://thisismechallenge.blogspot.com/ I am absolutely horrible about writing in a journal. I usually start one, do 2 entries and then buy a new journal with a new goal to write in it about 1 or 2 times per year...so I am going to try and do this weekly challenge in an attempt to use my blog more and to write down some fun things about me...because let's face it, who doesn't want to talk about me?!?

Challenge 1:
If you were forced to go back in time to the olden days, but were allowed to take 10 modern conveniences with you, what would you take?(For me, not in any specific order)


This list is just off the top of my head, I am sure it could change at the drop of a hat.
1-my camera. I LOVE my pictures..someday they will be out of their boxes and into beautiful and completed scrapbook albums
2-the Fridge-I don't want to drink cold milk that has to be chilled in a river.
3-my Ipod-I can sing a lot better when the tune isn't just notes rattling around in my head..this will also help those around me stand said singing.
4-my computer with high-speed internet capabilities-email is AWESOME when used appropriately
5-cellphone-I like to have my mom and other family/friends within speed dial range(well those who choose to be in THIS country..YOU know who YOU are)(you also know how I much I love ya too, I hope)
6-flashlight-no fire hazard like a lantern and I won't be met with anything unsuspected in the dark...I will even use a solar-powered one so it won't need batteries.
7-my car-I never realized how much baggage(literal, not figurative) comes with having 2 kids.  The double stroller is awesome, but my car holds all of us AND the stroller.
8-Washing Machine- well, who am I kidding? I take long enough to wash clothes in the washer, who knows if they'd ever get done if I had to hand wash them?
9-Heating Pad- sometimes it feels so nice to cuddle with it-even sometimes in the summer
10-microwave-even though things taste better being cooked over the fire, this would be the quick convenience that I could use when I don't want to cook...kind of like now.
