Firstly the Meme---I was tagged by Paula for this and I have to let you into a few of my secrets.
1----What was I doing 10 years ago--
Well I was still working selling Bernina sewing machines.
This job was a dream job for me in the beginning--all the things that I enjoyed were all in one place--sewing machines-overlockers-fabric-threads-books well what more could one want--
a better boss would have been great.
I would have stayed in that job until I died(I loved it so much)but if I had stayed there longer than the 2 years that I did it probably would have killed me in the end.
Too bad some bosses don't know how to value good staff isn't it.
2---Five things on my to do list today---
OK it's a bit late now for today as it is 8pm on Saturday night here in OZ so I will say for tomorrow---
a--go to church
b--go to the machine embroidery group at the Embroiderers guild
c--do some work on my Studio Journal
d--get fabric ready to make my CQ square for TIF challenge
e--try to get to bed before midnight
3--Snacks that I like---how long have I got to tell you.
I like Potato chips--chocolates--fruit--cheese on toast--ice cream cones----------etc-etc
4--Things that I would do if I were a Billionaire-----
Well the obvious would be to pay off the houses that my 2 eldest children have and I would buy one for my youngest son and Ebony to live in and I would give them some money for extras as well.
I would put money in a trust fund for my 4 grand daughters.
I would give money to my church to pay off the money owing on the building.
I would probably keep some for myself just in case and the rest would probably go to charity because I have all that I need in life.
5--Places I have lived----
a. Burnie in Tasmania
b. Yass in NSW
c. Canberra which is the capital of Australia and is in the ACT .
Well that's it for the meme

Congrats on your awards, Doreen. It was very interesting reading your answers, how unfortunate you were not to have an appreciative boss, I always thought that would be my dream job too :-)
congrats on the award. FYI I attempted to spend a scheduled 30 minutes on the exercises but after a while, feeling a bit stiff, looked at the clock and realized I'd spent nearly 5 hours. Mostly snipping bits of paper. I like the profile exercise. G'night down their in Oz.
Congrats. on your Award - well deserved I must say. Also I loved reading your Meme, and brilliant there was no dusting or hoovering on your 5 must do list!! Val
