Mary Beth tagged me

Can you tell I'm bored at work tonight? WE ONLY HAVE ONE PATIENT!!!! This NEVER happens. We have to have 2 nurses in the PICU at all times so I'm in charge and Kerri is the RN of our only patient and that's a step down patient (not very sick). So I've done my Relief Society lesson for next week and worked on my History and now I'm responding to Mary Beth's tag...

What I was Doing Ten Years Ago...

I was busy running my kids to dance, drama, baseball,scouts,etc. Patti was in 2nd grade, Andrew in 4th, Peter in 6th, and LaNelle in 7th. Heather was an apartment manager in Raleigh and I was missing her greatly and actually very sad about her being so far away. I was coaching Peter's Odyssey of the Mind team and we would soon win State and go to Disney World. The twins were not even remotely part of my thoughts...
