Aimee -- Tagged.
The fabulous AB done gone and tagged us (both of us). So, here ya go...
What were you doing ten years ago?
In December '95, I was only six months out of high school and working three part time jobs while I tried to figure out what the hell I wanted to do with my life. I knew I didn't want to go to college but beyond that, I had no clue what I wanted. I'd just said goodbye to a bad and rather abusive relationship that left me with a ton of emotional scars and not too many good memories. It was also the month and year that Drew and I crossed paths again (we'd previously met about a year before but oddly enough, didn't like each other. He thought I was a stuck-up bitch and honestly, I didn't pay him enough mind to form an opinion) when he started working for Publix, and though there was a whole lot of flirting, we didn't actually start dating until May of '96.
What were you doing 1 year ago?
I was trying to get past the heartbreak of almost losing our house (the house I grew up in that we'd bought from my parents in 2001) to foreclosure in October '04 as well as try not to feel resentment or place the blame on either Drew or myself and just accept that it happened. On top of that, I had to deal with the fact that although we managed to sell the house before that happened, my credit was still fucked eight ways to Sunday because I was the primary applicant on the mortgage note. I was also trying to help Cameron adjust to a much smaller place with no pool and no yard, it was hard and it was heartbreaking because there were so many things we had to leave behind like his tree house and his playset and my porch swing and just too much.

Five things you'd do if you were a millionaire?
1) Set Cameron up for whatever its is he wishes to do when he's older.
2) Buy a cute little house for us.
3) As crazy as this sounds, I'd help Drew get his art business off the ground because he's extremely talented and he has the potential to go where ever he wants to go if only he had the means.
4) Pay off the mortgage on my mom's new house because she works entirely too hard and she deserves a break, I'd also put my dad and my grandparents up somewhere because I see how my dad struggles to take care of gramma and papaw and I think he deserves a break too. 5) Travel, travel, travel.
