5x5 + 2x5 = more than you really want to know

Apple and Donna have both tagged me in the latest meme that was started by Randy. We're supposed to tell five things about ourselves in five categories and then tag five bloggers.

2. was spending more money than I had coming in (on stuff for the house, mostly)
3. took some classes at Ivy Tech, Fort Wayne
4. traveled to Kalona, Iowa for the Phend Family Reunion
5. played in the water sprinkler with my nephew
