Meme Game

The Catholic Warrior tagged me!

Rules of the meme:
1. Post these rules of the game first.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people and posts their names.
Then the tagger goes to the blogs of those who have been tagged & leaves a comment letting new players know they’ve been tagged. The tagger asks them to find the meme and instructions back at his/her blog.

What I was doing 10 years ago:

• I was pregnant with my son,
  
• traveling to a different state and city every week with my job and
  
• our family was facing death threats due to a horrendous situation at my husband's work place. He had found some incriminating evidence that proved fund misappropriations on a huge scale. Unfortunately the authorities were part of the corruption.

10 years ago began a nightmare that forever changed my faith in our (America's) judicial system. The good that came of that nightmare is that we have come to rely on God more. My husband became an inspiration to our family because of his honesty and unwavering resolve. He forgave those who hurt him (physically, as well as many other ways). I still struggle with the anger and fear . . . . and he still guides me back to God.

Five things on my To Do List today:
