Thanks, Theresa! Here are her questions and my answers =)
1) Favorite Book & Why? A SPELL FOR CHAMELEON by Piers Anthony because it transported me to a place where magic was real and ignited my love for reading as a teen.
2) Favorite Movie & Why? I have so many! I love good sci fi for the excitement and adventure like STAR WARS OR MATRIX and funny romantic comedies that make you feel warm and fuzzy with a happy ending like HOUSESITTER and FRENCH KISS
3) Hobby other than reading and writing? words w/friends & scramble with my sons, movies, planning trips!
4) Dream Vacation? Australia & New Zealand
5) If you could have dinner with one person living or dead who would it be? of the moment, Tim Tebow but I'd have to be able to bring my sons! Of all time, Billy Crystal - he's hilarious!
6) What would the conversation consist of? every day life, personal motivation, fun stories!
7) What would you eat? Steak and shrimp =)
8) Desert Island three items what would they be? (I’m running out of questions) bug spray, sun screen, unlimited power supply and internet access w/ laptop
9) Favorite place to write/read? anywhere quiet and not too bright (like me, ha ha)10) Most embarrassing moment? white shorts, long sweaty car ride to camp with my friend. nuff said.
11) If you had the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing would you? And what would it be? no point, I might change too many things that I'm happy about now!
And thank you, Scarlett for your tag questions!
1. If your life were a book, what would it be titled? From Wild to Mild
2. Tell us a favorite childhood memory. Going to the pond near my Aunt Gloria's house and catching pollywogs with family. Loved it!
3. Is there a time limit on fortune cookie predictions? no. and interpretations may vary.
4. Name three lessons LIFE has taught you. *get into good habits early, training yourself later is HARD! (eat right, exercise, etc), * less drama = more happy, * dream big and turn failures into stepping stones! (pouting is a waste of time)
5. Oceans or Mountains, and why? Both are nice to visit, but I'd take a pool and a massage to go with them!
6. What makes you smile? my sons' accomplishments =) (and feedback!)
7. What would you dare to do if you knew you could not fail? write songs, fly a helicopter
8. Do you believe in ghosts? What about Muppets? not really and yes
9. What is your favorite thing about yourself? relating to teens and teaching them (they make me feel younger =)
10. Given three wishes, what would you wish? jobs for all, selfless politicians/leaders, respectful attitudes
