1.) If my closest friends could describe me, they'd say I am: Daring, Witty, Spontaneous, Kind, Loyal, Generous and graced with one of the driest senses of humor on the planet.

2.) Don't be surprised to find me bragging about:  (1) My daughter, Colleen, who I love more than my own life, and my son, Mickey, who passed two years ago this past January.  He returns often, however, to let me and other family members know he's still around and watching over us.

(2) Also, my uncanny ability to tell you, within the first three notes of a song:  what song it is, what Band did the song, who wrote it, the names of the members of the band and a brief history of the band.  I'm a tough competitor in music trivia!

3.) If I had a super power, it would be: to reverse Climate Change and bring peace to the world.

4.) It's the simple things that mean the most. A "small" thing that I adore is: Getting into my comfy bed with freshly clean sheets, MY PILLOWS (like the ones on TV - I've got about 8 of them), a down comforter and bingewatching Twin Peaks and David Lynch movies.

5.) Most days I smell like: Patchouli.

6.) When I grow up, I'm going to: What's growing up?  I'll be a child at heart forever, and that soothes my soul.


7.) You will never, EVER find me willingly in a: yard pulling weeds.  I would do ANYTHING rather than pull one weed.

8.) I want to send a Shout Out to someone special. My life is more extraordinary because of: My daughter, Colleen; my husband, Sam, who knows all my secrets and loves me anyway; my ex-husband (the father of my children), Big Mickey, who is now one of my closest friends; my best friend of 46 years, Karen; and of course my English Bulldog, Hershey, who was my son's dog (I inherited her when he died).
