    Yes, Irish and Irish Folklore, followed by accounting, followed by Irish again, followed by Terminology. Kept going back to college to avoid becoming a full-blown grown-up!

    Do you worry that your life will be no different in 10 years time?

    Ahhh...ironic....was just thinking along these lines yesterday. Worry about my life?....no. I have three kids under age eleven so I know they alone will add much color to my life over the next decade. My career?....yes. Ten years ago my big career aspiration was to have my own business which, fortunately, happened in 2005. Just yesterday I was stumped in trying to answer where I want my career to be in 2025. Which makes me question how do you measure success from a business standpoint. Via happiness? Being challenged in a healthy way? Finances/Revenue? Personal and/or professional growth? Mentoring? Portfolio of work? Awards?

    If you could take spouse/partner/loved one somewhere that's special to you but the two of you have not yet experienced together where would it be and why?

    Vienna. We've been wanting to go for years but have not yet gotten around to it. Scenery should be lovely, as well as the pastries. We do plan to go in 2016.

    What is the one thing you'd like to change in your life this year?

    We've had a tenant in our granny flat (an apartment connected to our house) which is a young guy who has his mates hanging around leaving empty beer bottles & causing a ruckus on some weekends so we can't wait to give him the boot! It's happening soon so yippee :-))

    If you could change one thing about your life what would it be?

    I would have ended my relationship with my ex in the first year, can't say never had the relationship cause iI wouldn't have my son. But I would have saved myself the extra decade or so of hell. I would also have never tried smoking. Would love a time machine. Other stuff I wish I had the power to change but I don't.

    What is one thing in your life you would never change?

    My nationality and homeland (well I'd never leave, would fix some things though!)

    If you could change one thing about your country what would it be?

    Yesterday, my son had been sick so I bought him a hot wheels car to cheer him up

    What did you have for lunch today? (Boring I know but I'm interested in food :-) )

    I had an egg with tomates and asparagus.

    what's for dinner? (I'm highly interested in food as well lol)

    I love food too. Tonight we had "hobo" dinners. A hamburger patty seasoned and placed on aluminum foil and topped with veggies. Tonight we had sweet potatoes, onions, carrots, cabbage and spinach. Wrap the whole thing up and bake. It's really yummy and easy for school/work week nights. Kids love them bc they get their own pocket. Also, it's super easy to clean up

    Do you pack your lunch every day or buy out/at work?

    The best I can describe it is they voice my anger, my pain, my determination, my strength, my sense of humour and happiness with their music. I don't why or how, but I know that it touches my heart and soul and I'm good with that.

    Do you love pretty shoes?
