Hi everyone,

Well.. since I have only been posting this week, I just wanted to get to know everyone better so I'm posting this Icebreaker to get to know you guys better. I will answer first

If you could have an endless supply of any food, what would you get?
- Bread, I am a major carb-a-holic

If you were an animal, what would you be and why?
- I would be an Artic seal : soft, cuddly, round (whats not to like)

What is one goal you’d like to accomplish during your lifetime?
- I would like to see all my kids (esp. the two special needs ones) graduate from H.S.

When you were little, who was your favorite super hero and why?
- Wonder woman: because my brother had superman underoos and I had wonder woman ones and I thought that was GREAT!

Who is your hero? (a parent, a celebrity, an influential person in one’s life)
- My grandmother who died in 2001, she was the nicest, sweetest woman in the whole world and she was in a wheelchair for the last 10-15 yrs of her life. She never complained but I know she felt like a burden, I get my strength from her!

What’s your favorite thing to do in the summer?
- Take care of my garden but that's HARD to do in GA heat!

If they made a movie of your life, what would it be about and which actor would you want to play you?
- Hmmm.. It would be about "never giving up" & I wouldn't mind Halle Berry playing me heh

If you were an ice cream flavor, which one would you be and why?
- I would have to be Coffee flavor. My mom drinks enough I'm surprised I didn't come out in a coffee filter when born. Plus, I do like the flavor of coffee.

What’s your favorite cartoon character, and why?
- It's a show my kids watch, "Chowder". He is just funny and makes me laugh when I feel stressed out.

If you could visit any place in the world, where would you choose to go and why
- I always wanted to go to Scotland, but I don't fly so I would have to take a LONG boat ride which.. someday I might! I just love medieval times and castles and I just think scotland would be neat to visit.

What’s the ideal dream job for you?
- Being paid to be a mom But, if I needed to do a real job. Hmm.. doing what I hope to do in the future, being a social worker. I like talking to people and helping them. I really enjoyed my internship in Hospice. It's a humbling experience.

Are you a morning or night person?
- I am both, I stay up late and I rise early/painfully in the morning. Probably why I have to take afternoon naps!

What are your favorite hobbies?
- I love sports!! I like playing online poker, love to read, and spend time with my little munchkins.

What are your pet peeves or interesting things about you that you dislike?
- Oooo.. I get such BAD road rage when I'm driving. What can I say, I'm a bostonian: no one can drive as good as us I don't like people that hurt kids, or people with disabilities, or the elderly. I don't like when my kids mess with the toilet seat!

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever eaten?
- Ugh.. one time I had chinese food and I found a palmetto bug in it. I don't know if I had any of it but hmm.. I hear bugs have good protein!

Name one of your favorite things about someone in your family.
- I love that all three of my sons are very respectful to adults and have manners and are just good hearted kids.

Tell us about a unique or quirky habit of yours.
- Ugh..well... it could either be my pen fetish. I LOVE collecting and having a ton of pens - going to STAPLES makes me shiver or it could be, I used to eat foam from when I was a baby and I ate the foam baby bumper and used to swallow it to now just finding foam and not swallowing it but chewing on it. I can chew the heck out of a foam egg crate mattress, yum yum!

If you had to describe yourself using three words, it would be…
- Type A, sensitive, and honest

If someone made a movie of your life would it be a drama, a comedy, a romantic-comedy, action film, or science fiction?
- with everything that's happened in my life... DRAMA!

If I could be anybody besides myself, I would be…
- I wouldn't change a thing.. I would choose myself.

Ok.. hopefully I didn't scare anyone with my answers
