Random Questions

Kayla tagged me in a post of random questions.  She came up with her own, which I will attempt to answer here.

1.  What is your favorite holiday?
     I would have to say Christmas even though it is sometimes a crazy time of year.  I love to give gifts, I love
     looking at the beautifully lit Christmas tree, and I love having my kids home.  There are some things I
     don't enjoy, but the good definitely outweighs the bad.

2.  When you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up?  I can't remember too far back,
     but for as long as I remember, I wanted to be a secretary and a stay-at-home mom.  I was fortunate
     to get to do both!

3.  What hobby would you like to take up if you had more money/time?  It's not really a hobby, but if
     I had the time and brainpower, I would love to become a midwife.  Childbirth was such a special time
    and I would enjoy helping other women go through that experience.  I secretly want to be in the right
    place at the right time to have to deliver a baby!

4.  What TV shows do you currently watch?  Since I have cleaned up my television viewing, I don't
     watch nearly as much.  In addition to the Today Show, I watch reruns of old shows (Mash, Bob
     Newhart, Mary Tyler Moore, etc.).  I also like Jeopardy. Paul and I watch television series on Netflix
     (24, White Collar, Flashpoint, etc.)

5.  How long do you spend getting ready on a typical morning?  As little time as possible, but usually
     only about 45 minutes (and it shows)!

6.  What does your name mean?/Why did your parents choose your name?  I don't know what my
     name means and was too lazy to look it up, but I was named after a close friend of my parents.

7.  What's the best gift you've ever received?  A notebook on my 50th birthday which contained
     personal letters from my family and friends.  Such a thoughtful gift from my kiddoes!

Since I don't know how to tag other people and am not imaginative enough to come up with questions,
I guess I'll let some of Kayla's other friends carry on the questions!
