I am reading ... It's been a hectic, busy six months so I have assorted books that I can read calmly for a few minutes at a time, in different spots in our house. Growing Pains, an autobiography of Emily Carr is upstairs, one of the Outlander books is in the downstair bathroom and I'm reading Mr Hazens's Get Yerself a Shin O”heat: the Irish Collection to Gerry at night as he shaves. AND Kathy just dropped off Tracy Chevalier's Remarkable Creatures. Someone who makes me laugh is ...my husband, not always at appropriate times At home I cook ...basic stuff...depends on who is home, chili with cornbread on top is on the menu now that David and his family has returned from Calgary. My first job was ... folding very hot sheets off the mangler with Mrs Forward in the Sussex Laundry. A person I admire is ...anyone who speaks easily in public My secret skill is ...keeping secrets I aspire to ...enjoy every day The best invention ever is ...deadlines, as in newspaper deadlines...or commitment deadlines My favourite toy as a child was ... my brother Jim's building set he received from Santa. It had a little green platform, metal rods and red bricks, white windows, doors, etc. I loved it. The best part of what I do for a living is ...making my art ideas become a reality I wish I had ...our bathroom reno finished My favourite vacation spot is ...currently,wherever my grandchildren are; once, New York would have topped the list. If I could invite three people to dinner, alive or dead, they would be .. my grandmother... because it would be nice to see her and as we get older it's always nice to have family questions answered...... maybe who ever thought placing sand under pavement was a great idea, that could lead to a lively discussion.. oh, and whoever takes responsibility for strawberry worms.... If I could have a super power, it would be ... to fly gracefully My favourite thing about the Kennebecasis Valley is ...it has everything I need....almost
