Theme from Forrest Gump (I hit enter before I put in the title, duh!)

 

I found this meme over at Leigh's journal, I Was Thinking.. .

 
Leigh came up with these questions to interview me!
 
1. What is the most daring thing you have ever done?
I have the real answer to this, and the one that I will give here online, where my kids can read it!  Also, daring can mean different things to different people.  LOL  The most daring thing I have ever done would have to be taking the Stock Brokers Exam (passing with mid 90's), and trying to work as a broker for about 8 months, on commission only.  I didn't do very well, but a lot of that was due to the company I ended up working at!  (long story)
 
2. What was your favorite subject in High School?
I liked everything except for the harder maths; intermediate algebra, trigonometry and pre-calculus were very tough.  Those I did because I had to do so, not because I wanted to do so.  I loved all the sciences, english lit, history, and spanish!  My spanish still gets me by to this day!
 
Oh dear, pick one, Dawn.... okay - science!!! I loved it most each year, Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
 
3. What would you do if you won a huge Lottery Jackpot?
Oh wow... so many things.  First, put away a chunk for each kid, in trust until 25.  Second, set up another account to cover college and expenses for each.  Next, pay off the mortgage and all outstanding bills.  Then, set up a $10K allowance monthly to go to my parents, so they could stop working or not, depending on what they wanted to do, but either way, financially they would be covered.  I would also give money to certain charities that mean a lot to me and mine. 
 
Hubby and I would be able to travel more with the kids as a family, and not worry about money, that would be the best part.  I wouldn't change anything else. Great question!
 
4. How many toppings are on your Pizza?
I like chopped onions and peppers, or sausage.  I hate pepperoni on pizza because it gets so greasy.  Hubby loves it though!  lol I will try other things occasionally, but those are the basic toppings I will order!
 
5. You can Time Travel-When, Where, and Why?
Great question, again!  I have been mulling this over for two days now, and I am still not sure.  Either back in time to England, in the court of Queen Elizabeth I because it is one of my favorite periods of history, or ahead to the future one hundred years from now, to see my grandchildren's kids, and see if they remember my generation at all, and what their world is like!  So, I guess two answers it is!!! LOL

Thank you, Leigh for interviewing me!  That was a lot of fun!
