We have five children (two of them are my step children) The oldest is 16, then the next two are both 13 (one mine, one step), and the little ones are 5, and 2.  Busy busy busy!

"This too shall pass" - love that quote, and have thought of it often in my life.

Wow.  I have so many.  I had a terrific childhood.  Let's think of one..........thinking...........I would have to say that my favorite memories are camping with my family.  We would take the trailer "down East" - still here on P.E.I., but at the opposite end (and no, you can't walk around the Island in a day).  We would set up the trailer and go swimming at the wharf - jumping off or just splashing around.  I loved roasting marshmallows at night, being able to stay up late, and how my mother would let us put our bathing suits on and dance in the rain.  We took our bikes and went exploring, often visiting relatives down there as well.  *sigh*.....thanks for the trip down memory lane.  That was nice.

Christmas, of course!

Anyone who knows me knows that I go crazy this time of year (in a good way).  I begin to decorate the day after Halloween, and I listen to Christmas music then as well.  Last year I even went out and bought a DVD of a fake fire in a fireplace - with Christmas music playing.  I kept telling the kids that it was getting too hot with it on, and they just shake their heads at me!!  I love everything about that time of year!

I love to bake!  That would be one hobby.  I love to plant flowers - though the indoor ones hate me because they all die.  I LOVE to do crosswords!  Could spend hours with them.........

My cats name is Mischief!  Poor Mischief.......I think he ticked off some crows around here because they keep chasing him.  So funny to watch a grown cat (and a mean one at that) cowering under the car because he's afraid of the big bad crow!  They swoop down at him everytime he comes out in the 'open', or they'll sit up on the wire and 'CAW' at him over and over!  I don't know which is more humorous - him being chased by a crow, or me out there chasing the crow to protect my cat........
