Q&A About ME
Q&A About Me
Or Mrs Lister’s Q&A as it is otherwise known. I’ve been tagged in this meme by someone who is relatively new to me on twitter, the delightful @confessionsmum who gave her on answers here. Have to say I found some of it quite hard to answer!
Which living person do you most admire, and why?
Every solider. Every fireman. For their selfless bravery. The lady I pass each morning on the way to work who has a major facial disfigurement, she looks completely carefree and it humbles and shames me in equal measure.
When were you happiest?
I’ve had highs and lows in life but I am definitely at my happiest right now.
What was your most embarrassing moment?
That would be when I had coffee with my niece and asked her if she thought her Dad and his boyfriend would get married.
She put down her cup, looked me dead in the eye and said “Do you think my Dad’s gay then?”
I’d thought it was obvious to the whole darn world, but she truly had no idea…. #cringe
Aside from property, what’s the most expensive thing you’ve bought?
My iMac – loves it I do.
What is your most treasured possession?
Children aren’t possessions otherwise I’d pick them. So instead I’d go with a note that I recently received. Or a little gold fish. Or, let’s face it, my HTC.
Where would you like to live?
Wherever the people I love are.
Failing that, New York. Or where I live now.
What’s your favourite smell?
Cookies, no, coffee, no, cake, no, babies, no, aftershave…
Who would play you in the film of your life?
Have recently been told I resemble a young Jenny Aguter so let’s go with her.
Although in reality it’d be more likely to be Victoria Wood!
What is your favourite book?
All books, every book, books are bloody great, I love them. One that sticks in my mind is: Kafka On The Shore
What is your most unappealing habit?
Laziness.
What would be your fancy dress costume of choice?
A witch.
What is your earliest memory?
I’m not really sure.
What is your guiltiest pleasure?
Talking to stray cats. Come Dine With Me. Minstrels & hula-hoops (together, try it). Cheesy pop. Zac Efron….
What do you owe your parents?
Life I guess.
To whom would you most like to say sorry, and why?
I guess to my STBXH, I’m sorry it didn’t work.
What or who is the greatest love of your life?
He knows.
What does love feel like?
An all consuming sense of being bullet proof.
What was the best kiss of your life?
Every one, the next one, the last one. The one at about 12 noon on Sunday.
Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
That’s not going to happen.
This displeases me.
Enough boys!
I won’t tell you again.
I’ll let you know when you ask me properly.
Elvis NO!
What is the worst job you’ve done?
Paper round, I hated every minute of it.
If you could edit your past, what would you change?
I don’t know, that ‘s really hard to answer. If I changed anything then would I still be as happy now?
What is the closest you’ve come to death?
Rather not answer that.
What do you consider your greatest achievement?
My children, god they’re amazing.
When did you last cry, and why?
When I read the blog post that Rosanne had written about me. I was so touched.
How do you relax?
Reading a good book. An oh so cold glass of fizz. A good cuppa and a rich tea. A cuddle from someone who means it. Losing myself in a tv show.
What single thing would improve the quality of your life?
If my boys father would cherish them.
What is the most important lesson life has taught you?
It’s too short. Live it and love it.

I particulary love your last answer. You so right. Life is so short and we take it for advantage far to much.
