So, Toni over at Expatmum sent me these 5 questions YONKS AGO and I’m just now getting around to answering them all. They took a lot of mulling over!
1. How long have you lived in Florida and what do you think of it?
I was dragged to Tampa, Florida in 1988 and have to say that I absolutely hated it from the moment I got off the plane, was seated in the back seat of a convertible car (not the best position to be in) and deposited in suburbia! A huge history buff I just saw Florida as hotter than hot, palm trees, ugly shopping plazas, massive motorways and kept running in to tank-topped, fat, hairy, belching men who liked to tell me how much I looked like Hayley Mills! I have made some amazing friends and have learned to love my life here. I found the real Florida and discovered that there actually is a lot of history here — I just have never felt settled.
2. Describe some of the challenges of having three boys, (I only have 2).
Oooh, they skip through the daisies and always help each other out! NOT! Of course, there is teasing, biting, arguing, smack-downs and more! But, they all really get on well and love each other fiercely — they’re brothers and for better or worse they are going to have a bond that will take them through the rest of their lives.
There is a bit of an age difference between the little man and his big brothers, but on the whole they do take on the role of a caretaker with him which is really heart-warming to see. I am finding that they are starting to tease him as all kids do, but the little guy is learning fast — he has to to survive in this family. He hails from a long line of jokers with a dry and sarcastic sense of humour.
3. You seem to be a very active blogger with Twitter and Posh mama going too. How much time do you spend per day on bloggy stuff?
Unfortunately, my job has taken over and I’ve hardly had any free time for blogging.
4. What are your plans for 2009?
World domination, of course!
2. I will respond by emailing you five questions. (I get to pick the
questions).
3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions and let me know when you have posted it, so I can link it.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview
someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask
them five questions.
Have fun.










you really think you’ll go back to live there? When did your husband come over?
Interview me then, go on, I dare ya.
the palm trees are kind of cool. i always liked those.
World domination…I like that!
