Were you born early, late or right on time? I was born late. And I'm still running late to this day.

Chicken pox? Yes. I was thirteen. It was horrendous. I had it literally EVERYWHERE!

Allergic to bees? Not that I know of. I have an intense fear of bees (and spiders) and of being stung by them. I once destroyed a hot dog inside my boyfriend's car trying to escape when one flew in through a cracked window (talk about a brilliant navigator).

How about strawberries? No allergies, love them fresh and untainted by added sugar or cream.

Hereditary illness? I don't have any but I have an Uncle on my mother's side who was insulin dependent.

Have you ever been in a car accident? Two. The first was just after a snow storm. I lost control of the truck I was driving and donuted across the highway into the opposite ditch. I was shell shocked as a transport went by. I tried to drive out of the ditch. It wasn't until I got out of the truck that I realized how incredibly impossible that was. The truck was practically on it's tale end. The second time I was driving down main street and a senior turned in front of me. He was in a hurry to go to Taco Bell. Thank goodness for insurance.

How much do you smoke? I haven't smoked since I was 18.

How much do you drink? Unfortunately, my seizure medication prevents it. But it's tempting.

Is your cholesterol normal? Yes ma'am!

Have you ever run a marathon? I ran a marathon when I was in college. I think it was a Royal LaPage run for women. It was cool. I finished before other people and everything.

How many x-ray's have you had (not including dentist)? Two of my back when I broke it and two of my head when I started having seizures.

Have you ever had surgery? Nothing invasive, and I'd like to keep it that way.

Do you watch what you eat? I watch it go in. Does that count? Seriously, I try to drink lots of water, eat my fruits and veggies and reduce my junk intake. Some days are better than others. Today was a good day.

When was the last time you worked out? Today, I did two hours of weeding, shovelling and raking in the yard.

What is your ideal weight? 155 lbs

Current? Beyond your comprehension.

How old was the oldest living relative in your immediate family? 92

Veggies or Fruit? Probably fruit.

Low-carb or High-carb? I'm Irish. We don't give up our potatoes without a fight.

How do you want to die? I want to live forever. Think Highlander.
