   1. Do you like or dislike surprises? Why or why not? I don’t think I’ve ever been surprised in a good way. I’m the one that surprises for birthdays, surprise gifts, whatever. I don’t get surprises.
   2. In the evening, would you rather play a game, visit a relative, watch a movie, or read? If there was the option to visit a dead relative, I’d pick my Mom. I can’t think of any living relatives I’d want to visit. I usually read, or read and watch a movie. 
   3. Would you rather vacation in Hawaii or Alaska, and why?  Alaska sounds cool.
   4. Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why? Win the lottery. I can’t work, unless those things disappeared as part of the deal. And I just don’t want to deal with nasty people. I’ve had the perfect job, in that I was performing a job I liked. I just never got the salary I deserved or raises.
   5. If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to? 1992.
   6. Aside from necessities, what one thing could you not go a day without? Seeing or talking to my kids. As much as my daughter drives me crazy, I still want to hear from her every day.
   7. How many pairs of shoes do you own? Probably 20 if you count winter boots and sandals.
   8. What would you do if you won the lottery? I actually have a list. (That’s probably why I’m not winning.) 
   9. What form of public transportation do you prefer? (air, boat, train, bus, car, etc.) I liked the METRA train when I took it to work. I actually really prefer driving in general. I love driving.
   10. What's your favorite zoo animal? Penguins.
   11. If you could go back in time to change one thing, what would it be? Not gotten married the first time.
   12. How many pillows do you sleep with? 6.
   13. What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)? I think I went 4 days without sleep when my Mom passed away. It was a shock. I lived on coffee, which I never drank before my Mom died.
   14. What's the tallest building you've been to the top in? Probably the John Hancock. I was helping a co-worker at my job do a 2nd job clearing out apartments. Can’t remember what floor it was. 
   15.  What are your hobbies? I don’t have time for hobbies right now. I go to PT 3 days a week for 2.5 hours each visit. Outside of that, I’m recovering from the pain from PT. If I were able bodied and had time and a work area, I’d refinish furniture and paint garden art. In the past I’ve refinished several pieces and even refinished hardwood flooring.
