As a child, who was your favorite relative?
I would have to choose Nanny, my father’s mother. She lived with us in a separate granny flat until my early teenage years and was always good for a treat. She even let Santa know one year that we wanted a swing set, which he delivered on Christmas morning.
If you could be a tree or plant, what would you be?
As an Australia I love Wattle. It booms in early Spring and it looks glorious when in full bloom. Wattle is our national floral emblem as well as the colours of Australia—green and gold. For more information on see my previous post attached.
What would be your preference, awake before dawn or awake before noon?
Many years ago it would have been sleep to noon, however these days I get up early and a sleep in for me is 8 o’clock.
Would you like to sleep in a human size nest in a tree or be snuggled in a burrowed spot underground?
Being a bit claustrophobic I would choose the human size nest as long as there no wind to destabilize it.
Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?
Last week I got to catch up with a girlfriend of over 20 years in our annual date although this year we are working on making it more frequent. This week I am looking forward having a day off on Friday—my first for 2016.
