1. Are you comfortable as a leader or as a follower? I've always been more of a leader than a follower. I think it's because deep down I'm really a control freak.

2. Which is more important, intelligence or common sense? Common sense - nobody seems to have it (or use it) anymore.

3. When you’re having a bad day, what do you do to feel better? This has changed so much since surgery - for the first 40+ years of my life it was simply - EATING that made me feel better. Now I still love to cook for those around me - I find it really gives me a reason to refocus my energy. But I'm just as likely to go for a long walk as anything. Occassionally I give in and have a really good pity party - complete with whining and crying.

4. Who is one of your heroes and why do they inspire you? I was blessed to have 2 very wonderful Grandmothers - Mammy Margaret (M&M) & Mammy Parker. They taught me so very much about living life to the absolute limit. M&M had terrible arthritis in her hips and spine and was stooped over from as early as I can remember - but she never once complained. She always found things to be thankful for. Mammy Parker was in a car accident when she was 75 and could never walk again. She lived to be 96. She was incredible. Never once did being in a wheelchair slow her down from doing anything she wanted to do.

 Hi Iris! 
Back from NC and trying to recover from the awesome time we had. 

1. Are you comfortable as a leader or as a follower? If I am knowledgeable about what I am leading then I can do it. If I am clueless or even mildly knowledgeable then I would rather follow and learn to lead. 

2. Which is more important, intelligence or common sense?  Common sense hands down. If you have enough common sense you can gain the intelligence. 

 

3. When you’re having a bad day, what do you do to feel better? sleep has always been my go to. 

 

4. Who is one of your heroes and why do they inspire you? My mom. She has been thru a lot in her time and I have watched her handle some pretty tough things like a true lady with class and grace.
