2)  If you won 10,000 what would you do with it?

3)  Are you happy with the way your "career" turned out?  (any job you have now, are ya happy with it? )

4)  How many jobs have you held in your adult life?

5)  What motivates you to exercise?

1)  I am an excellent listener and keep secrets rather well.....I give the shirt off my back for anyone who is in need.....

2)  I would put the money away for my surgery and pay some bills

3)  I am on disability, but I loved working with hospice patients and will return to that once I am better....

4)  I have had about 10, we moved alot, so I always had to find new work

5)  The fact that I feel better each day I do exercise, I need to lose the weight before surgery, but more than that I know I am doing something for myself and I don't feel guilty about it.... When we would get to the gym, I struggeled to walk the stairs to the machines, Now I can "jog" up the stairs....       I even suprised myself

1) What makes you a good friend?
I'm not sure I'm qualified to answer this question.  I like to think I'm a good friend, but I think there are some people who would adamantly disagree.

2)  If you won 10,000 what would you do with it?
Hmmmm....go to Hawaii.
3)  Are you happy with the way your "career" turned out?  (any job you have now, are ya happy with it? )
Yes....I'm very happy with my job.  Just wi**** was closer to home...so I guess I should probably move.
4)  How many jobs have you held in your adult life?
Manager at McD's, Book House, Manager of a convenience store, office cleaner, video store clerk, factory worker for an hour and a half one night, and a teacher.  All of the jobs I had before becoming a teacher are what put me through college.

5)  What motivates you to exercise?
My husband. LOL!  We ride to work together.  He has great will power and wants to go to the gym on the way home from work.  So, he motivates me to go in, instead of dropping him off and going home.  Once I'm there, I'm good. 

1.  Oh my gosh.  I can't answer this question!  I don't know and I don't have any friends to ask! 

2.  I would do some minor improvements on my house then sell it and buy another one that I could make wheelchair accessible for my son.

3.  Heck no.  I was a receptionist and now I'm a CFO.  I don't know what I'm doing and I get scared every day that I'm going to mess up. 

4.  7 or 8....janitor at a hair salon, adult video store clerk, grocery stocker, Cub Scout leader, secretary, hospital clerk, controller.....I've been a little bit of everything!

5.  I want to say that I do it to be healthy, but really I do it because I gain weight so easily that if I didn't I'd be right back to 300 lbs.

Wow, it's like True Confession Friday!!!

Chrisina,  Way to go on the exercise!!!  You are going to do so well because of that.

2)  If you won 10,000 what would you do with it? 10,000 what, lol?  Rubberbands?  JK!  I would put it in the bank for a rainy day.

3)  Are you happy with the way your "career" turned out?  (any job you have now, are ya happy with it? )  I love my signmaking job because I work for family.  My hours are flexible and I get to be creative.

5)  What motivates you to exercise? Good question!  I am motivated daily to move because I know that I have to so I can continue to lose weight and keep off what I have lost.  I really enjoy exercise because it is my time for me.  I get to think about whatever I want without someone bothering me.  

1) What makes you a good friend?
 I try to be supportive, I listen, and I am a ball of fun.

I love my job right now as a vet assistant. I like working with animals!!!

4)  How many jobs have you held in your adult life?
I have had alot but no matter what I was hardly ever without a job for a prolonged period of time... I was a manager at McDonalds, a cleaner, Technical Assistant at Saturn, Babysitter, Customer service at Miss Dig, and worked at Disney Store... just to name a few

5)  What motivates you to exercise?
Nothing..but I love to walk my dog Sully- so I guess her

I had to take my time on this one. Sorry. I'm always at the back of the line.
Promise you won't get mad at my answers?


1) What makes you a good friend?
This is the one that took time because I wasn't sure I was a good friend.
The three friends that I have been closest to all said about the same thing to me at one time or another. That I do what I say I'm going to do and that they can trust me to follow through for them.

2)  If you won 10,000 what would you do with it?
First pay what's left on my son's tuition.
Then take care of one of my students who is in a rough financial situation with her family.

3)  Are you happy with the way your "career" turned out?  (any job you have now, are ya happy with it? )
To some degree. If all I had to do was teach my kids that would be fine but the peripheral junk I have to do makes it horrible.

4)  How many jobs have you held in your adult life?
At this point I am now doing 6 things - one full time and 5 part time.

5)  What motivates you to exercise?
Because I can now.
