Random Dozen...





1. On a scale of 1-10, how superstitious are you, honestly?  Not very at all!  I would say maybe a 3 lol - if that.  

2. Julius Caesar is quoted as saying, "I came, I saw, I conquered." Which circumstance or experience of yours does this saying best describe?   Lloyd lol - poor guy ;)  I think he WANTED to be conquered though hahahahaha ;)

3. If I peeked in on your day like a mischievous little leprechaun, at what time would I most likely find you blogging?  Either first thing in the morning sat in bed......early afternoon (which is when I have my lunch) or early evening.  Unless it's a day at home and then I will sit at my laptop beside the children while they are doing their homeschool work / crafts etc and it could be ay time of day.....

4. Re springing forward for Daylight Saving Time, is there anything you've ever been really early or really late for?  Years ago Laurence and Chris played soccer on Sunday mornings - when they were about 4 and 6 years old.  My Ex and I forgot to change the clocks and turned up at soccer just as it finished :(  I think we felt so bad that the boys had missed their class that we took them out to McD's or an indoor playground or the park somewhere instead!!!

5. What are you most looking forward to concerning Spring?  Wearing sandals instead of big boots, picnics, just playing outside so much more and knowing we don't need coats with us!!  Park playdates, the outdoor pools and sprayparks opening!!  Going geocaching!!

6. Shamrocks are the national flower of Ireland and are picked on St. Patrick's Day and worn on the lapel or shoulder. Do you wear green on St. Patty's Day? No but we do have special treats that we make for the children to share with their friends and we make special crafts!!

7. One of Caesar's assassins, Casca, said, "But, for my own part, it was Greek to me," which of course means he didn't understand something. Probably his own lines in the play. Anyway, what is something that is "Greek to you," something incomprehensible or indecipherable?   Highschool math!!  It's like nothing I ever saw in the UK!!  

8. Is March behaving more like a lion or a lamb where you live? March is acting like a lamb this year and I'm LOVING it :)  they keep saying it might change - and that wouldn't surprise me - and we do NEED more snow, but I am LOVING this weather :)  The snow is almost all gone!!!!  We're even having a thunderstorm right NOW - thunder and lightning!!!!

9. "An extra yawn one morning in the springtime, an extra snooze one night in the autumn is all that we ask in return for dazzling gifts. We borrow an hour one night in April; we pay it back with golden interest five months later." -Winston Churchill. If you had one extra hour per day every day, what would you do with it?  More of the little flowers that Lucy posted on Attic 24 ;)

10. Legend says that every Leprechaun has a pot of gold hidden deep in the Irish countryside. Aside from real gold or money, what material item would be in your dream pot of gold?     nice pens and notebooks :)

11. "The best things are nearest: breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of God just before you." Robert Louis Stevenson. Look around you right now and tell us about something essential or beautiful very near you that you take for granted every day.      The sunrise

12. Just for a bit o' fun, click here(www.blogthings.com/irishnamegenerator/) and then report your Irish name. Mine is "Zoe O'Sullivan." I love it!   Aishling O'Mahony
