The Not My Year Meme

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme. Let's go!!!
Today we ripped off a blogger who pens Not My Year Off. She added questions and credited a few tags. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. Take the time to comment on other player's posts. It's a great way to make new friends! Link back to us at Sunday Stealing!

Sunday Stealing: The Not My Year Meme
1. Are you in a job that you truly enjoy?

Yes!  I'm a stay-at-home mom :)
2. If you could do any job in the world what would it be?

I'm doing it!
3. If you could be a character in a novel who would you be?

Allie from The Notebook.
4. When it comes to spending time with those you love, do you think it should be about quality or quantity?

Quantity.  It doesn't matter what we're doing, could be nothing at all, as long as we're together.
5. Is there a job/career you wanted but realized you couldn’t possibly do for one reason or another?

Yeah, I wanted to be a rocket scientist but I realized early on that my grades in science weren't going to be good enough to get me there :P
6. If you could live anywhere in the world or out of this world where would you live?

This is probably going to sound corny but I'm right where I want to be, with my family.
7. Where would you most like to visit and who with?

Italy, with my husband.
8. Which skill would you like to learn?

I wish I was an artist.  I'm a crafter but not at all artsy.
9. What made you laugh today?

My daughter :)
10. What are you looking forward to tomorrow?

My mom is going to stop by.
11. What is your sign and do you believe in horoscopes etc?

Scorpio.  The only thing I believe is that the reason my daughter and I disagree so much and butt heads is because she's a Scorpio too :)
12. If you could change one thing about your life thus far, what would it be?

I would go back and undo the mistakes I made that hurt people I love.
13. If there was one charity you could give a huge contribution to, which charity would it be and why?

That's a hard one to answer.  There are so many charities I'd love to donate to but to pick just one....it would have to be something that helped children in need.
14. Should smoking be legal?

I think the should raise the age limit to 21 but at the same time, I know kids can get their hands on things if they REALLY want to so raising the age limit probably wouldn't make that much of a difference.
15. What are your views on the smoking ban in public places?

If it's banned, it's banned.  If you can't handle not smoking then maybe you shouldn't be at those places.

For fun, to make a little extra money.

Nicholas Sparks.
18. Can you play any musical instruments?

I can play the flute and the trumpet.

I'm a wife, mother, friend and occasional smart ass. :)

Honesty, trust, caring....everything I found in my husband :)
