Super power you most wish you had… To be able to see into the future. 2. Last concert you attended…(Barney counts) OK, don't laugh..Richard Marx...I wanted to see him up close, the music really had nothing to do with it. 3. Historical figure deserving of a smack upside the head…(talking did something stupid here, not Hitleresque) General George Custer...That's hubby's answer. Really not very good at history with the exception of what I learned in romance books. 4. Book you wish you wrote…(if you say DaVinci Code we will all know you are a greedy little devil) the Harry Potter books. Book someone close to you loves that you just don’t get… Outlander by Diana Gabaldon..just can't get through that. Tried several times. May be because there's too much history and I don't get it. ha ha! 1. Super power you most wish you had… To be able to see into the future.

Super power you most wish you had… The ability to be in multiple places at one time to be able to do more things (especially important when you have 3 kids, a career, and you write). Ugh 2. Last concert you attended…(Barney counts) WICKED TINKERS (www.wickedtinkers.com) a totally out of control bagpipe band that can and does play Stairway to Heaven. 3. Historical figure deserving of a smack upside the head…(talking did something stupid here, not Hitleresque) JEB STUART - Come on buddy, if he had been paying attention to his responsiblity and been doing his job he would have seen the northern troops (and potentially heard them) sitting just over the ridge from him heading straight to Gettysburg. Now there's a big oops. 4. Book you wish you wrote…(if you say DaVinci Code we will all know you are a greedy little devil) ANN RICE'S MAYFAIR WITCHES Sure do love those ladies and wow what an intriguing plot. Heck, anyone that can follow 13 generations in one book, keep the story moving and not lose me has my vote. 5. Book someone close to you loves that you just don’t get… CHAUCER - My dad is also a literature major and loves all of that old stuff. Although I too am a lit. major, I have to tell you it doesn't get interesting until Shakespeare. 1. Super power you most wish you had…
