OK, so I've had to hit the ground running today. We've had intermittent power for a while as they're updating our electrics in the house. Angus and I have been busting our asses tiling the kitchen floor. It's raining in the nursery again. I have work a mile long to do today. Our home PC is knackered but we can't find the discs to rebuild it. And last but not least the babies - who are 8 months old today - have nappy rash, 5 teeth amongst them coming through, and conjunctivitis so we are very popular with the eye drop administration.
So forgive me for taking a very cheap route - I leave it to you*. Ask me a question in the comments and I'll endeavor to answer it tomorrow. Of course I'm not going to answer things like "what's your real name?" and the like that give away my secret superhero identity, but I'll try to address anything else.
Sorry.
And thanks.
-H.
* Yes I feel dirty. This is what happens when your to-do list makes you want to break out the gin.

"Non, je ne regrette rien"
Do you have any regrets? What would you change about your life if you could? Do you believe life is mapped out or are you the captain of your own ship?
Deep huh..! :-)

As the renovations go on, is there one thing that you have repeatedly wished you could have changed or would not have changed? By the same token, have you changed plans since starting the process or are you forging ahead having already made the hard decisions?

I'll leave the complex, deep questions to others to ask. My questions are much simpler:
As my inspirational blogsister, what do you think of my blog? Any improvements recommended? (probably)
Oh yeah, and what is the meaning of life (oops, that's two)?

Does it bug you when people who aren't infertile or having problems conceiving comment on infertility?

When did you know you wanted to become a mom? I am just curious as I am someone who has been in the adamantly "no" camp for years, but it seems that age or biology or something is working on changing my mind.

Are you born with wisdom, or is it something you acquire?
If a fly is buzzing around in an aeroplane while it is in the air, does it increase the mass of the plane?

What brand of Gin?
(For me it depends on purpose - G&T means Tangueray, but a Martini means Bombay Sapphire)
I think I know you well enough to know the answer can't bee beefeater...

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
No seriously, I've asked it and now you have to answer it!
Bwahahaahaha!

If the world was your stage, what bit of thoughts would you share?
If the twins only learn one thing from you(althought I'm sure they will learn more than that, but this is hypothetical you know), what would you like that one thing to be?
Someone struggling with family demons under the couch and in the closet, any advice?

Kind of personal I guess....
But do you think you will ever reconcile with your Mom and Sister? Do you think Nick and Nora will have a relationship with them someday?
Please don't be mad at me for asking.

Don't you think that your Christmas postings would make a neat little book? Y'know, for the impulse-gift aisle.

If you ever write a book- would you allow me to translate it into my language? Just so that my friends who can't understand you (after learning English for 9.long.years.at.school) are finally able to understand my being addicted to reading you?

If I fly you and Angus and Nick and Nora to Dallas, will you do my floors? You seem to have a knack for it.

Actual auestions from my three year old nephew...but why can't we go to Chuck E. Cheeses? Why is the sky blue? Why is there a man in the moon? And the very best one he's asked: But, why did you get divorced?
And most importantly, I have a list as well...wanna help? (as if, right?)

Did you ever find it kinda creepy when the babies moved inside you? Or am I alone on that one?

Do you believe in ghosts?

Do you ever wonder how people have come by your blog? I can't think of anything else to ask as I still have the new mommy sleep deprived baby brain.

What 10 things from American grocery stores do you wish all visitors would pack in their suitcase? No pressure or anything, just, you know if we spotted you at the train station, wearing a red scarf, by the southwest corner at 4 o'clock, reading a worn copy of The Happy Hooker. I mean the Bible, yea, the Bible.

I know traveling isn't on the map at the moment due to young babies and house remodels, but what are a few places you haven't yet been that you really want to go? Or a place you've been to and would like to go back and visit?

If I gave you a magic pass, so you could go back in time ONCE and give your (past) self comfort or advice, which old you would you go back to, and what would you tell yourself?

Do you enjoy having a blog that has so many readers? So many who are interested in your life and family? Or do sometimes you just wish you could be anonymous, completely hidden with privacy - no one knows your blog exists?

Are you taller than Angus?

Do you ever call Angus, or Nick and Nora, "Angus" or "Nick" and "Nora" in real life by mistake?
How would you react if someone recognised you in the street from your blog?
