Huffle Mawson's mum
Here's how it goes..
Either (1) post 7 facts about yourself AND photos OR (2) post 10 facts about yourself with no photos, OR (3) post a childhood picture of yourself.”
So here goes..
- I adore animals of all kinds and would never harm any ( even squirrels ) Some of my most magical moments have involved animals, some are pictured here, like swimming with dolphins, feeding baby joeys, feeding giraffes face to face and seeing those huge eyes.. so close
- I had a happy childhood growing up in a small village before going away to nurse in the army. I enjoyed the nursing very much, but marred a man that was not at all good to me, (broken bones etc.)
- I was lucky enough to meet my wonderful husband who treats me like a queen, and takes me to all the places I only dreamt about. To meet him was fate and wonderful.
- We married in wonderful Las Vegas, and as I love Bon Jovi picked the chapel were he got married. Had a magical time there including having champagne breakfast in the grand can ion.
- I have done some of the things I always wanted to do, like climb the Sidney harbour bridge, para glide down a canion in Australia, take a balloon flight. Paracend, to name some. I like to hope there are more things left yet.
- I want to take a trip right round the USA, we have been to some places but not enough. Barrie has been to many more with work and will hopefully take me to some of them.( wishing)
- I want to go back to Australia soon, we didn't see nearly enough while we were there.
- I have eight lovely grandchildren, and have two great grandchildren on the way. One in September and one due Christmas day. Wow
- I have always loved cats, Jasper is a much loved ginger beauty, who I adore.
- I work full time as a rapid responder for a social alarm provider. I work shifts and find I tire so easily. Only just over two years until retirement hopefuly. The on call is a killer. lol
I think this is enough for now, sorry for going on and hope you were not bored.
I think a lot have done this meme, so please f you would like to do it please do. It is actually so much fun and when you get started could go on for ages. ( I curbed that)
Thank you Jasper for letting me do this. Back to you tomorrow.
Love carol xxx Not forgetting GJ xx

That was fun! I love the photo of you on the motorcycle. And it makes me glad that you found a much, much better person to marry who treats you right. You deserve it!
We loved this! My mom did hers today too. We love all of your adventures and are just so happy you found happiness!
Wow, you are so so adventurous! Our mom is very envious of that. She is such a scaredy cat, she would never go up in a hot air balloon or paraglide! She only wishes she had the nerve!
We are so glad you found the man to treat you like a queen, as it should be!
Love the Vegas wedding! Our mom loves Bon Jovi too!
How wonderful to see the Mum behind the cat. What wonderful adventures you have had - life is good now and you deserve it.

WOW! What a fabulous post ~ I hardly know whee to start. The photos are gorgeous and you are certainly looking good for your age. You are so right we have had many similar experiences (air sports etc) and most definitely share a love of animals.
Your wedding pic is gorgeous and ! envy you being so close to retirement. I have 7 years to go (but should have retired in 3 years had the government not phased in later retirement ages!)
Thanks for taking part.

Ok, first you have to be kidding about the great-grandchild thing - what were you like five when you had your children. You don't look like you could have them on the way! And you seem to have had a lot of wonderful experiences in life - the animal stuff would be wonderful. I am so jealous of that!!
