1.I'm the youngest of three children. I have a sister 16 years older and a brother 12 years older than me. I am the baby of the family and always will be.
2. I have green eyes. They are my favourite feature, actually the only feature I am truly happy with.
3.I have the best Mum in the world. She is also my closest friend, the one person that truly understands me and my weird ways.
4.My Daddy, yes, Daddy, was my rock. He was truly amazing. A real gentleman, a wonderful husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. In his late 70's he was diagnosed with Parkinsons Disease. He beat Bowel Cancer during this time but as strong as he was and as hard as he fought he couldn't conquer Parkinsons Disease. It was horrible to watch and be able to do very little. Finally he gave in and died in the early hours of Sunday 30th June 2008 at the age of 87. He had a good innings but I miss him so much.
5.My real name is Cathy, not Catherine, Cathleen just plain Cathy. I loathe it so most people call me Cath.
6.I married Tom on 09/09/1990. The date was pure coincidence. We recently celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary. He's a wonderful man. I'm very lucky.
7. We have two beautiful daughters. They were born in 1994 and 1996 which makes them teenagers. They give me strength!
8. I've only had one place of employment. I worked for a large Commonwealth Government Department for just over 11 years. One day I got sick, walked out the door and never went back!
9.That brings me to the fact that I left work due to illness. I had Chronic Anxiety Attacks which led to several months of Agoraphobia and of course then Severe Depression all of which I still suffer from today. If you need a friend just yell! I'm lucky that I lead a pretty normal life thanks to an amazing Doctor and some medication.
10.The first time I went to a pub was The Charles Hotel to see The Angels. I was 16. I didn't have one alcoholic drink. I loved the experience of live music and still do.
11.I'm a live concert addict. I have seen so many local and overseas bands/singers it's ridiculous and I have a whole stack of tickets for forthcoming concerts on my pin up board, it's almost embarrassing.
12.I like to think I can save the world. If there's something I can do to help someone I will do it. I have to learn that I can not save the world, I can however try my best.
13.I was born on the 20th September in Mount Lawley. I lived in Mount Lawley until I was married.
14.I'm still good friends with at least 5 people I went to Kindergarten, Primary School and High School with. This year is our 30th Anniversary of finishing Year 12.
15.In 2000 I spent close to a month in London and Paris. It was a dream holiday. I am truly blessed.
