If you could be famous for one thing, what would it be?

I'll start: I would say, maybe, for creating a wild abstract painting that became iconic. I really like to paint.

What about you? If you could be famous for one thing, what would it be?

    Well, in certain circles, I'm pretty well known for designing, building and managing the main "money mover" system for the bank where I eventually went into Audit.

    If it had a $, it went thru my system … 9,000,000 transactions an HOUR, or 2,500 per second if you do the math.

    It's because of that system that Audit recruited me. They realized that while the CPAs knew what was supposed to happen with moving money … I knew what REALLY happened!

    I have no desire for fame. I don't really like the way that celebrities are treated.

    Among the people who know me, my sense of humor has earned me the nickname "Queen of Dad jokes". That's more than enough "fame" for me.

    This is an interesting topic!

    Honestly, I’d rather be known for being someone who’s referred to as things like genuine, reliable, kind, generous, and who makes a difference to the people around me.

    I am known for "MacGyvering" things as I can fix or make just about anything out of a standard storage box full of stuff. But I too have no desire for fame and if I can cleanly remove a logo, emblem, tag or brand from an item to make it more generic, I will.

    I’d like to be known as an essayist. Writing is something I truly love, though I’d prefer my work to be published posthumously; I find the idea of fame overwhelming.

    Not that I necessarily desire fame, but if fame ever crossed my path it would probably be for relatable chaos…

    The kind where everything between motherhood, marriage, and career is mostly under control, but just unpredictable enough to keep things interesting, and somehow still get the job done. Maybe I should start a podcast? Kidding, I will not be doing that. 😆
