My name is Joann. I live in a very small town in southwest Manitoba, Canada. I am the mother of two "young adults", a daughter who is 23 and a son who is 20. They are both out on their own now and I have recently moved to the town where I teach, into a cute little house that I think of as more like a cottage than a house. I am teaching half time right now and plan to be back fulltime by September. I teach High School (grade 7-12) French, English Language Arts and Computer Technology. I also teach English as an Additional Language (EAL) two nights a week to adults who have recently immigrated to the area. I love using Tools to move forward in my life again. 

all questions»

I really want to start the PFR but I am stumped. I am not able to view any of the media or podcasts. I am on a MACBOOK running the latest version of Tiger and Quick time but I can't seem to get things working. Any ideas???
What is your answer?

I joined TOOLS because:
 I have gone through a lot of changes lately and need some support to embrace my new future.
You are offered your dream job. What job is it?:
 Teaching English in a small town outside of Paris, France
My favorite wild animal is:
 a dolphin
Why (describe as much as possible):
 I love the water and swimming. Whenever I am stressed the first place I head for is the bathtub. Dolphins always look so playful and always seem to be smiling.
My favorite domestic animal is (if you choose dog be specific with breed etc):
 My dog Frodo. Frodo is a cockapoo (3/4 cocker spaniel and 1/4 poodle)
Why:
 Because as long as I feed him, play with him and scratch his belly occasionally for him he is always there for me. When I come home he is always so happy to see me! He listens and never gives me 'tude! (Sometimes he falls asleep but I forgive him)
A famous Chef will prepare anything you want. What do you order:
 I love fish and seafood so any type of seafood dish would be wonderful
Why:
 I like how light and flavorful seafood or fish dishes are so I'll probably have room for dessert :-)
Five people either dead or alive you would have at your fantasy dinner party::
 My mom and dad, Pierre Trudeau, Barack Obama and Jackie Robinson.
Why:
 I miss my mom and dad and they are the reason I am who I am, more or less :-) I think Pierre Trudeau was one of Canada's finest Prime Ministers who brought about a lot of change to Canada just as Barack Obama is about to do in the US. It would be interesting to hear them discuss world issues. I grew up watching baseball with my mom and would love to hear Jackie Robinson's stories first hand.
If a pilot would fly you anywhere you want, you would go to:
 Paris France, where I could explore the city once more and practice my French
My perfect slice of pizza is:
 Greek, I love feta cheese, black olives and tomatoes with an Alfredo sauce.
You are at a bar. You order this drink:
 Irish coffee. I am not much of a drinker but I love the smoothness of Irish Whiskey and a good cup of coffee.
You are at a coffee shop. What coffee or tea do you order:
 Tim Horton's extra large double double.
If a genie could grant you three wishes they would be (separate by commas):
 To be smart and witty to the end of my days, to be fit and healthy to the end of my days, to have a life filled with love
You are going on a long road trip and you can only bring three CD's. Which ones do you bring (separate by commas):
 Josh Groban, Sarah McLaughlin and Holly Cole
If I could do anything for my neighborhood today, it would be:
 I would organize a street party with lots of food and entertainment for young and old alike.
A sunset I remember:
 Any given summer evening driving in my car or sitting on my deck
Any character I could be from a movie, TV show or book would be:
 Sandra Bulloch
Why:
 She is attractive in a very natural way, she plays roles where she seems very smart but she can also be very funny and at times a bit of a klutz.
