One of the advantages of being late all the time is that you are never on time to see who else was late. Melanie started her challenge post for SHARE YOUR WORLD this week by apologizing for technical difficulties which made her late with posting this week’s challenge. No problem Melanie. I am earlier than usual this week and I was still so late I didn’t even notice your were late!
Ah well. SHARE YOUR WORLD is the challenge where we answer Melanie’s questions and in so doing we share our world’s. Late or not it is always nice to share.
When you have finished reading my answers, take a hop on over to Melanie’s site by clicking on either of the underlined links, and you can share your world with lots of others.
How comfortable are you speaking in front of large groups of people?
I have never minded this. Preaching, singing, acting, teaching…all of that is fine. I do find it very hard to get up in front of business meetings to share for some reason….I am also a nervous wreck before I perform a wedding. Funerals are fine but weddings….don’t even get me started.
What would be the best thing you could reasonably expect to find in a cave?
Shelter from the storm.
What did you think was going to be amazing but turned out to be horrible?
I was very excited about a trip to Gatlinburg TN. Then I got there. The town was probably fine but the hotel we stayed in was so horrible it ruined the whole experience….There was dried spaghetti stuck to the walls and cigarette holes in the shower curtains (who smokes when they are taking a shower?!?)
What’s the silliest thing you’ve observed someone get upset about?
A church steeple.
Gratitude:
Please feel free to share something that gave you an uplifted spirit during this past week. (Optional)
We have a gopher in our yard! It was so much fun seeing him. I supposes I will not like it if he eats my squash….but we have a gopher!!!

Thanks Joseph for Sharing Your World! I think to have your job, one must be comfortable speaking in public (small or large audiences). I can imagine a wedding would be a bit nerve racking. Everyone is nervous and tension is high, so I’m sure that bleeds over a little bit. Shelter? That’s the best answer I’ve gotten to the cave question and so logical besides! 🙂 I hope you complained about that awful hotel room. You’re patient, because I’d have demanded they change it to a clean room without spaghetti on the wall (oh my gosh!! 😮 ) You’ll have to share the story of the steeple some time, it sounds very interesting! Congratulations on the gopher. But watch any root vegetables and any young(ish) fruit trees. Apparently gophers love both..they eat the roots of the tree and the owner of the tree may be none the wiser until the trees dies. I lost a cherry tree to one.
Ahh. That would explain the plum.
