Share Your World July 23, 2018

Posted on by under For Family & Fun

It feels like I have been out of circulation forever. I have been on a bit of a vacation and today is my first day back sitting in front of a computer in about a week. So as I come back to the blogosphere I am choosing to post my first blog by answering Cee’s SHARE YOUR WORLD CHALLENGE FOR THE WEEK.

share-your-world2

Here are Cee’s weekly questions and my answers. When you have finished use the underlined link above and scoot on over to Cee’s blog and see how her other contributors have answered the questions.

In regards to puzzle what’s your choice: jigsaw, crossword, word search, mazes, logic or numeric puzzles, something else, or nothing?

I never do puzzles, but I am sensing that is about to change as I move more and more into a caregiving role for my Mom. I think puzzles are good stimulation for the brain.

List at least five favorite treats and it doesn’t necessarily have to be food.

I love to watch a good sci-fi or fantasy movie.

I love to binge read sci-fi or fantasy series…In fact sometimes I can’t stop until I have read the whole series.

Raisinets

Boston Fruit Slices

New England Clam Chowder on a cold fall day ( with oyster crackers of course)

What is your favorite type of dog? (can be anything from a specific breed, a stuffed animal or character in a movie)

I love small breeds and I have a particular spce in my heart for Maltese.

In you, Lord, I have taken refuge;
    let me never be put to shame.
2 In your righteousness, rescue me and deliver me;
    turn your ear to me and save me.
3 Be my rock of refuge,
    to which I can always go;
give the command to save me,
    for you are my rock and my fortress.
4 Deliver me, my God, from the hand of the wicked,
    from the grasp of those who are evil and cruel. Psalm 71:1-5

Is there a difference between shame and Holy Spirit conviction? What is it?

How does one go about taking refuge in the Lord?

It is time to SHARE MY WORLD WITH CEE. If you are new to Lillie-Put , Share your world is a weekly challenge I participate in. It is hosted by photo blogger Cee Neuner out of Portland Oregon. Each week Cee asks four questions and people across the blogosphere answer the questions thus “sharing their worlds”.

Cee’s weekly questions and my answers are posted below. When you have finished reading my answers I encourage you to use the underlined link to travel over to Cee’s blog and find other sharing answers.

Since we are approaching the hottest part of our summer in the northern hemisphere, what’s your favorite ice-cream, frozen yogurt or sorbet flavor?  (Those of you who live down under I’m sure you remember what it is like in the hot summer months).

My favorite ice cream flavor is orange pineapple ice cream from Kimball Farms in Jaffrey NH

 

How often do you people watch?

At least once a week. I love watching people and their response to the world around them.
