Share Your World – 2015 Week #6

And the questions of the week from Cee are…

What was the last time you went to a new place?

The last time I went somewhere I had never been before was in October when I went to Ireland.

Me at the Rock of Cashel

If you were or are a writer do you prefer writing short stories, poems or novels, other?  And what type of genre would you prefer?

I love writing all of the above. One of my favorite exercises here in the blogosphere is to write a complete story in a hundred words or so. I haven’t been able to practice in a bit but I love to take the Friday Fictioneers challenge at Rochelle’s blog here

 I am not currently in a poetry phase but I do have books of the stuff. Right now I am working on a novel I hope to have published soon.

Out of your five senses (touch, taste, sight, smell, hearing) which is your favorite?

I think hearing is my favorite sense. I would be very sad if I could no longer hear the whisper of the winds through the trees or the rush of the waves along the shore. The world is full of music I would miss dearly if I could not hear it. There is something powerful and even life changing in the beat of the drum and the cry of the whistle.

If 100 people your age were chosen at random, how many do you think you’d find leading a more satisfying life than yours?

Not many. I am growing more and more content everyday as I see the purposes of God coming to their fulfillment in my life.

Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

I am really glad I got up through chapter 19 sent off to the editors/publishers last week. Hopefully this week I will finish the book.

It’s that time of the week again when a bunch of us bloggers share our world. If you would like to share a bit of your world go to:

And learn the rules of sharing your world with Cee!

Here are the questions:

Do you prefer shopping or going to a park?

I love the park. I am not a huge shopper.

If you were a shoe, what kind would you be and why?

I would be a snow boot because right now I need the insulation. Although sometime around June I would want to convert to being a sandal.

What’s the story behind a time when you got locked out?

Oh! This is a good one. When the kids were little I took my daughter and son to camp. I worked as a counsellor and they were campers. During the week I was gone, the front door broke. My wife being very handy replaced the door but did not put the old knobs back on. When the kids and I got home at the end of a very long week of camp my house keys no longer worked and we could not get back into the house.

Do you prefer eating foods with nuts or no nuts? 

Depends what it is. An ice cream sundae is much better with nuts. Mashed potatoes? Not so much.

Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

I am really grateful that we had time to clean up from the last snowstorm before this one came in. Some folks in Boston were not so lucky. I am looking forward to getting cleaned up from winter storm Linus and perhaps then finishing the rewrites on my book.

Week four of 2015 already! Only 46 weeks left to shop for Christmas. But when your not doing that you should check out how  Cee’s other contributors answered her questions this week.

Share Your World – 2015 Week #4

Here are the questions in question:

Where did you live at age five?  Is it the same place or town you live now?

When I was five my parents were renting out a house that belonged to my Uncle Dick and Aunt Lore. They were stationed in Hawaii while Uncle Dick was deployed to Viet Nam. I live about two miles from that house now. I drive by it every time I take my car to the mechanic.

You are invited to a party that will be attended by many fascinating people you never met.  Would you attend this party if you were to go by yourself?

It really depends on the type of party. If it’s a sit down dinner party where I can share in table conversation then yes. If it’s a mixer then no.

Did you grow up in a small or big town? Did you like it?

I grew up in a small town. I loved it and still love living in that small town.

As a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I went through most of the boyhood dreams of being a cop, a fireman, a vet, a zoo keeper etc. But I settled on my real career choices by the time I was in eighth grad. I knew at that point I was called to be a minister and a writer.

Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

I am grateful that last week I was able to create some new processes that will help with ministry. I am looking forward to getting some good photos after this blizzard.
