Share Your World With Cee Cee 2013 Week 32

Posted on by under For Family & Fun

share-your-world2Can you believe it’s week 32 of Share Your World 2013? Only 20 weeks left until we begin Share Your World 2014.  Ok…Ok… before we frighten ourselves right out of blogging let’s just focus on the week we are on shall we? Please check out Cee’s other contributors at http://www.ceephotography.com/2013/09/16/share-your-world-2013-week-32/

Here are my answers:

If you could be a tree or plant, what would you be? 

I would like to be a giant sequoia. This largest of trees only stands because it intertwines its roots with other sequoias and so is upheld most powerfully in community!

If you were an ice cream cone how many scoops and flavors would you be and why?

I would be two scoops of Rocky Road.Because I love chocolate nuts and marshmallows but too much of a good thing is just too much. Two scoops is more than enough.

What type of pets do you have or want?

I have two Maltese dogs and a puppy I am preparing for the mission field right now.

Where do you hide junk when people come over?

We don’t hide junk. People must take us as we are.

This week Cee has asked some really fun questions and I hope I can do them justice in the few minutes I have before prayer meeting. If you would like to see how others have answered go to http://www.ceephotography.com/2013/09/09/share-your-world-2013-week-31/

Do you push the elevator button more than once and do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?

I always push the button at least twice and the second time is more of a pulse tap so it technically qualifies as five or six hits. I am convinced that this is how you get the elevator to move at light speed. Oh dancing in the elevator also makes it move faster in case you were wondering.

If you had the choice between an RV, a sports car, truck, SUV, or a bicycle, which would you choose and why?

This week it would be an RV. I think I would hit the road for a nice road trip.

If you HAD to change your name, what would you change it to?

Zerubbabel. I have always liked that name. 🙂 You could call me Zeb for short. I am pretty sure my son would not like this name though. it has been tough enough being Joseph Elon VI. Can you imagine being Zerubbabel Elon VI?

Is it more important to love or be loved?

Oh boy! There are all kinds of scriptural connotations with this question. Love is a commitment we are all called to make and true love is presupposed with a reward of love returned from the Source of Love. When we love we get love from the Source of Love even if not directly from the one (s) we are loving. So I would say loving is more important because it is in loving that we discover we are loved.

Hey Ho! I have a few minutes between meetings tonight. So I thought I would answer Cee’s great questions at this juncture. To read more “Share Your World” posts go to http://www.ceephotography.com/2013/09/02/share-your-world-2013-week-30/ .

If life was ‘just a bowl of cherries’… which fruit would you rather be..?

I think today I would be a peach. I just finished canning fresh peaches and making batches and batches of peach jelly.

If you could witness or physically attend any event past, present or future, what would it be?

I would love to be an eyewitness to the resurrection of Christ. My second choice would be to see the chariots of fire whisking Elijah from the Earth.

If you could know the answer to any question, besides “What is the meaning of life?”, what would it be?

Who thought of tapioca pudding?

If you were a crayon, what color would you be?

I love the question. It’s so colorful 🙂 If I were a crayon just now I think I would be taupe, which is sort of a greeny grey brown. I am just coming off of a very busy season of ministry and I am sort of ready to hide myself away. Being taupe would make that a lot easier.

A Little Too Busy

Posted on by under For Family & Fun

I was doing my bills the other night and had just finished up with the portion that I needed to pay. Since this was the batch I don’t do electronically I had tucked them safely into their envelopes, affixed stamps and return addresses to the outside and headed them off to the mailbox. The curtains were drawn for the night (it being well into the evening); So I thought to myself “I will just put them out in the morning.”  Then I promptly threw them into the wood stove. You heard me correctly into the wood stove.

The worst part of it is the next morning when I got up and began looking for the bills I could not find them anywhere.

I kept telling my loved ones, “I put them right here on top of the wood stove.”

That’s when my daughter (bless her heart) decided to look in the wood stove. I was chuckling at the insanity of the idea until…

I guess I can be happy  it’s not burning season.

I think I may be getting just a little too busy. What do you think?

PARTY ON

Puppies!

Many of you have asked to be kept up to date on the state of the puppies. Well, they were born a week ago. Three boys if I am right about things. Mother and babes are doing just fine!

Winter Puppies

This is what happens when little white dogs meet with a little wet snow!

Nothing a half hour with a blow dryer and a dog brush won’t fix!
