share-your-world2  Check out the question s of the week and a whole world full of answers at

http://ceenphotography.com/2014/09/29/share-your-world-2014-week-39/

Here are my answers:

Did you ever get lost?

I don’t get lost often but when I do it is usually a doozy. Once when the kids were little we took a week at a local campground. I think Joe was probably three and a half which would put Amanda about 2 and a half. I decided to take them on a nature walk around the pond on grounds. Somehow I got off the trail and ended up in apple orchard some three miles from the campsite. I think we would still be walking the road back today if some kind passers-by had not stopped to give us a lift back to the camp.

Who was your best friend in elementary school?

My best friend in elementary school was Eddie Murdock. We lost touch after middle school as he went to a different high school than I did.

Since the news television season has started in the US, list three favorite TV shows.

I am really enjoying the new show Scorpion, Agents of Shield is a favorite from last season and of course the new Dr. Who.

If you were a mouse in your house in the evening, what would you see your family doing?

You would probably see us watching the new television season or maybe playing with the dogs.

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

I am so grateful for the wonderful turn out for the Toy Town Fall Fest and the groundswell of support that was shown for the Ingleside Makerspace Project. About 2000 people came out to see the property we are hoping the town will buy and turn into makerspace.

I am grateful the festival is done and now I can get ready to leave for Ireland. Thursday here we come!

Go to Cee’s  page and see how some of our other friends have answered the questions.

Here are my answers:

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

I think I would be a giant redwood. As I understand it these trees may be the biggest things in the forest but they have very shallow roots and the only way they stand up to the storms of life is by interlocking their roots with other redwood trees. If I had to be a plant I would like to be one in fellowship with other plants.

If you could have a servant come to your house every day for one hour, what would you have them do?

Oh gosh that is a hard one but right about now I would have them take an hour a day to get all the projects around the house done that are being neglected because of my fall work schedule.

If you could have an endless supply of any food, what would you get?

Assuming I could still buy and eat any other kind of food I wanted I would opt for an endless supply of coffee from around the world.

What was one of your first moneymaking jobs (other than babysitting or newspaper delivery)?

Since my dad owned a restaurant one of my first money-making jobs was dishwasher and bus boy.

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 to have had another wonderful weekend with my C.cada friends and this week I am looking forward to the Toy Town Fall Fest. It’s planning crunch time!

It’s time once again to give you a glimpse into my world with Cee’s help of course

share-your-world2

Broaden your own world’s horizons by visiting:

http://ceenphotography.com/2014/09/15/share-your-world-2014-week/

And while you’re at it  share your world with the rest of us by answering these questions in a blog post of your own.

The questions are…

List three pet peeves.

1. alligators in my bed

2. sunspots

3. people who mix liver into fruit salad.

Actually I tried to answer this seriously, but I thought of the people who perpetrate these pet peeves and so I thought it just best to keep the whole thing to myself.

What makes you unique?

Why my pet peeves of course! 🙂

Actually I think the best answer is…God makes me unique. I have a relationship with my Savior God which is intensely personal and unique to me and Him. The good news is that each man and woman in the world can have a unique relationship with God just like mine (that would seem to be the very definition of not unique but that’s the thing with God, He defies definition)

Would be your ideal birthday present, and why?

Lately I have been craving a massage because of my intensely sore and tired muscles. Someone else wrote a day at the spa as their ideal birthday present and I think I could go for that a mud bath and a hot rock treatment right about now.

Which way does the toilet paper roll go? Over or under?

I solved this whole issue by breaking the toilet paper holder off the wall. So currently the toilet paper goes sideways as it sits on the shelf. And I wasn’t even thinking of my pet peeves when I broke it.

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

I am so grateful that just this morning I got up and did a stretching video. it is nice to be back to exercising and I look forward to exercising at least 5 times over the next week.

Watching the next generation rise up gratifies!

 

Yesterday my oldest daughter did a bang up job planning and running her younger sister’s wedding shower. I got to see my little girl in her wedding dress! And then I went to a concert put on by a young man I literally watched grow up in our church. I am glad to see those to whom I will one day pass the torch become powerful in their own right!

Once again it is time to share my world with Cee. Every week Cee asks four questions (and a bonus). We her readers answer and by this everyone has a chance to know us better. A few weeks ago everyone learned I like spaghetti sauce with my peanut butter. This week you will learn:

Do you believe in ghosts? 

I answer with a qualified yes. I believe there are evil spirits that roam the earth (that is biblical by the way see Job 1:7, Rev. 12:9) and I believe they masquerade as the spirits of our dearly departed (2 Cor. 11:14,  1 Sam. 28) for the purpose of deceiving us and drawing us away from the One true God. This is why we are commanded in Scripture not to consult with those who speak to the dead (Deut. 18) . That is perhaps a longer answer than you were looking for but there you go.

Irregardless of your physical fitness, coordination or agility:  If you could play any sport professionally what would it be?  Or if you can’t picture yourself playing sports, what is your favorite sport?

I would be a professional snowboarder or maybe an acrobat.

 

Do you prefer long hair or short hair for yourself?

I prefer short hair on myself. It is getting shorter (or more non-existent) with every passing year.

If you were on an small island, who would you want to be with? And where is it?  How big is it?

My island is big enough to get away from a tsunami but not so big that I can’t get to the beach easily. It is in a zone where the temps stay 75 all the time. I would love to have my family with me on the island. Friends can come and stay for up to two weeks but I need my privacy in between visits.

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

I am so grateful to have gotten my sister all settled in at our house for the next year. The office is set up so she can work.  Now I am looking forward to our dogs transitioning in with each other which will be a lot easier once the female is out of heat!

Now learn a bit about Cee and her other contributors:
