Share Your World 2015 – Week 3

This is Share Your World, a blogging event hosted by Cee’s Photography. Thanks to Cee for all the effort she puts in to coming up with fun new questions every week. Here’s week 3!

Given the choice of anyone in the world, whom would you want as a dinner guest?

I never know how to answer this question. The thought of having any dinner guest gives me anxiety, nevermind a stranger that I admire. I’m not much of a cook. I usually do easy things, not the kind you’d want try to make a good impression with. I’d go with a friend, familiar and safe! They wouldn’t mind my cheesy taco pasta or sweet potato chilli. If I had to pick a stranger, it would be a chef, someone who would volunteer to cook for me, like Rachael Ray or the guy that drives the toaster-mobile. I think his name is Bob Blummer. He’s called the Surreal Gourmet. Always entertaining.

When did you last sing to yourself? To someone else?

I think I was singing in the car Saturday morning while driving to meet a friend for breakfast. “Shake it Off” came on the radio. I couldn’t help myself. The last time I sang to someone else was probably Ewok. I sing to her all the time. I make up dumb songs about how cute she is. I usually take a well known tune and change the lyrics. Hubby hates it (haha), but then he starts singing them too.

If you could wake up tomorrow having gained any one quality or ability, what would it be?

Confidence. I think if I had confidence I would get so much further in life and recover from set backs much quicker.

What, if anything, is too serious to be joked about?

Sometimes there is a need to joke about serious things, it’s how we cope. I think whatever situation you are in, you have all joking rights. When you are talking about someone else, the rules are different. Rape, abuse, murder, suicide, kidnapping, child molesting….I can’t find humor in these things no matter which way you spin it.

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

Last Week: I am always grateful for the support network I have, but especially last week. I don’t have much control over things in my life right now. In order to gain control I need to start making tough decisions about school and what to do about hubby’s job situation. I have hubby, friends and family I can discuss these things with. I know some people aren’t so lucky. This is something I’ll never take for granted.

This Week: I am looking forward to doing some more art journaling and getting some new Lego minifigures. *Please, please, PLEASE let me get the unicorn!*
