"Interview Me"

My blog buddy, Brenda, of It's All Right, posted an interview. These questions are from Brenda. If you'd like me to give you an interview, just leave "Interview Me" in your comments, and I'll shoot over some questions so I can get to know you better, too.



1. If money or time weren't an issue, what would you consider an ideal vacation? I would go The Netherlands. My father was Dutch heritage and I've always dreamed of going there. Since time and money are no issue, I would go all over Europe and end up in Norway & Switzerland. I had a pin-pal from Norway , from the 3rd grade clear until I was married, and I've always wanted to go to Norway



2. Who would you say has had the greatest influence on your life and why? Absolutely my father. I adored him and never wanted to disappoint him. He taught me integrity, honesty, to know who I was and that I could do anything I set my mind to.



3. If you had to be transported back in time which would you choose and why? Victorian Era, Pioneer days, or Bible times? This one was a hard one for me because I have always been so grateful to be born in the time period I have been because I believe we are the generation that will see the Lord return. I guess if I have to pick another it would be Bible times.



4. Who is your favorite woman in the Bible and why? Another very hard one because I'd never thought about that. I have often wondered how it must have been for Mary to know the child she was raising was the Son of God. I marvel at the verse "But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart." Luke 2:19



5. What is one of the funniest things that has ever happened to you? It's funny now, but wasn't so funny at the time......my forever friend, Joan, and I getting locked in the Santa Fe Art Museum in the 5th grade. I had call my father and tell me and he had to call the Art Director to come down and get us out.

Your turn. Can I "Interview You"?

Those were great, Susan!
Well, at least you had something to do while you were locked in the museum! Too funny.
I've always enjoyed the book of Esther. But to be able to 'feel' what was in Mary's heart and wonder what she was thinking, good choice! Makes me wonder too.
See now, those weren't so hard!

Now, if only you had grown up reading the fabulous From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, you would have loved the museum after hours :)!

I always hoped this very thing could happen to me!

Susan, you can interview me! I have so missed visiting you over the past couple of weeks. We did not have trouble with the ice however, we were headed up to Missouri to drop Jake back at Fort Leonard Wood and had slow going. We unexpectedly spent the night. How about y'all any trouble with the winter weather? I'm still catching up on the reading. Love you much and I pray God continues to bless you as you bless others.

Susan,

I left you a post below. I really enjoyed reading about you. Those were interesting questions. I found myself answering them for me.

Have a great day!

Great answers. The woman in the Bible sort of stumped me too. Have a wonderful week!

Susan Skitt said...

Thanks for sharing. I would love to travel in Europe too. And I like you, marvel at how Mary pondered so much, waiting and looking to her Lord and Savior.

Much love and thank you for your prayers,
Susan

I enjoyed this...nice twist to all the other things like it going around. Depends on what "bible days" right....some eras of those days would have been tough!

Barbara said...

Interesting to read some more about you Susan.

You can interview me if you like and if there is anything left to tell!!

I am already quaking though!! Please be kind and don't tax my brain too much.
