Getting to Know You: Fill in the Blanks

Hi, I'm Deb from Red Shoe Ramblings, and I'm going to be the Wednesday guest blogger for this first month of Getting to Know You posts. These posts will each be a brief set of questions (or questions-like statements!) - something different every week, but each set will be designed to help us all get to know each other a little better.

If you have a blog, post the questions and your answers there and then post the link in the comments here so we can all go take a look. If you don't have a blog of your own, you can post your answers in the comments section of this post.

So let's get started!

Fill in the Blanks

Fill in the blanks to each of these statements - it's as simple as that! These don't have to be one-word responses. Use as few or as many words as you need to fill each blank, in order to tell your story.

1. I have never wanted to _______________ ; but I've always thought I might like to _____________ .

2. When I was ____________ years old, I believed ________________ .

3. If I was my own best friend, what I would enjoy the most about spending time with Me would be ________________; while what I'd find the most irritating would be _____________ .

4. If the story of my life up to this point was being published tomorrow, it would be titled "_____________" and it would be dedicated to ______________ .

5. When my time on Earth is over, and the people who loved me are remembering me, it would please me if they said _________________ .

I'm really looking forward to reading all the responses! And I hope you'll all stop back tomorrow for Picture Day.

Love,

DebR

Darn...I already blogged today--and not with these. Will have to revisit them maybe? Hmm...

--I have never wanted to bungee-jump, but have always thought I might like to sky-dive.
--When I was six years old, I believed that you had to die in the shape of a cross or you wouldn't get into heaven (twelve years of Catholic school, what can I say?).
--I would enjoy how good a listener I am...I may get irritated with my refusal to reciprocate by opening up as well.
--"GROW" dedicated to my Family...
--...that I always lived my life on my own terms and left it a little bit better by loving them, spending time with them, and writing it all down so they could read it over and over...

*This was just my knee-jerk response, I may revise them a bit with a little time...a very thoughtful prompt!*
