Answers to my Personal Interview

Amber said...
Here are five questions for you:
1. What is your proudest life moment and why? (Feel free to choose a future event if you are up to creative dreaming.)
I am holding hands with my husband walking through a black tunnel into a bright white light - you can only see our silhouettes from behind. My proudest moment is actually making it through this entire life trial being happily and joyfully married to my husband because we both had to work so hard at it! It's an accomplishment I feared we would not reach on too many occassions!
2. If you could have a personal interview with any American political figure, who would you choose and what would you ask them?
Benjamin Franklin finally tops Abe Lincoln... Tell me about life in America as you see it, and where do you see it going?
3. If you had access to a time machine, how would you use it?
Sparingly....very cautiously. I'm generally pretty happy with how life is. I'd probably only use it to go back to certain points in my life where I know I should have done differently - only 3 issues that I can think of right now. (one involving my best friend in 9th grade - not letting the boyfriend take precedence, one with my fiance' helping him to be more comfortable and accepting of the different aspects of the girl he was marrying, and in general being more consistant in implementing Gospel teaching with my children)
4. Congratulations, you won the lottery! Which lottery did you win, how much did you win (after taxes), and what will you do with your winnings?
I have won a net of $863,599.32. (Uhhh, NOT the Canadian one!) Pay 10% to the Lord, 10% to myself, banish debt, portion out gifts to family members, portion it for extraneous good works and donations, provide educational funds for our children (pending they meet certain qualifications...like grades!), travel, shop, buy toys, finish my own education, teach part time, require my hubby keep up some kind of flexible employment until we reach "retirement" age - and then serve many missions! That would probably be dual-fold with the traveling. And the above mentioned are not in the correct order except the first 3 items - you can have fun choosing which order they ought to belong in.
5. If you were a character in a television show, who would you be and why?
I am feeling Lily Tomlin's character of Edith Ann because she's a big little girl in a big big chair in a big big world who just speaks her mind and is silly and dorky and cute and slurpy.
These are NOT easy questions to answer!
