You have accomplished a difficult task and hear someone else taking the credit. How do you deal with the situation?

If you had to marry someone that you presently know unromantically, and spend the rest of your life as their spouse, who would you choose?

If you knew that in one year you would die suddenly, would you change anything about the way you are living now?

Well, that would depend on how I was thinking. Or not thinking. Because if I was thinking, then I would just wait it out, because that kind of thing tends to correct itself, and besides, you can’t do something “difficult” without someone else knowing, and that’s generally how it gets corrected. If I were not thinking, then I’d probably say something, and then it just wouldn’t work out as well.

I am declining to answer that one, based on the fact that such speculation is inherently disrespectful to my husband, since I’m married and all.

Sure. I’d spend more time traveling and more time with my family. Guess that means I should do that NOW, huh?

    Great answers.

    I’m reading right beside here that along the way you’ve lost yourself.

    I know exactly what you mean.

    I always hope it’s a sign that I took motherhood serious.

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
