Interview questions, courtesy of the smart, funny, beautiful Michelle:

1. If you could have any job in the world what would it be and why? I would really love to teach math at the community college level. I love algebra and calculus. Yes, I am weird. However, I do have a plan for opening my own plumbing business.
   
   
2. If your house were on fire and you could only take three things with you - you have to be able to carry them all - what would they be and why? (Pets are safe already). Hmm.
   • My painting over the fireplace- I bought it at an auction a few years ago. It’s by a local artist, I bought it because it spoke to me.
   • My striped afghan. My uncle’s mother knitted 4 afghans for me. I’ve had them for years now. I’d miss them, but the striped one is my favorite.
   • My purse. Can’t not have that.
   
   
   
3. What prompted you to start a blog, how long have you been blogging and what has made you stay with it? I started a blog as a means of keeping in touch with people. I’ve been doing it for about 3 years now. I stay with it mostly because I’ve made several friends through blogging. Someday I hope to meet the NE crew. For right now, I just know Stewie in real life.
   
   
4. You have a horse and cats - you have to give one or the other up - which goes and which stays? Well, actually, I don’t have a horse. But even if I did, it’s likely the horse would go. The cats are there every day, and I know that I can ride someone else’s horse. Plus, I can sell a horse. No one would pay for my cats.
   
   
5. Best book you have ever read? This is a tough question. I love books! I’m going to say Trustee from the Toolroom by Nevil Shute. It’s the first Shute book I’d ever read. It’s a book where everything happens for a reason, and everything works out. Reminds me to take things as they come.
