bloggerview with jolene
Here's a personal look at the real rebecca marie, as interviewed by Jolene Lim.
1) Who has impacted your life the greatest in the past year, and how?
In the past year, the biggest influence on my life has been, with out a doubt, my children. I have miiiiissed them and they have inspired me to make major life changes that will enable me to stay home with them. And that’s why I took them to daycare today. Because I need a freaking break from the monkeys. No, seriously, I can’t wait to be a full time mommy again. I just knew I couldn’t eliminate half of their toys with them watching.
2) What did you do on the day before your wedding, what were you thinking and feeling?
Uhm, honestly? SHOCK. Scott and I were (drum roll please) living together before we got married. I freaked one day, couldn’t believe the life of sin I was living (who am I kidding, we are all living in sin, but you know what I mean), and I left work mid-day to break up and move out. I remember where I was on the road (harmony road, headed west, between 82nd and railroad) when I prayed out loud “Lord please bless me with this man…” He proposed the next day, and we got married three days later, as soon as we legally could. Our tenth anniversary is six days away, not too shabby.
3) If you could change just 1 law in your country, what would it be and why?
Wow, really? Uhm, uhm, uhm, I’m trying not to think about my answers, and just SAY what I think. Gosh. I don’t know if this is a “law” thing or not, but I’d like to see more support of mothers. Like, the forced maternity leave in some countries. Women in this country leave two week old babies with sitters for financial (or not) reasons. How many of them would stay home with financial support? I dunno.
4) Share with us 5 of your bad habits (I know you have more!).
I’m an impulse buyer.
I am the target audience for reality (er, unscripted) television.
I have a blurting problem.
I pick at my hangnails until the bleed.
I rarely pick up after myself.
5) Tell us about your most embarrassing moment.
Seriously? I don’t get embarrassed. I mean, I actually can NOT think of one. Any one who knows me, and thinks you know of one, feel free to remind me!
End of interview.
Now, per jolene's instructions, I am offering to interview the first five people responding to this post. The rules are as follows:
1. Leave me a comment saying 'interview me please'.
2. I will respond by asking you five questions here on my blog (not the same questions you see here).
3. You will update your blog/site with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
So, who is up for an interview by rebecca marie?
arrivederci, rebecca marie
