#102 - (the one that didn't make the list)

Truth be told, I think a lot of things on my list of 101 Goals in 1001 Days are pretty conservative. I wimped out and didn't put as many of the "reach for the stars" goals that other people have listed.

One of the things that crossed my mind was to add the goal of being featured on someone else's blog, either as a guest post or by being interviewed. Other bloggers link to certain posts of mine quite often, which is humbling enough as it is, but I thought it was too big of a dream to publicly announce that I hoped to be featured on another blog. I further talked myself out of it by justifying that if someone did ask me, it would just be to fulfill the "check mark" on my goal list. I wanted to be invited to write a post or be interviewed on a blog because someone truly values my input. (I'm picky that way...)

Well! It was quite ironic that Maria at Thrifty Ways and Ideas emailed me with some questions about scrapbooking and asked if she could put the "interview" on her blog! What's even better is that, instead of reading the questions first and responding to the email later, I just hit "reply" and went through the questions one at a time before reading the email in its entirety. I didn't see the line about adding the answers to her blog until later, so my answers aren't as pre-planned as they might have been if I knew it was an interview in the first place.

If you'd like to see my interview on her blog, head on over and check it out. As cheap frugal as I am, I think my answers ended up fitting in really well with her thrifty blog theme!
