Busy February

It's been a most unusual February, with a family wedding the first weekend of February and a send-off to the military for nephew three the second weekend. I love family gatherings, but it is good to catch my breath this weekend. (And work at editing photos!) The family wedding was niece #4. She and Darius are still in college, so they worked hard to keep expenses down. I was honored that they had me take some of the wedding pictures.

You Are Romantic

While you are a bit on the quiet side, you're a great partner. You are supportive, devoted, and loyal.
You're very kind, gentle, and empathetic. You can't help but feel whatever others are feeling.

More than any other type, you honestly still believe in true love. You hold on to your ideals.
You are flexible. You find it easy to adapt to any situation.

Sixty!

I made it! This has been the least worrisome birthday since, oh, I don't know, turning thirteen. I actually feel like I have arrived. I've paid my dues (and my taxes), I've stayed the course, and now ... I'm one of the big kids!

But I really DO like Shiny Things!




You Are a Hand Knit Scarf



You are a creative and unique person. You like to make things yourself, and you're quite crafty.

You've got your own personal style going on. It's a bit offbeat, but it definitely works for you!



You live deliberately and carefully. You treasure your memories and one of a kind possessions.

You resist being part of some consumerist rat race. You know that shiny things don't make you happy.

2011 - What Kind of a Year Was it?

As we say good-bye to 2011, what kind of a year was it for you?

For me, it was what I consider a transition or prep year. A lot of ugly baggage was dropped, a lot of new ideas were adopted and put in to play. I believe 2011 was a wonderful stepping stone to a terrific 2012.

Wishing you all the best in 2012.

Creative . . . which is different than Artistic




You Are 78% Creative



You are beyond creative. You are a true artist - even if it's not in the conventional sense of the word.

You love creating for its own sake, and you find yourself quite inspired at times.


Winter Sunday mornings means quizzes




You Are the Folding



You quietly examine life's lessons and see multiple meanings in everything. You are philosophical.

You believe that the most important thing is to be true to yourself. Only you know your heart's real desires.



People often misunderstand you. You are more of an optimist than you seem.

You're proud of who you are. You're living life on your own terms, even if others don't agree.

LAST QUIZ FOR THE DAY




Woody Allen Should Direct the Movie of Your Life



Your life is quirky, offbeat, and filled with little neuroses.

You're always willing to step back and look at what's going on. You aren't afraid of a little analysis.



You take life too seriously and not seriously enough. You're still trying to figure yourself out.

You are smart, funny, touching, and definitely cynical. Your personal philosophy is as unique as you are.


I'm a Turkey




You Are a Turkey



You are relaxed, calm, and quite happy. You're content to go with the flow and make the best of every situation.

You prefer to be around others, both when working and while relaxing. You are very socially oriented.



You are your own worst critic, feeling ashamed if you're not perfect.

You are just in all your actions. You want to be seen as both honest and fair.


Color me This!

This isn't right on the personality, but spot on on the colors.




Your Colors Are Sweet



Your colors are soft and comforting baby blues, pinks, and purples.

You are a down to earth and kind person. You are happy to take care of others.



Your friends can count on you to be reliable and trustworthy. And you never let them down.

You are naturally kind and thoughtful. You truly like other people, and you give them the benefit of the doubt.


City Walk

okay, prepare to be inundated. It's a blogthings kind of morning!




You Are Genial and Polite



You are thoughtful and contemplative. You enjoy spending time alone with your thoughts.



You are generally confident and friendly with strangers. You are well mannered and sociable.



Money is fairly important to you. You aren't super greedy, but you enjoy spending money on yourself.



You enjoy the world around you, and you thrive on new environments. You can be easily surrounded by natural or man made beauty.


Tai Chi says the same thing




You Should Take Some Deep Breaths



Part of what's stressing you out right now is that there's too much going on at once. You hardly have room to breathe.

And to be honest, the idea of taking on a little project to de-stress yourself is even stressful.



So don't worry about doing much. Just take a few deep breaths. In fact, try it right now.

Doesn't that feel good? Repeat this as often as you need to. This is the first step to clearing your head and feeling better.

Geocaching

For years I have been interested in geocaching but did nothing about it. I enjoyed Elaine from Houston's posts on her adventures with her husband Kenny finding caches. Something piqued my interest recently. (I wish I could remember what specifically did, but oh well.) I downloaded the app for Droids to my smart phone. (I REALLY love my Droid). I went to the geocaching.com site, and tried to sign up. I found out I had already joined as a basic member five years ago so I got settled in.

The App brings everything together. You can search for close caches. Navigation takes you close, and then the compass takes you in. I am utterly AMAZED at the # of caches there are in any given area. Too funny.


Cemetaries are a favorite place to hide caches. The cemetary that we visit at least twice a year has a cache. Did not know that. I have visited spots I didn't know exist, even though I frequently drive by them.

Of course, I didn't REALLY need another hobby. But hey. Gotta keep this old mind young, eh?

Apple Red . . . hmm, I like that!




You Are Apple Red



You're never one to take life too seriously, and because of it, you're a ton of fun.

And although you have a great sense of humor, you are never superficial.

Deep and caring, you do like to get to the core of people - to understand them well.

However, any probing you do is light hearted and fun, sometimes causing people to misjudge you.

Solo. Hmm. That would be me.




You Are Content



You truly enjoy life, and you like to take time to savor it.

You are service-oriented and generous. You find meaning in giving back.



You have no desire to lead or follow. Anyone is welcome to join you on your journey for a while.

At your core, you are individualistic. You are most comfortable flying solo.

You May Be a Bit Histrionic...



Dramatic and over the top, you crave attention.

And you'll do anything it takes to get noticed.

You love to be seductive, even when it's inappropriate.

If you're ignored, you're easily hurt ... and act out even more!
