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?
