Cotton-Pickin’ Days

And still a slinging mama. Here I am using my “home” sling which is a TaylorMade waffle weave stretch cotton sling.

Your Mind is Orange

Of all the mind types, yours is the quickest. You are usually thinking a mile a minute, and you could be thinking about anything at all. Your thoughts are often scattered and random - but they’re also a lot of fun! You tend to spend a lot of time thinking about esoteric subjects, the meaning of life, and pop culture.

To satisfy my own curiosity…. I’ve read more of these books than I expected (~37) but can’t really recall some, esp. the ones I read for school.

What we have here is the top 106 books most often marked as “unread” by LibraryThing’s users (my LibraryThing catalog). As in, they sit on the shelf to make you look smart or well-rounded. Bold the ones you’ve read, underline italicize the ones you read for school, italicize underline the ones you started but didn’t finish. Here’s the twist: add (*) beside the ones you liked and would (or did) read again or recommend. (Had to change the original directions because I did it incorrectly!)

Speedtest

The only official typing test I’ve ever taken was for my job in the pharmacy where we had to type prescription labels at lightning speed. Now everything is computerized so it probably doesn’t matter anymore.

Around 1.4% of the pages on your website contain cussing.This is 84% LESS than other websites who took this test.

Just to warn you: These results do not reflect the actual amount of cussing I do on IM or in person.

Marv, Stephen, and I are big time homebodies. I’m sure we could stay in for at least a week before feeling the itch to go out. Nice to know that based on the supplies we have in our home, we could actually stay in for about 56 days!

After taking the learning style inventory test last week, KathyF suggested I try the Enneagram Personality Type Indicator test.

Here are my results:

I’m most like Type 3: The Motivator. The adaptable, success-oriented type. Score 8.

I’m least like Type 6: The Skeptic. The committed, security-oriented type. Score -6.

Here are some tips for you on how to get along with me, a type 3 motivator:

• Leave me alone when I am doing my work.
• Give me honest, but not unduly critical or judgmental, feedback.
• Help me keep my environment harmonious and peaceful.
• Don’t burden me with negative emotions.
• Tell me you like being around me.
• Tell me when you’re proud of me or my accomplishments.

Ironically, this was one of my favorite t-shirts in grad school.
