Now add up the total number of points.
OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should “handle with care.” You’re seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don’t always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.
51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who’s quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.
41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who’s constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who’ll always cheer them up and help them out.
31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who’s extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over if that trust is ever broken.
21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.
UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions & who doesn’t want to get involved with anyone or anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don’t exist. Some people think you’re boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren’t.
I’m a 48
I got this in an e-mail from a friend. Kinda cool. Don’t know if Phil and Oprah really did this or not. Just glad to know I’m not psychotic or anything…*twitch* *twitch*

I was always proud of the fact that his wife was from my town….
When my daughter had to have arthroscopic knee surgery, our local hospital showed us a video of him having the same thing done just a few months before, by the same surgeons….
When his movie came out in 2002, my kids got it for me as a Christmas present…(they knew of my secret crush on him)…
When he looked at his wife, you could see the love in his eyes, the sheer joy on his face when he looked at his kids. He included them in every part of his life, no small feat.
He loved the Earth, and all the creatures living here, he taught our children to respect all living things for their unique beauty. Instead of using his wealth and fame for big houses, cars, drugs and ho’s, he used it to make the Earth a better place.
I admire him immensely, and I am sick for his wife, his children, their families, his friends, and all of us who appreciated what he did, everyday, every single day, to be a good steward of this planet, to get people to care a bit more about the other creatures who share the earth with us.
And as a woman who has lived through the shock of the sudden death of her other half, I ache today, thinking of the long valley his wife and children have before them.
To Steve, cheers for a life lived well and full. Thanks for all the times you made me smile….crikey!

Lookit what I found in my mailbox!
Hey Frankie! I wanted to show you my cool new hat. Such artistry, such folding skills, and a great eye for where to have the colors from the ads show up! I’m truly amazed! Thanks for making this for me and letting your mom send it! such a scamp she is!!
I wonder where I could wear my new hat? Bonnie says it goes with everything…..why, I think she’s right!
Should I wear it with the cool feather like pookie-up thingies facing forwards, it’s a more serious look, I think, but my glasses help hold it up….
I think I like it better placed jauntily to the side! Like Errol Flynn in Robin Hood!
I’m SO HAPPY with my new chapeau! I’m gonna wear it while I come visit you all!
Did everybody have a good weekend? Rick and I had a nice time driving through the spring countryside inspecting properties. We were waaay out in little podunks here and there. Stayed at Seven Feathers Casino on Thursday night, and I only got to play the slots for about 10 minutes, but I was up 5 bucks when I cashed out, so no complaints. Had one nice lady give me a bunch of Iris tubers and another old guy gave me some of his homemade quince jam. Rick just loves getting out and meeting folks and looking over properties. He cracks me up, cause now we’ll be driving up to a property and he’s “Oh boy, look at that roof!”, he’s noticing everything, and he’s making a great secretary.
Went and saw “V for Venetta” this weekend. Pretty good movie, not “Matrix” good, but a nice little piece of entertainment. I also took the time to watch “Junebug”, wonderful little movie. Two movies in one weekend! I can’t remember when the last time was that I was that lazy! Woot!
Well, today I go north to Sweet Home and Lebanon, both nice little towns up in the Cascade foothills. So I gotta get with it.
Think I should wear my hat?

Where ever you are~
What ever you are doing~
We hope you are well.
We hope you are happy…
We hope you remember us,
~Because~
We will never forget you
Do we say “Happy Birthday!”?
It’s not really happy, you know.
Do we throw kisses towards the sky?
How do we mark today?
How do we make it special, not sad?
So many things we aren’t sure of~
One thing we know~
~Today, you would be Fifty~
We would have had a party……
Turning 50 is a big deal!
~Older than Dirt~
I wonder how you would look at 50
How grey would your hair be?
How many new wrinkles would you carry?
What new hobbies would you have started?
What car would you be driving?….
Where would you be volunteering?
We’ll never know.
Some things I do know -
You were a good man
You were a special presence
You were a warm heart,
You were loved.
And wherever you are,
Whatever you’re doing,
Take a moment and come see us today
Spend a moment of your “Special Day”
With me
With Kristy
With Bobby
It’s your Birthday, Bobbers
and we remember you with love

Ahh, the weekend!
My mom and step-dad are here so we can do a birthday weekend. It’s my sister-in-law, my daughter, my mom and my birthdays all in a couple of weeks, so we usually just have one nice dinner when we all try to get together. It used to be Bob’s birthday, too, but, well, I usually light a candle for him. He would be 50 this year……..
It’s also one of my sister’s birthdays, but she’s on my dad’s side, so she’s not in this big celebration we have. Oh, and now I have one of Rick’s sisters birthday, too! Can you believe his baby sister and I were born on the same day? She’s 3 years older than me, but we’re both born on March 12. I’m gonna be the big 4-3 this year! Woot! That’s the percent body fat I am! So I think it’s very age appropriate!
I’ve been tagged by at least 4 different people to talk about my perfect lover, so avert your eyes! Mayday! Mayday!
I am one of those people that think it is very important that you educate yourself in the art of sex. Doing the Hokey-Pokey keeps the generations coming along, but if you are doing it for pleasure…….then take the time to learn some stuff to make it enjoyable and fresh!
When my daughter turned 18, one of the gifts I gave her was the book “The Joy of Sex”. When my son turned 18, I didn’t give it to him, because he was in a serious relationship with his girlie (still is), and I didn’t want to embarass her, or make her think I was any freakier than she already did. What is so funny about this is, a few months ago, I asked him privately if he would like me to get the book for him, as I feel it would help him, and he looked me right in the eye and said “We’ve already bought it…..” Now, THAT’S my boy! Making sure he knows what he’s doing! *chest swells with pride* A good lover goes a long way in a relationship!
So, now that you know I’m serious about this stuff, here goes………..
1. A good lover must be helpful around the house. Couch potatoes need not apply. I think about that episode of “Everybody Loves Raymond”, where he’s doing some chores, and his wife tells him, “You are turning me on so much right now!” LOL! It’s true!
2. A perfect lover shares secrets with me. Rick has this little smile I only see when he’s looking at me. No one else gets that smile. God, I love that! I always think of that song “Nobody knows it, but you’ve got a secret smile, and you use it only for me”. I just want to eat him up when I see that smile.
3. A perfect lover is clean and smells good.
4. A perfect lover is not afraid to try new things. I remember when I first started seeing Rick, I asked him if he was “trainable” and he looked me right in the eye and said “absolutely!” He had no idea at the time how important that response was………heh, heh, heh………
5. Nice sized equipment is most certainly a plus, but as the old saying goes “Its not the size of the ocean, its the motion of the ocean”. My first husband was not a porn star by any measure, but he took the time to learn me, and to know what made me get to a happy place. Now, Rick is like a Christmas present! Woot! He’s very interested in making me happy, lets me be in charge, lets me know what he likes,…….it was so fun getting to know him, showing him some things, letting him experiment on me…….I think sometimes sex gets old when you’re with the same person for many years, you’ve gotta work to keep it fresh, gotta try new things. I’ve had fun watching Ricks eyes get big when I try something out on him! God he’s fun……….where is he?! BRB…….
6. A perfect lover tells you how great you look and how sexy you are, breathes that wonderful hot breath on your neck, acts like you are a delicious dessert and he can’t get enough…….
7. A perfect lover has got your back. He’s in your corner. I have no doubt I am number one in my lovers heart, and that is so hot!
8. A perfect lover has to know how to kiss well. Not just smacking and forcing a tongue down your throat, but how to nuzzle, how to tease, how to lick, how to…….dammit! BRB………..
9. Whew! I’m getting tired! A perfect lover know how important fore-play is to a woman……the snuggling, cuddling, laughing, touching…….crap!
10. A perfect lover knows how important after-play is, too. The lying there, all sweaty and spent, limp in his arms, telling him how fabulous he is and how much I love him, his sweet little kisses……..yeah……that’s wonderful…….
OK, I gotta go take a shower now…..Have a great weekend!

Blech…….
Countdown to the 11th…….
Getting audited by the I.R.S…………
My daughter got in a wreck last night…….nobody injured, Thank the Universe……….and Wow! am I ever thankful I coughed up the $800.00 for insurance on that car, even if there is no collision coverage, can you imagine?! That car is in my name, and she’s living in my house! I could have lost everything……..scares the crap out of me!
Just, Blech!
At least the sun is shining through the window, and I saw a Robin! Spring is coming! Woot!
For the Blogring, I’m to tell you about a moment in time I wish I could hold onto a bit longer.
One of course, would be the evening Bob died, I wish I could be there again, having dinner with him, hearing him talk about the sunshine that he stood in out in front of the office that day. But I’m depressed enough, so I’m gonna think about a happier one….
Hiking in Yosemite with Rick, past all the beautiful rivers, waterfalls, the flowers blooming in the trees, we hiked all the way up to the top of Vernal Falls, and there we put a blanket down in the sunshine, and lay there in each others arms and watched the spectacular show the river was putting on. I love his low, growly voice, and I can hear him as we lay there, telling me how happy he is, and how much he loves me, and how wonderful I am. Ha! Yeah, I need to remember that right now…..
I think about this wonderful time often, and wish I could take a nap up there, right now!
I’m comparing the sparkle in my wedding ring to the diamonds in the water! Me and my Rickypoo!
Yeah, that was a wonderful afternoon, a wonderful trip, a wonderful man…..
