    What your bed says about you?

    Taken from The Gal's, here are my answers. mrgreen


    What Your Bed Says About You



    Outward appearances are very important to you. You do your best to look good and have an attractive home.



    You try to be an organized person, but you often fall behind. Certain parts of your life tend to fall into chaos.



    You are very high maintenance. You like everything a certain way, and you're grumpy if things aren't the way you like them.



    In relationships, you tend to kick back and let the other person be in charge.



    You tend to be a dreamy, head in the clouds type of person. You think in terms of possibilities.



    You are a total homebody. You are happiest when you're at home.

    Unconscious muttering

    From Lunalina's, here's this week unconscious mutterings:

    1. Cry :: out
    2. Stretch :: marks
    3. Efficient :: me
    4. Brunch :: sunday
    5. Afro :: hair
    6. Preheat :: convenient food
    7. Delicious :: chocolate
    8. Global warming :: scary
    9. Actions :: saving the world
    10. Ride :: home

    Free association is described as a "psychonanalytic procedure in which a person is encouraged to give free rein to his or her thoughts and feelings, verbalizing whatever comes into the mind without monitoring its content." Over time, this technique is supposed to help bring forth repressed thoughts and feelings that the person can then work through to gain a better sense of self.

    That's an admirable goal, but for the purposes of this excercise, we're just hoping to have a little fun with the technique. Each week I'll post ten words to which you can respond to with the first thing that comes to mind.

    "Rules are, there are no rules." There are no right or wrong answers. Don't limit yourself to one word responses; just say everything that pops into your head. AND you don't have to have your words up on Sunday. Take all week if you want!

    Had my first driver's lesson tonight and other things...

    I'm posting and running. This evening TTF gave me my first driver's lesson. I drove around for over 30 minutes, it was fun, instructive and easier than I thought and I wasn't scared.

    I'm really happy and thrilled!!! It was something that we'll be doing again. ::big grin::

    Guys, keep Funsize and her family in your thoughts and prayers, she lost her baby boy Colin at 33 weeks  and 4 days of gestation. They need all the love, prayers and thoughts you guys can give.Follow the link and read her story. 

    I've been better at reading and visiting your blogs! I will be back on track soon. Oh and by the way, classes are going to be starting on september 2nd. That time, it shouldn't be delayed. Yipee!

    Guess what I'm doing tomorrow morning?

    I'm going for my driver's license, it's my learner's license but nonetheless a permit to drive. I'm a little bit stressed but I'm always a worrier so it's not a big shock that I would feel anxiety. I'm sick with a bad cold, that stinks but last week The Lawyer and her family were sick with it and I stayed with them and caught it. I'm feeling terrible but with the help of decongestant, I guess I'll survive. It could be worse. ;)

    The rest is well, I've been feeling quite detached from this blog. I can't really explain it, maybe it's something that happens to every blogger, maybe it's just be, what do I know?

    So I'm enjoying my Neo Citran and will soon get my butt to bed so I can rest and be in shape for tomorrow. I'm leaving at 7h30. I'll let you know If I get the licence tomorrow. Think and pray for me?
