Jeremy's brother came down this weekend and he was talking about personality types. He was talking about different letters being different personalities. I can't remember what exactly each one meant but I was thinking about it and random things that I do that maybe you do that maybe you don't know about me (if that makes sense)for example... I am obsessed with list making I love making lists I am a sucker for the free little notebooks that come in the mail or are given away, I have little note books all over the house with lists of grocery's, finances, clothes the kids have and need, what needs to be done for the day, fun activities to do with the kids, books I want to read, food I would like to make someday, goals and so on. The funny thing about it is that if I don't get everything accomplished on my list it's not a big deal I just add it to the next list I make.
Another thing they were talking about is leadership and spotlight, I take the leadership position if nobody will step up and take it, if somebody does than I will sit back and let them have it. Like when I was in school when there was a group project I would usually lead if nobody took that position but I don't like to be the one that presents in front of people, or give talks or be on stage I wouldn't mind directing the play but I wouldn't want to be the actress on the stage. I am not a good public speaker and I am a horrible teacher in front of my peers. I can teach primary but beyond that I am horrible.
I can be indecisive if it comes to just me and my family but for example when there is a large group and something that needs to planned and everyone is sitting around ho humming I make a decision then make sure everyone is okay with it and then do it.
So what are you like passive, a thinker, leader, an actor, list maker and so on?

If you are familiar with the color code at all-I am a red, with some blue and white and absolutely no yellow. What that means is that I am drawn to and motivated by accomplishment, relationships, peace but not at all fun. Pretty sad, huh? When I first got married and Kevin wanted to do something spontaneous it would drive me up the wall, but I am learning to adapt and I think I have probably gained a little yellow, but not enough to outway the planner, thinker, leader part of me. I consider a day well spent when I have checked almost everything off my list. The only way I can consider an amusement outing well spent is if I learned something, my kids learned something or I got something done on the ride over there. This is why, don't tell my husband, but I hate going to the movies-what a waste of time and money (yet, he loves them and we go monthly).
I am the exact same with list! I make lists all the time but don't always get to check things off. It sure makes me feel good when I can check something off though:0)
