What?!?!

You Are 30% Left Brained, 70% Right Brained


The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning.Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others.

If you’re left brained, you are likely good at math and logic.

Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet.The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility.

Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way.

If you’re right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art.

Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.

Are You Right or Left Brained?

There are a couple of bloggers out there that have done this so I thought I’d give it a try (cause I’m a leader; not a follower…you know).  I was blown away by the results.  I’m not a artsy person what. so. ever!  I do enjoy sports, but not so sure about that philosophy and dreaming thing. 

Hmmmmm, I’ll have to day-dream about this one……

Just Say Hello

March 28, 2007

I loved this entry in the Simple Acts of Faith book I have.  Wanted to share it:

“More than anything, Sam wanted to become the president of the university’s student body. He learned early on that the secret to campus leadership required the simplest act:  Speak to those coming down the sidewalk before they speak to you.

Same did it all the time.  Whether he was carrying books, papers, or merely taking a stroll, he would keep one eye on the person coming toward him.  If he knew the person’s name, he would call it out.  If not, he’d still speak to them.  Before long, he knew more students than anyone in the university, and many recognized him and considered him a friend.  He not only became president of the student body but president of the senior men’s honor society, an officer in his fraternity, and president of the senior class.

An article in his fraternity newspaper described, ‘Sam is one of those rare people who knows every janitor by name, passes plates in church, and loves to join organizations.’

Indeed, his secret weapon was simply being friendly, and it’s one that carried Sam Walton far, if not to the top of the business world.”

Candy Corn Vine

WFMW

 I’m not a hard-core gardener.  I mostly just love digging and trying to arrange God’s wonderful creations.  The boys are ALWAYS trying to help me in some sort or manner so I absolutely HAD to come up with something that’s “their’s”, so I can do my own damage. 

I came across a plant that I’d not heard much about called, The Candy Corn Vine.  It’s absolutely beautiful and you can hardly go wrong with this thing.  The hummingbirds LOVE it.  It can grown indoors or outdoors.  (It does like shade if it’s outside)  Because it’s a vine, it’s constantly growing and adding flowers so it keeps the attention of my youngest and makes my oldest feel like he can do anything!

 Here’s a pic:
