Myers-Briggs/Keirsey Temperment Test
I've taken the Myers-Briggs personality test several times in my life. I took it in High School health class. I took it in a college class. I've taken it for a few jobs. The results always seem to turn out the same way. INFP. In High School I was an ENFP, but since college I have been an INFP. Here are so highlights about my personality type!
I love Weekends!
I picked up the platter that I painted last Friday! I love it! I love the red! It matches the kitchen so well. The dragon fly came out pretty well also. Does it look familiar? Yes, it is from a Cricut cartridge. I cut out a piece of contact paper in the shape of the dragon fly. I ever so carefully put in on the platter and then painted around it. When it was dry I pulled it off! Easy! I'm sure I'll use that technique again!
Michael and I went to a BBQ with my work people. It was pretty fun! We didn't stay to long because we had other plans that afternoon. Ben, the guy with the orange shirt managed to beat me at cornhole. It looks like an easy game, but its actually harder than it looks.
Michael and I headed down to Lexington for a Lexington Legends baseball game. Minor league games are so much more fun than the majors. First off, the tickers are very reasonable. The food prices are cheaper and the fans are a lot less rude and annoying. Except this time a group of about 6 Boy Scouts were throwing a baseball around right in front of us. We asked them to move. So one stayed in front of us and the other 5 moved behind us. So, they were throwing the ball above our heads as we sat on our picnic blanket. I told Michael that I was going to keep their ball if it hit me one more time. I tried to catch the security people's attention, but they were too busy talking on their cellphones. It landed on our blanket. Michael very politely asked them to move someplace else to play. They talked back to Michael. First off, you are Boy Scouts,You are suppose to be polite. Second, I would not mess with a man who is 6 feet 3 inches tall. Who knows where their leaders were. Oh well.Anyway the man above was juggling running chainsaws while balancing on a skateboard on a tube. I'm pretty sure his name was Crazy Carl. They have a weird sense of what is entertaining in Kentucky!

Getting Drenched!
The end of summer carnival! I love it! The kiddos get to dunk their counselors, eat GOBS of cotton candy, popcorn, and snow cones! They got to bounce,jump, and climb all they want! What a fabulous day!
Like I said in the post before painting pottery has become my new hobby! I made painted this a couple of weeks ago when I went with one of the summer camps to You're Fired! in Oxford! It was one of the best field trips of the summer! The kids loved it! The counselors loved it! The staff at You're Fired! is amazing! I wish that I lived closer to Oxford, I would go all the time! The above sign reminds me to create and not worrry about all the "stuff" that can take away from that drive to be creative!
Here is what I'm doing tomorrow!
1. Picking up my serving tray that I painted last week at the pottery shop!
2. Going to a BBQ at the home of the boss! :D
3. Drive to Lexington and to see THE TIME TRAVELER'S WIFE
4. Go to a baseball game
5. Watch fireworks after the baseball game!
This is an inspiraton jar that I put together for a new friend. It was full of scripture, quotes, and journaling prompts! I made a cute little gift bag for her. I put in bath salts, candles, and gum. Everything was very matchy matchy! I love making gifts!
I have totally found my new hobby! Painting pottery. This is a mug that I did last week. I know it's kinda ugly! But I love it! I don't love the mustard color, but I love that I painted it. I am planning on going back on Friday to do some dessert plates. I found out that I can make templates out of contact paper that I cut on my Cricut! Yay fun! I think I might do some cool birds or something. We shall see!
I am loving the East of Eden Mini Series! Been watching that while I've been sick at home. Man Jane Seymour can play one evil woman. Whoa! So good!
Walgreens is ripping you off!
I have a sinus infection and bronchitis again. Yup again! This is the 3rd time this year. Anyway, last week I heard on the radio about the price inflation at Walgreens. The doctor prescribed me the exact course of drugs as the last sinus infection! Last time I paid $120.00 at Walgreens. That is WITH insurance. Today, I went to Sam's club to pick up the pills. The very nice pharm tech said, "That will be $80." I thought to myself that's not bad. Then I said, "$80 is a big differece from the $120 that Walgreen charged." She laughed and said, "Not $80, $8." $8??!!! $8??! Are you kidding me? How can Walgreens get away with charging so much for our prescriptions? Everyone need to know! Tell all your friends. Tell your parents. Tell your Grandparents. So I will be sending all future prescriptions to Sam's club.
