We just had a very fun, but odd, Enrichment! A new lady in our ward is a handwriting analyst who has worked for the FBI and CIA but mostly for companies who hire her to analyze potential employees. She analyzed the writing of all 30 women who showed up Wednesday night, and I can't believe how accurate it all was! It was weird! This is what she said about me:
I have very strong willpower, but it comes in short-lived bursts! (So painfully true! I can't ever seem to stick to anything if it's related to chocolate or exercise! How many times do I have to set those same goals?!)
Along with the willpower, I am stubborn on things I believe and don't back down. (Never!)
I keep my emotions close and don't usually express everything I feel. (Enough said.)
I have a tight group of friends who know who they are. I am a bear if someone bugs one of those friends! (I like that! It makes me sound pretty tough!)
I am a creative person whose creativity is currently squashed! I'm not currently progressing toward my goals. (Sounds like I should start on my book again! I've been on page 80 since October!)
I am a person who sees my relationships for how they are, but always with expectations for more. She said I probably say things about my marriage like, "We have a great marriage and if we could just change this one thing, it would be perfect." (So true! There will always be that "one more thing"!)
I am a person who observes carefully and processes things I see. She said I was like Columbo, but I would prefer to be like Nancy Drew. She dresses much better! She said at church, instead of listening to the lesson, I am likely to notice the look on X's face and wonder if it has something to do with the conversation I saw her having earlier with Y,.....etc." (She made me sound like a snoopy eavesdropper---just call me Gladys Kravitz! I suppose it's true, but hopefully not in a bad way. I'm just always worried about everyone being happy!)
I am normally very optimistic but not so much lately (Hmmm. Could that be because my husband has been self-employed now for 9 months since there are no jobs to even apply for?)
I like to take small risks and test limits. (This one I wasn't so sure about because, mostly I'm a big chicken, but when I asked my friends, they said I am risky about expressing my opinions in groups. I guess they've heard too many of my political rants! What can I say? It was an ugly election year!)
Anyway, that's my handwriting in a nutshell. We only wrote 2 sentences, and she said with that much writing she could tell us about ourselves for at least a half hour! It was fun but a little creepy. I have no idea how you can tell that much from handwriting! Needless to say, I called to thank her instead of sending a thank-you note! I didn't want her analyzing me even more! Think what she could do with a whole card-full of sentiments!

wow, it is a good thing we are so opposite! I would hate to have somone say those things about me! ;)
are you sure you didn't submit MY handwriting instead! you should have made mom go with you....and karen....and susan....now that would have been interesting! why don't you ask her to do a family one for us this friday!
Okay, this lady sounds awesome! Now I know more about you. I'm looking at my handwriting and wondering if her analysis would change from note to note. I'm always writing things differently, whether or not I'm in a hurry.
Maybe ask her if that makes a difference?
She said that your writing will change slightly from day to day according to how you're feeling. For instance, she told me that my handwriting didn't look as optimistic as it had the last time she'd seen it, which had been about 4 weeks earlier. She also said that although there are individual characteristics in handwriting, you look at the writing as a whole picture, so even if some things changed, it might not affect the overall picture much. She was fascinating!
