Have you done Gretchen Rubin's Four Tendencies quiz yet? See here.

I wasn't at all surprised to find I am a Questioner.

Which are you?

I'm Rebel? That is so not me, yet I think I answered accurately.

Your floral arrangement looks so good. Would never think to add to a purchased arrangement.

Neither would I - and adding the lights is so pretty! I use lights a lot but never like this 👍
I liked Rubin's first book or two but haven't read the more recent, so no, no quizzes!

You can do it free online. I don't think I'll buy the book though I liked her first one - it led me to do this blog.

It's about knowing yourself better Rubin says. (I do always take these things with a big pinch of salt....but find them interesting just the same.)

Ha! Well I did the quiz and feel fairly sure I'd have been an obliger until it asked me to put in my email address!

I’m with lucille...must be a rebel...no obliging with an email address.....:-) freda...one of the things i especially love about your flower arrangments is your use of interesting jugs and pitchers instead of vases...i have this image in my mind of a rather large cupboard, somewhere in your home..full of jugs! Have not seen this beauty before..

I put in a fake email address. Maybe there's a touch of rebel in me after all.

Gorgeous arrangement. I love to see what you do with your bits and bobs. Always elegant and eye-pleasing, even when simply items are involved.

As for the quiz, I didn't put in any email address and just hit enter, but still got an answer---no surprise: Rebel. Seems like a lot of your readers fall into this category. Or is it, perhaps, the general age of the readers? I might have answered some of the questions differently if it was during my child raising years when, frankly, family came first. But I am definitely a rebel in my old age. :)

Definitely a rebel - I didn't do the quiz!
I love the warmth of your arrangement Freda.

Rebel, no surprise there! I liked her first two books, which I feel have had quite a positive influence on my life. However, being a rebel l have never actually managed to follow through with changing habits and sticking to routines!
I do love that flower arrangement, Freda. Adding the beech leaves elevated it to another level of beauty ! Penny L

Questioner - I am now questioning why I just did that test!
