The theme for Ten on Tuesday this week is 10 Words People Would Use to Describe You. I decided to go with nouns and I couldn’t believe how easy and fast this was.
1. Wife
2. Mother
3. Librarian
4. Knitter
5. Spinner
6. Photographer
7. Friend
8. Cook
9. Organizer
10. Writer
How about you? How would someone describe you?
Nora Said,
Fun!!
Katie K Said,
I like to see myself as a verb, personally.
deb Said,
Of course, I would have put “friend” up higher on the list!
Karen Said,
Today mine would be “tired”.
britt Said,
i would describe myself as quite, but other people take it to mean something else.
Doris Said,
Wife, mother, friend, knitter, listener, advisor, go to gal, dog-walker, mentor, home-maker (in the sense of making our house a home). Thanks for the excercise…it’s good to think of the things we are and Can do, rather than any negatives!
Carrie Said,
Pretty sure smartass would be high on my list…
Mary K. in Rockport Said,
I was always afraid someone would ask me that….
LittleWit Said,
Benevolent.
Or at least that’s how I would like people to describe me. What they may actually say is silly crazypants.
Teyani Said,
Nouns, eh? hmmmm…. probably Mother today.
I like your list!
Cynthia Said,
Gee Carole, I guess humble would be on my list for you; I think I could come up with 10 words to describe you that might include great, fun, considerate, compassionate, generous, honest, endearing (okay I may be mixing the verbs and nouns). As for myself hummmm…..
Hillary Said,
Funny, I started thinking about that list and had a hard time because I was thinking in term of verbs. Yours is a great list.
Sylvia Said,
Nouns for me — these have been used recently: Dingbat, genius, [pesky little] sister, cellist, knitter, farmer, mom, artisan, comrade, survivor.
Adjectives for you: compassionate, cheerful, determined, kind, conscientious, fun-loving, loyal, genuine, self-motivated, loving.
Beth Said,
I like #9 a lot – do you make house calls?
JessaLu Said,
‘smartass’ would definitely be on my list – as you can attest. ;o)
Karen Said,
I try to be an organizer, but it never lasts very long.
Stephanie Said,
Fun. I’ve been thinking of doing the ten on Tuesday thing and this one seems like a really good one. I guess I’ll have to check it out and find out more info.
Sarah Said,
Interesting exercise. I like your list.
Carla Said,
I think I might not like what I came up with. I’m not always very kind to myself, but it could be an interesting exercise in self-examination.
Sara Said,
Darn I forgot knitter, quilter, photographer and a few others – needed more than 10 this time…
Cookie Said,
You forgot (step) grandmother, cat slave, inspiration and reenactor for a start.
Lucia Said,
You know, I haven’t the slightest idea.
HB Said,
I need to post my list – I like using one word instead of going into a real long explanation – as I tend to do. Thanks for the ideas!
jill Said,
Great list Carol. I think I’ll come up with a list for my daily journal. Determined would make the top five – and maybe rejuvinated. Good words. Good exercise. Thanks.
Catie Said,
Hmm. Mother, Wife, Friend, Daughter, Knitter, Sister, Teacher, Patient (adjective, not noun) Disorganized, Fun
Helen Said,
Thanks! I’m off to put my list on my blog.
