From Danielle's blog:
We all leave our “footprint” on the world, in one way or another. We each, individually, do something or are someone that makes the world a little better just by being here. I created this weekly meme to get to know the blogging community I love just a bit better. To know what makes them tick, outside of books, that is. Each week I will post a question to be answered in the following week’s “A Bit of Me(Me)”. Check back each Saturday to get the info for next week’s post and link up with your current post right here.
This week's assignment: What are three adjectives which describe you?
Oh my...there are so many adjectives I can come up with and I can guarantee, my sons can come up with a lot more lol so I will not be asking them.  I did ask hubby and he mentioned one.  So I will be posting my 2 and his 1st word that came to mind.
From hubby...thank you!!!!

EMOTIONAL/PASSIONATE
I feel that these 2 words describe me best, they go hand in hand for my personality.
I am an emotional person all the time, but even more so right now due to some personal issues that I am presently dealing with.  I cry at the drop of a hat be it for something sad, a touching moment, a memory, something I see on TV, you name it.  But on the other side, I will defend people and things I believe in to the end and can have a temper if provoked when it comes to family and/or friends being hurt or disrespected.   I think these traits are part of my makeup because of situations I lived and witnessed growing up as a child.
COMPASSIONATE
This may go along with my hubby's adjective but I can easily empathize with others.   People have told me that I am a good listener and will confide in me knowing that I will never repeat anything that is said. Again, I think this comes from incidents that formed my personality while growing up.  It may also be why I chose the profession of nursing, which I sadly had to retire from due to my back problems.
O.K.  Your turn.  What adjectives describe you?

Those are really good traits...even the ones you sort of "put down," like emotional (and crying). Without those qualities, none of us could really experience things in this life.

And compassion...that's so lacking in many people. Consider yourself blessed.

Hope you have a good weekend, and thanks for visiting my blog.

I'm emotional too and I think it gets worse the older I get!

Ooh, I totally relate to your emotional/passionate one. That describes me to a tee. :)

I share these characteristics too. And after "talking" to you via our blogs, I can totally envision you just like this. Have a great weekend, gf!

I can identify with emotional. I cry when I am sad or when angry. I take everything to heart.

Worrier would be another for me.
Not sure about the third.

enjoy ur weekend!

Passion is a wonderful trait to have!

How sweet! I'm glad that he knows you so well - it makes life with a hubby so much easier!!
Those are all traits that you show daily with every blog that you visit & comment that you leave.

Lets hear it for the listeners! Love your selections, especially that your hubby picked caring. If I were going to pick for you that would have been at the top of my list, just from what I've read about you so far.

I think i can identify with all three. I know am definitely emotional. I cry for the slightest thing and my friends often tease me by saying that my bladder is located close to my eyes...lol
