    you have gorgeous handwriting!!
    so i’m bummed i missed the handwriting thing. although mines pretty embarrassingly bad (according to one of high school teachers who made me write on the chalkboard to demonstrate to the whole class how bad my handwriting was- that didn’t scar me or anything)
    1. peaceful
    2. singing or writing
    3. quac & chips (can we make that one)
    4. I try it’s never consistently the same day though
    5. Okay so I’m stealing this from my fav. Lindsey Kane song “What were you thinking?” The question is “What were you thinking when you created the men who would crucify you?”

    loved this post tam!

    my handwriting definitely falls more on the mandy side than the tam side. sheesh. i wish i could write so beautifully. heck, i’d settle for legibly.

    and honestly? writing makes my hand hurt. i think i’ve gotten too type-dependent. and i’m not just talking about writing pages and pages. by the end of a grocery list, i’m giving my hand a rub-down. SHEESH.

    ::

    onto your q’s:

    yesterday: rollercoaster
    talent: singing
    food: cheese
    computer-free: nope
    question: when?

    I wish my handwriting was that beautiful!

    Did you have to write this more than once? Whenever I try to do something like this, I always end up having to write it 2 or 3 times so there’s no mistakes.

    1) liberating
    2) singing
    3) potatoes
    4) nope, but I’ve been contemplating unplugging
    5) i like alece’s: when?

    I am so freaking sentimental. I just got a little teary seeing your handwriting… weird how that seems so personal when I’ve only ever seen your words in type.

    Ok, to the questions:

    yesterday: unchanging
    talent: playing piano
    food: mashed potatoes
    computer-free: nope. and now what am I going to do on Sunday night? 😉
    question: can I go with you now?

    beautiful anita – here’s my analysis…

    If letters slant to the right: Reveals a person who’s outgoing, friendly, impulsive, and emotionally open.

    Light pressure: Indicates someone who seems to take life in stride.

    Large letters: Sign of a confident, easygoing individual.

    Some letters connecting: Means the writer’s personality blends logic and intuition.

    A straight beginning stroke: Reveals someone who’s rigid and doesn’t like being told what to do.

    I really, really like your writing. It reminds me a lot of a good friend who’s writing, I think, is beautiful and sweet.

    So similarities? Maybe some. Yours seems neater and prettier. Thanks for posting 🙂

    yesterday: humbling
    talent: singing
    food: cheese
    computer-free: nope
    question: How do I always hear Your voice?

    marisa – i considered writing it out again, and i probably should have, but no…i just did it once. thought that would be more authentic.

    but you all – i dont think i have nice writing at all. it seems a bit all over the place. which, i guess, would suit my personality quite well. [insert crazy emoticon here]

    i think we should do this more often. i like the personal touch. i loved it when i saw mandys on her blog and danielle’s.

    gitz and heidi – your comments made ME teary.

    alece – no kidding. seriously, my hand still aches. i aint lyin! this writin thing is far too archaic for me 😕

    meg – i can NOT believe a teacher made you do that! UNbelievable!!! and yes, chips and guac DEFINITELY qualify as one food – yum!!!

    love- shine a flashlight on it.

    and gitz – your question for God….wrecked. me. [tears]

    yes…i was teaching a Bible school class on Biblical Counseling and this week was on grief counseling. one lady in my class, her father is dying. another has been through a painful divorce. i felt so inadequate and still God was able to help bring encouragement to them.

    and, yes, again. i really liked seeing the handwriting we should do it. maybe once a month at most, you know, so our hands dont fall off.

    funny thought — the office supply stores around here are going out of business and cool pens are selling for a buck. maybe that’s why – no one writes! ha!

    I forgot to ask in the handwriting analysis…
    What does it say when you only write ‘in Purple’? 😉

    at least i don’t use purple paper with a dark pen – Sheesh!

    The torch is making it even worse – now i got GLARE as well as ‘fuzzy’ 😐

    I think you’re right on the choked up part, but I’m hearing “God has been good.” Maybe he was gonna go on for more than two words and explain how He’s been good??? That’s the impression I was left with anyway :-).

    yesterday : cruisy
    talent : hand-eye co-ordination
    food : tuna salad
    computer-free : it’s a 24 hour period, but spans two days…does that count?
    God : trying to think of a good one that’s not taken…um…”can I be omniscient too please?”

    My hand hurts just looking at that handwriting. Gitz is right, you’ve got great handwriting. Mine varies massively…must be the multiple versions of me around the place (sorry, that’s an in-joke with Brian Houston), but never looks anything like that good.

    Ok since you’ve heard so much about your handwriting and how beautiful it is, I won’t belabor the point but you do have really nice handwriting. 🙂
    Ok so “One” questions:
    yesterday = tiring
    talent = acting
    food = bean and bacon soup
    computer free day = I don’t have a set day but sometimes I leave my computer alone in the study for several days at a time.
    God question = “Is there life on other planets?”

    Yesterday: past
    Talent: motorcycle racing (you did ask about what we “wished” in the past tense, I’m over it now)
    Food: “every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God” or “manna”
    Computer free day: Not as a ritual, my job is on computers, but less than 10 minutes a day on weekends is not unusual, and occasionally there are days without using a computer at all. I have been TV-free for 7 years.
    Question: What’s up?

    1 talent? better handwriting.

    Dear God: Why did Tam make this crazy googly face in “too” when she mentioned me up there? I’d ask her, but she’s to ornery to answer…
    Love and respect and wondering,

    Hi Tam. 🙂

    I admire your computer free day. I am currently making adjustments for wiser use of computer time.

    I hope you are well and that your hand doesn’t hurt any more.

    I loved seeing this. Your writing is comforting. It’s like seeing my mom’s writing. Feels like a big hug.

    When my mom sent me that box a while ago that had an OLD OLD card from you in it, seeing your handwriting made me feel hugged.

    I love handwriting. And Alece, you have beautiful handwriting!

    Your handwriting looks like a cross between mine and my sister’s. 🙂

    Your questions:
    1. flip-flop (one word. see the hyphen?)
    2. writing music
    3. thank God I don’t have to find out this answer!
    4. only by force. Usually Fridays (because I’m at work all day) (I probably should ‘diet’ from the computer …)
    5. What are all of the answers to all of the questions? (Similar to #3 – no can do the only 1!! I’m full of questions!)
