The House Test
Janelle Icon

I’ll admit it — I’m cheating today. As you’re reading this, I’m deep into getting the house completely packed up so the movers can take off for Oregon by tomorrow (Friday). So, I’m not spending a lot of time on-line and my head is too full of lists of things that I have to do and get done before we leave on Saturday, and I can’t seem to focus on writing a normal blog.

So, I’m opting for a fun quiz/test that is very appropriate to the occasion of us moving! This one is called “The House Test”, and all you have to do is answer a few quick questions about your “dream house” to find out what it says about you and your personality when it comes to your home and where you want to live. Surprisingly, mine was a pretty good reflection of ME.


What the House Test Says About You


You are happy with who you are, and you don’t have an inflated sense of self importance. You do your own thing quietly. You don’t take up a lot of space.

You aren’t against being community oriented, but it’s not really your thing. You tend to prefer to focus on your family and not the neighborhood around you.

You are a calm, contemplative, and smart person. You take ideas very seriously.

You look good in a low maintenance sort of way. You do the minimum required to be attractive.

You find it hard to be enthusiastic about much. You are a picky person.

So, take THE HOUSE TEST, and let us know what your results say about you!

Janelle

JanelleJanelle Denison finds it hard to believe that it’s been nearly 25 years since she first started writing romance novels. At first, it was a way to pass idle time while her husband worked swing shift, but before long it became an obsession to get published. Luckily, she kept at it (it took her over 5 years to get that first book published!) and is now a Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble, and USA Today Bestselling author! Now, after selling over 45 plus novels, she finds that her Plotmonkey pals help to keep her stories fresh and unique, and she can’t imagine writing a story without their input. Janelle lives in Oregon with her husband, Don, along with two teenage daughters that keep life interesting.

    You consider yourself important, but no more important than anyone else. You love attention, but you don’t feel like you deserve more of it than anyone else.

    You can’t stand community oriented people and annoying “buy local” campaigns. You prefer to live the best life possible, and that doesn’t really involve many other people.

    You are a playful, charming, and seductive person. People feel instantly close to you.

    You take good care of your physical appearance. You dress well, stay in shape, and do your best to look great.

    You are moved by romance and love. You are optimistic about people, and you love hearing about happy endings.

    Some of that is right on the mark, a lot of it is way off the mark. And that last question…I have one of each of those kinds of gardens but it would only let me pick one!

    I really hope the move goes smoothly and quickly. Big, big hugs and lots of well wishes!!

    You aren’t against being community oriented, but it’s not really your thing. You tend to prefer to focus on your family and not the neighborhood around you.

    You are an eccentric and unusual person. You enjoy strange activities… Activities so strange, you should probably keep them to yourself.

    You look attractive, but mostly because your rely on your natural good looks to get by.

    You are moved by romance and love. You are optimistic about people, and you love hearing about happy endings.

    I have everything but a rock garden (at least an intentional one, the pile of rocks doesn’t count, does it?)

    I love the eccentric and unusual comment. That is so true.

    OOPs I forgot!

    Loved Hot Property! It is a truly romantic romance.

    Zoey gives it 3 1/2 paws up.

    Gonna try and read Leslie’s newest and second in the series,

    Heated Rush. Leaving for r&r tomorrow and looking forward to a few

    weeks in the woods. Just me, my honey and the Moose.

    Well, since I had to go with second choices (my first choice didn’t exist on any of the questions, I suppose it’s a bit like me. Janelle, good luck on the move and I’m reading my way through the Wild/Wilde series in preparation for “Wild For Him”. Can’t wait!

    This is very off the mark. I only have one creative bone in my body and I used it up when I was seven. :)

    Good luck with the move. I hope it goes smoothly.

    Janelle, you have every right to ‘cheat’ with your blog entry today. I mean, moving is one of the best excuses out there. Besides, this was a fun little test, even if it didn’t get me quite right. :thumbsup:
