This one is making it's rounds, that's for sure!! It's the What Your Name Means test.

Because the results are so long, this one time, please, refrain from posting yours below... Feel free to post your #'s... but not the explanations, ok? Thanks! :)

Here are my own results... (birthday one to follow in another post.)

****************
There are 14 letters in your name.
Those 14 letters total to 72
There are 5 vowels and 9 consonants in your name.

What your first name means:
Captivating; knotted cord.

Your number is: 9

The characteristics of #9 are: Humanitarian, giving nature, selflessness, obligations, creative expression.

The expression or destiny for #9:
The expression that you exhibit is represented by the number 9. Your talents center in humanistic interests and approaches. You like to help others as you were intended to be the 'big brother or big sister' type. You operate best when you follow your feelings and sense of compassion, and allow yourself to be sensitive to the needs of others. You work well with people, and have the potential to inspire. This suggests that you could successfully teach or counsel. Creative ability, imagination and artistic talent (often latent) of the highest order are present in this expression. It's possible that you're not using or developing all of these capabilities at this time. Some of your talents may have been used at an earlier time in your life, and some may still be latent. Be aware of your capabilities, so that you can make use of them at appropriate times.

If you are able to achieve the potential of your natural expression in this life, you are capable of much human understanding and have a lot to give to others. Your personal ambitions are likely to be maintained in a very positive perspective, never losing sight of an interest in people, and a sympathetic, tolerant, broad-minded and compassionate point of view. You are quite idealistic, and disappointed at the lack of perfection in the world. You have a strong awareness of your own feeling as well as those of others. Friendships, affection, and love are extremely important.

Undeveloped or ignored, the negative side of the 9 expression can be very selfish and self-centered. If you do not actively involve yourself with work that benefits others, you may tend to express just the opposite characteristics. It is your role to be very involved with other people and their needs, but it may be difficult for you achieve this role. Aloofness, lack of involvement, and a lack of sensitivity mark the low road of this expression.

Your Soul Urge number is: 22

A Soul Urge number of 22 means:
The Soul Urge of the master number 22 is very much that of the master builder. You would like to use your abilities in an important humanitarian undertaking, and have an innate desire is to express the significant power you feel in a concrete manner, as a builder, engineer, diplomat, etc. In some way you want to make a considerable contribution to the world.

The 22 gives a broad, universal outlook with a rather practical and common-sense approach. You have especially high intelligence, with an unusual perception and awareness. This number often denotes a high degree of diplomatic abilities and high ideals. You are a very capable person and you may possess special leadership abilities that you can and should develop. People respect you and recognize your superior foresight and vision.

The negative side of the 22 soul urge is a high degree of nervous energy and a tendency to be very dominating. It is unfortunate that all who possess the urge of 22 do not use its energies to the greatest advantage; but then it should be recognized that these energies are understandably the most difficult to focus and direct.

Your Inner Dream number is: 5

An Inner Dream number of 5 means:
You dream of being totally free and unrestrained by responsibility. You see yourself conversing and mingling with the natives in many nations, living for adventure and life experiences. You imagine what you might accomplished.

*************
I also did this with my SL name... interesting to say the least!! LOL...

You entered: LadyHarley Destiny

There are 17 letters in your name.
Those 17 letters total to 81
There are 5 vowels and 12 consonants in your name.

Your number is: 9 (same as above)

Your Soul Urge number is: 3

A Soul Urge number of 3 means:
With the Soul Urge number 3 your desire in life is personal expression, and generally enjoying life to its fullest. You want to participate in an active social life and enjoy a large circle of friends. You want to be in the limelight, expressing your artistic or intellectual talents. Word skills may be your thing; speaking, writing, acting, singing. In a positive sense, the 3 energy is friendly, outgoing and always very social.

You have a decidedly upbeat attitude that is rarely discouraged; a good mental and emotional balance.

The 3 Soul Urge gives intuitive insight, thus, very high creative and inspirational tendencies. The truly outstanding trait shown by the 3 Soul Urge is that of self-expression, regardless of the field of endeavor.

On the negative side, you may at times become too easygoing and too optimistic, tending to scatter forces and accomplish very little. Often, the excessive 3 energy produces non-stop talkers. Everyone has faults, but the 3 soul urge doesn't appreciate having these pointed out.

Your Inner Dream number is: 6

An Inner Dream number of 6 means:
You dream of guiding and fostering the perfect family in the perfect home. You crave the devotion from offspring and a loving spouse. You picture yourself in the center of a successful domestic unit.

Chiari Malformation

As most of you know, I have a problem that causes a lot of headache & other problems. Some have requested I post the information about it again... So here it is...

Take a look at this photo... (found it on Google a long time ago & had it saved)... I shared this on Y!360... so to some of you it may look familiar.

Anyway, pay attention to the small arrows that show how the fluid flow should be (on left) & how it is for us who have CM.



One of the solutions to relieve pain is to lay down... That is why some days I talk about sleeping a lot. I've also been told by other Chiarians that the minimum amount of sleep one, with this Malformation, should be 8 hours.

This is just a tip of the iceberg with this... As I find out more, I'll post it.

Thank you for your time.

October, already??

Well, all I have to say is I am glad it's here... because the temps have come in with the season, as they should! Though it has been a chilly day... I am thrilled because I can snuggle under the covers.

I am however, fighting really nasty headache again today... but I'm working through it for now. Hoping it was just from being on my feet for so long while grocery shopping. I'm sure my sleep schedule is not helping either... Though the last couple nights I did get about 8 hours each night.

Ok... that's it for now. Just wanted welcome you all to October!! :)
