(clean sweep)

holy crap!

I just looked at it. It is too perfectionistic and complex for me!

I wish you luck on it though!

i hear you

That’s what I thought too. But I’m definitely one of those people who gets really frazzled and paralyzed when the little things are getting out of hand. I just want to see if I can hit that 100% for just a little while…that’d be cool :)

Good for you; keep at it.
I remember taking the quiz and being so disappointed with my number it scared me away (I thought I was doing so much better!). Maybe I could try again.

me too!

Last year, I tried it and depressingly learned that I was a total mess. Not encouraging. If you’re in a good relationship/friendship, and your finances aren’t a total mess, you can do pretty well on those things alone.

Took it again

About 65, give or take the ones that don’t apply/never will (for instance, I don’t have a car).
My almost monastic life (no caffeine, no alcohol, no red meat, etc) helped my score :)

you're supposed to

shamelessly check off the ones that don’t apply, on the theory that what you’re really measuring are things that subconsciously bother you – and your car maintenance certainly doesn’t keep you awake nights if you don’t have a car.

so wow, you’ve got it t-o-g-e-t-h-e-r. nice.

12?!

Well, now I’m just confused. If Miss Sarana is pulling a 12, maybe this isn’t a very accurate measure of anything at all.

A lot of the list is definitely luck: plenty of people have bad financial situations, are single, and aren’t thrilled with their jobs, and that doesn’t make them disorganized.

relationships are

the thorn in my side too (doesn’t that sound awful?). Even though my marriage/friendship/work relationships are fine, being a critical, bitchy gossip is costing me lots of points.
