I LOVE celebrating my birthday, especially receiving friends amazing blessings by phone, email, and social media. I’m always completely OVERWHELMED!
I need to get better about writing to all of my Facebook friends on their special days in return. If I missed yours, I apologize, hope it was amazing - I need to “make” more time daily to see which Facebook friends are celebrating.
My friend Jeremy summed it up best -“The best day to have Facebook.. Thanks for the Birthday Wishes…”
One part of receiving the wishes, that I get a charge out of, is to see if and what adjectives my friends use.
I love learning new things, so after seeing all of the adjectives, I asked my coworker Lawrence for a lesson on how to make graphs in Microsoft Excel. So I gathered all of the data and made this from all of the Birthday greetings I received that included adjectives, to have a visual of the breakdown.

I wonder if my friends used “amazing“ specifically because they were sending me Birthday wishes and they hear me use it often? AND use other words for different friends??
I vividly recall Good and Great being used the most last year – by a long shot. I’m thrilled to see the use of new colorful adjectives this year!!
What is your favorite adjective?
Happy New Week,
Robyn








Ha! This is a great question…mine is fabulous…I use it A LOT!
Have a *fabulous* day Robyn!!

I must say that I remember you mentioning at one point last year how you had noticed the majority of your facebook birthday greetings included good or great – adjectives that aren’t quite as “colourful”! And I have remembered your comment on that ever since and I am not exaggerating when I say that everyday when I go to make a facebook greeting, send a text or a message of some sort, I refrain from using the standard good or great now! I believe it has such a positive effect when using more exciting adjectives! That’s all b/c your observation :) Have a fantastic day! :)
