All of us have some spectacular qualities and hidden attributes....so, my question is....What are you good at doing?

Okay, I'll start.....

1. Driving in the snow.
2. Raking leaves.
3. Baking sweets.
4. Making fine art frames.
5. Keeping secrets.
6. and I am good listener.

[Later Edit]

7. Following Directions, like Genesis, I only need to see the place once and I can get around.
8. A great sense of direction as well, I have a 97% accurate internal compass.
9. Capturing the atmosphere in plein-air painting.
10. Online researching, I can find almost anything, I actually should have a job in it?
11. and I am told I am a good shipmate...:)

hmm, well, that's all I can think of at the moment, I'll probably add more later! :)

Playing Piano; I play everying from Mozart to Jazz.
Reading; I am an omniverous reader.
Typing...well if 75 WPM is considered good.
Driving...part of it is imagining I'm James Bond. lol!

Good at being disciplined: I run 45 minutes Monday through Friday. I haven't missed a day running or a day of work in two years!

Polly, I love raking leaves!

Polly, I know that you are a good listener. :)

You guys are the best! and what you yall doing up so late? Oh yeah, God's toy don't have to work for like a month!...LOL Oh, yes, and it's Friday night! and this is definitley the best place to be on the internet...cause the party is over here!!! wooooo! Okay, yes, I am feeling pretty good, and I am good at more things than just posting on MW...other things are....writing...and not just poetry, I actually have a thing about writing....when it comes to school, and research papers, or any paper, writing is my thing. Also, speaking in front of crowds...because I am not a shy person...but, I still get nervouse, I mean, thats just natural....I am good with sports, basketball, tennis, running, endurance, weight lifting......I can go on with that.....and also, I am great at following instructions, coordination, rules and so on. I used to dance...but, with age, I don't know, and I am fit too, but dancing is not as easy as it used to be when I was in my 20's...so, I am working on that...trying to do the belly dancing thing....Especially now, since I am older, I am sure,my husband will find appreciation in that type of dance! Instead of jerking myself around like hip hop dancing....LOL

`Procrastinating (I'm a pro at that)
`Mixing/Arranging Music (finding out recently I got alot of talent for it)
`Art, Mehndi (as you all know)
`Writing (Im not the best, but I'm not the worst, but i can conjure up a pretty interesting tale)
`Directions - (even if i've just been there once, i usually know how to get there again)

Just a few I can think of right now.

Well being as incredible as I am, (lol) I would have to say that I am good at a lot of stuff. BUT, there are only a few things that I am proud to say I am good at. Being a friend, being someone you can trust, living life the way I want and last but not least, being a GREAT dancer. LoL.

Well, that's a talent of yours for sure. I do like that a lot though, you're a very kind, positive and warm person so it's always fun to read your posts.

So, I'm good at ...
... mixing music (it's a mystery why I'm not a DJ).
... eating ice cream (too much *looking down at my little belly*).
... playing around in the snow.
... dancing.
... buying too expensive gifts for friends and family.
... writing letters. Not letters as in mail but letters, my handwriting is something people usually give compliments about.
... reading post and not reply to them, I'll however stay more vocal here. :)

Thank you Gollum.......but i've had enough being honest,most people don't expect you to be honest instead they want you to speak what they want to hear...:crazy

Honesty ,it seems is not always the best policy.

That's why you have to have good judgement of character and be aware of the subject at hand. Obviously if someone asks you how's their hairdo, you gotta lie as if your life depends on it. But if someone asks you for serious advice and you give it and then he starts confornting you about it - screw him.

:rofl: Screw 'him'? In many instances it has been a 'her' :D.........Oh yeah i also believe that i am a good judge of character but where i mess up is that I try the same approach with every character and for every subject....anyway thanks for your advice :hi:

And how many have asked you about there hairdo? What was your reply? :crazy

See? this is where you need good judgment because i think you can tell by the type of person, who would want your honest opinion and who would want only a confirmation of his decisions.

And how many have asked you about there hairdo? What was your reply? :crazy
Oh i lie like crazy. Some opinions were not meant to be heard :D.

One may think, that every artist who paints knows and has good skill at stretching their own canvases, well, I've been around the block a few times and I have a trained eye for pointing out a well stretched canvas....which is trully an art form unto itself...

Well, one another thing I am (exceptionally) good at doing is....stretching canvases.

When I flick my finger on the canvas to test for the tightness, it always sounds like a nice mid-tone drum! :)
