I'd like to be able to catch a fly with one hand. A friend of mine can do it and it drives me nutz that I can't. I've been trying for years every summer , and I can't Suss it :/ and how I'd use it .... I'd catch a fly in one hand ... Then yell " I CAN DO IT TOO , SUCKA! " then I'd be over it :)
I'd like to be able to skip stones like this guy:
Water powers!
I wish I could sew really well. I tried several classes, but just never got the hang of it. It would be great to make clothes for my family and sew beautiful dresses for brides .... Even prom dresses for girls who can't afford to buy them.
I wish I could sing. My voice is awful! And no, I am not just saying that. The look on my husband face the first time he heard me said it all.
I would get a skill so I could get a job and stop being such a burden to everyone who comes in contact with me. I would learn to build bridges instead of burn them. I just wouldn't go over them cuz I am afraid of heights.
Hi Dozy,
Well I was just going to answer that I am already so replete with skills and can't think of anything else, but then I saw Hippy's stone-skipping video....
And yes, I would like that. It's a very sad story but when my father took us out to the river around 1953 for the rite-of-passage stone skipping lessons, my little brother was great. When I grieved about this to my mother, she said girls had elbows jointed differently than boys, so it was okay. (I don't know if that is true but sounded good.)
But then when I was sixty, I myself taught a little boy how to skip stones! He was only nine but he was instantly better than me...(sigh)
Anyway, ty for asking this sad story...I want to skip stones like AH.
