So tell me why.

I am still learning a great deal about you all. So what makes you special. We all have talents and well a lack of talents care to share with me?

I can play over 15 musical instruments. I am a classical trained trumpet player and have a degree in Music Education for Autistic Development.

I can speak 3 languages (English, french, American sign).

I do graphic design for websites as a hobby.

BUT

I cant cook to save my life

I can not catch a baseball

And I am stubborn (too stubborn for my own good)

God bless our troops

Ohh what fun question....

I don't have "talents" but I have things that I enjoy.

I can do just about any "outdoor" type of work. Lay brick, build a wood fance or chain link, plant anything and have it grow, (not counting house plants) and enjoy working with my hands in the dirt.

I am sure there is more but coffee is done...........:D

I think its great that you play so many instruments. I am tone deaf and would scare the dogs away...

I can "read" some ASL, but not much anymore, took it in college and but don't remember it much any more

Thank you for asking

I would have to say I don't have any talents either.  I also am a terrible cook.  I burn things really good though.

I am good with children.  In fact I love little kids. Puberty however does not thrill me.

I was a really good letter carrier and was great at customer service when I could no longer deliver mail and worked inside.  

I love retirement.

I only speak English, I love country music. George Strait is my favorite singer.  After him I love Jimmy Buffet.  He makes me laugh and I love to laugh.

I enjoy reading, walking, and seeing plays and movies.

My favorite people are my grand kids.

I love being my age. (I am 51).  I appreciate life so much more now.

I sing. Since I was a teenager...doesnt take alot to get me up for karaoke.

I also like to draw and paint.

Im left handed.

Hmmmm, what else....

I dont like going to movies. I think its a waste of time.

I will eat grilled onions, but I hate them raw.

Hi Katrina,

This is a fun post. I just spent a few minutes typing a reply to it, but it didn't post so here I go again. If two posts come up, my bad.

Talents;

I can play three instruments: piano, clarinet and saxophone. I took lessons for years and when I was 18 was a professional musician for a Broadway like production of Mame for a season

I can give a good speech. I don't have a fear of public speaking and enjoy being interviewed by the press because it's challenging. I've also managed political campaigns

I have athletic abilities and can hit the @#$$ out of baseball

I know how to do traditional Greek and Armenian dances

BUT

I have an eating disorder/addiction and think about food all the time despite years of therapy and WLS!!!!

I scare people when I sing

I think I am the world's most impatient person. A long line and one check stand open drives me nuts. So do traffic jams

I can be anal about being on time and drive my B- type husband nuts because of it

OK, who's next? Inquiring minds want to know!

Ms Blues my mom is a leftie also... my son picked up both habits. Traffic you dont want to see me, I am like an evil bear.

LOL I love to speak in the public and I have done many perfessional performances.

God bless our troops

Cool thing on the speaking. I can't believe that when people list fears, public speaking is #1.
