What Simple Skill/Ability Do You Lack?!?

Okay....I can't make a taco with my tongue....and I can't make change when someone gives me "extra" money. I know, I know, I feel really stupid and this is why I've stayed away from cash-handling jobs....but I just can't think about it. I get completely flustered!!!
 
I can't whistle, roll my r's, or fold a fitted sheet well.

Can anyone fold a fitted sheet so it looks nice? I think we could use instructions.

I still make bunny ears.

Am I the only one????

You're not the only one, my kids gave up trying to teach me how to tie my shoes like a 'big girl'.
 

I can't give change either!! I've always been good with math, but something about change just blows my mind!!
I have taken dance classes for 14 years, but I cant go out and just dance and have fun. I think part of it is because im scared I will look stupid! haha
I also cant spell.
Theres tons of other stuff too!! haha
 
I just can't make fried chicken the way my mom used to. I've tried over and over. I've read dozens of cookbooks, but it never turns our crispy like her's did.
 
Feralpeg....your daughter is outstanding! So glad you're enjoying Florida! :teeth:
 
I, like Saffron cant add air to tires. I am petrified of blowing the tire up!

I can't ski.. I just can't do it!
 
I can't keep up with laundry. I always say I'm going to not let it pile up yet it does. I go in to do a load and there isn't enough...then it seems in just days I have a big pile again. Oh well, at least we have a big laundry room to pile it all up in. ;)
 
I can't snap, and for some reason I'm really bad at making change. :confused3
 
I can't cook for the life of me and I have the hardest time getting the motivation to do my dishes.
 
I cant sew.I wish I could but I cant.I also have a horrible sense of direction and for the life of me cannot tie a balloon.I can blow them up...but thats it.
 
Now I don't feel so alone!

I can't whistle either. My brother could give concerts whistling, I can't make a sound.
 
I cant sew, draw, or(this is embarrasing), make a salad. I know washing off lettuce shouldnt be so difficult but for some reason whenever I try to make one it tastes awful.
 
I'm feeling better about myself. I didn't know I was so talented. I CAN whistle, blow up balloons, tie my shoes, roll my 'R's and boil an egg!! Fitted sheets are supposed to be rolled up, not folded, right?? Husbands are supposed to put air in tires, right? If I want crispy chicken I go to a restaurant, otherwise it's grilled. Your'e not supposed to get caught up on laundry, just not get so behind there's nothing to wear... But, I can't sing to save my life!!!!

1. NO sense of direction. I mean it. I've been to our local malls a million times in my life but have never driven there. I know! I know! It's pathetic,but it's the truth...I have NO sense of direction.

2. Can't tell left from right. Must have some influence on flaw #1. I failed my first driving test when I went the opposite way the instructor told me to. I thought my mom (in the back seat) was going to die!


I think #1 is something you're born with. I was blessed with an awesome sense of direction.

#2 hold you're hands up in front of you with the palms facing out. Your left hand makes an L

I cannot cook anything from scratch. I can follow directions though. I can't draw to save my life. I got a bad grade in the 4th grade b/c the teacher didn't like the way I drew the state of Virginia :( I can't make coffee no matter how many times DH shows me. Good thing I don't drink coffee
 
I must have missed the day that the teacher went over the art of good penmanship, because mine is NOT good! Maybe I was supposed to be a doctor. :confused3
 
I can't cook buiscits in a can. I really mean that too. I always burn it. I can cook a lot of things, just not that. Oh, and I'm not that good at baking. Cooking, sauteing, OK, baking, urgh.

II know left from right but I can't say it. My brain will say left but my mouth will say right. DH and I will get into fights over directions on the road.:p
