The ability to love without question (til it's abused), to laugh at myself and to be a friend you can depend on. I also have some that are not G-rated so I will let them slide!!!

I can generally be totally unbiased and see both sides to every story. I see the beauty in all races and nationalities. I am always optimistic, sometimes to a fault. But, I'm not sure if those are talents or not. I have a talent for teaching others, whether it's cosmetology, or making better choices as in the case of my teenage children's friends. My kids' friends all call me "mom" and will come to me to discuss their boyfriends/girlfriends, sex, drugs, etc. I don't judge them, but try to help them make the right decisions.


Dayum...this was a toughie.

Thumbs up Yet again...

It's all about me!

- I'm a talented artist (if I do say so myself!)
- Even though I've never given birth, I've successfully raised two sisters, a husband, and a whole gaggle of friends.
- Even though I have a Bachelor's degree in it, I'm a naturally talented manager. There's only so much books can teach you in this regard.
- And the grand finale - In 5 years and hundreds of games, there is only one person who can beat me at Scrabble.

Well Barbara....that sounds like a challenge to me????

I'd love to challenge you to a game of Scrabble.....I'd probably lose, but it sounds like lots of fun!

Default Hmmm

Breaking a complicated subject down so that it is easily explainable to anyone.

Patience.

Resourcefulness.

Arguing/debating.

These are my G-rated special talents.

When I was much younger and thinner, I was an awesome soccer player. Maybe when I shed this weight, I can play again.

I am also very creative and artistic. I used to paint and fire ceramics.
