My answers
Date: 2021-10-23 11:03 am (UTC)1. What was a skill you were proud to learn as a kid?
Writing in cursive. I learned early in first grade, so was surprised when I switched schools and had to help fifth graders who were struggling.
2. What's something you used to be good at, but can't do any more?
I used to be quite flexible and strong in yoga (when I was taking 2-3 classes per week.) Now that I am doing other things more and only sporadically taking yoga, my flexibility and ability to do inversions and binds has decreased.
3. What's something you haven't done in a long time, but you could pick it right back up again with some practice?
With more regular practice; I could be better at yoga again, also higher level math (calculus.)
4. What can you teach others to do?
If I had patience enough, I could teach others about seasonal cooking, bread making, using the mixer, baking, budgeting, organizing...lots of things. I am just not a very patient teacher.
5. What would you like to learn next?
I am trying to get better with French and I would like to learn ASL (it is possible that I will need it should my hearing deteriorate to that point.)
