I can type really fast,you may not be able to tell from posts but I'm a darn good writer, I know a lot about NASCAR, Country Music, WWII, Civil War. I can crochet, sew and knit. I'm a darn good cook. And....TMI....xdh says I'm sittin' on a gold mine sexually but I don't know it. Was that a compliment?
I think everyone on Earth is talented, but others more so. The list of BP celebs should show us that.

Good question, Carla! I said other because I'm good at all of the above. I'm a natural healer, so medicine is one point. I'm a great singer (used to sing opera informally). I love to draw. I'm good at painting. I'm pretty crafty. I'm a great writer, too! Poetry is my big thing. (If you'd ever want to read some, try my website. A note of caution: Most of them are fairly dark. I used my poetry as my therapy because I couldn't actually see a therapist.) My dh has never had any complaints sexually and he thinks I'm talented. I guess, other than the bp, I'm the total package. :) Brains and brawn! hehe
It's tough to really acknowledge the postive about myself. All I tend to see is my mood swings and rage and bp. Even when I'm manic, like today, it's tough to admit that I might be more than just my bp.
That is exactly why I posted the poll. We are always looking at the negative and we can't help but do that. I started thinking....then it hit me. This board is chock full of talent. From an opera singer =o) to pre-med. It is diversified and it is GREAT.
I will check out your poetry. I like to write prose, short stories. I wrote poetry in high school and got published in Seventeen once. I lost the mag! Can't even remember the year or the month to order. DUH ME! Oh and I've been published for a quirky thing I wrote about a friend in Pro Wrestling Illustrated, Rest his soul my friend died before he could read it. The world mourned....can't talk about that. WHEW~
I can't draw, hate to paint, but words....I love words. I was an English major in high school and a bit of college. I just hated being told how to structure my sentences. LOL For me writing is an outlet. My puncuation and all is off, but the writing is decent.

Awesome Carla! We must all remember the positive about ourselves. It is so hard to see sometimes. I chose other because I have more than one, I guess. I suppose I could have just chosen music. Maybe they're all just hobbies and I'm not talented at any of it. I don't know.
I play the piano, guitar (only for a year so I pretty much suck) and some flute (a whole 2 semesters in HS). I love so sing, hate my voice.
I write but I doubt I'm any good, still somehow I'm convinced I'm going to write a book (that was a manic idea from last summer that I think is going to take me into this manic summer)
I have done one sketch which I think is amazing - because I surprised myself in doing it.

I don't really know much about art. Never took it in my life, or drama. I just took music music music. (and math!)
I generally do well with numbers but my brain works in mysterious ways so I'm hard pressed to expalin it to anyone..
I like to knit and crochet, but I'm just a novice.
Oh and photography.

Not the greatest pictures, but most of them are at my dad's.

AMAZING!!!! I loved your sketch and the pictures!!!!!
I crochet and knit and LOVE it. I've been doing it since I was about 11 or 12 and I'm almost 37 and I still consider myself a novice. But I'm knitting booties for my family for Christmas now, so I will hopefully get a blanket to my Mom then too. WISH ME TONS OF LUCK!!!
my vote was music....
i'm a pianist/piano teacher.
Good Luck! I'm hoping to do blankets for my friends' babies for Christmas...wish me luck too! :)

Wow Beth, I can't believe I didn't know that about you. I wish I could do that but I was too chicken to audition. I was only in level 8 (and just begun, and had stopped lessons a year or two earlier) and they want level 9.
Love,
Amanda
((((Missy)))
I know it doesn't seem like you aren't good at anything sometimes, but I know you are. We all are, even if it doesn't feel like it. That's the bipolar talking. Don't listen to it.
Love and hugs,
Amanda
