Pad Patter: 8/12 - Never good at?

oh I have a funny (ish) story about my singing. We were taking a trip to the beach. Our campground was about 2 hours away. I was in the backseat of the car and I really can't stand the music my sister and brother-in-law play most of the time. So I am singing along to my ipod, not really realizing that I am doing that. So I hear my brother-in-law say, "wasn't she in choir? I thought she could sing?!" Yeah. Nice. It was totally rude, but kinda funny now. Kinda. Grrrr
 
What have I come up short with????? My height. Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!

Cooking, but I think part of that is my lack of enthusiasm! ;)
I'm VERY bad about fixing up my house! I wish I could just hire people to do it!!
 
There are plenty of things I'm not that great at, but the ones I wish I could just wave a wand and gain a talent for (and love of) are cooking, housekeeping, and anything athletic. :p
 
I'll join the mediocre crowd. I can do several things like singing, playing the piano, cooking, but I don't really excel at any of them. And I'm competitive enough to *want* to do them really well. :)
 
I feel like I come up short in every aspect of my life...lol. Some things I'm definitely better at than others (like I'm completely terrible at some things .. like singing and anything to do with coordination), but I still feel like I come up short everywhere. It's probably more of a self confidence problem than anything though...so I guess self confidence is probably where I fail most.
 
Time management. I used to be incredible at it... back in school I had this planner and had time blocked out for EVERY.THING. It was really kind of obnoxious actually, and that is SO not me anymore. Now I use my phone calendar just to remind me of things because I forget them. And if I do have a minute of free time, instead of using it for something productive, I tend to play or just chill for those few minutes, which I always seem to regret later.

But anyway, I've always wished I could find the balance between not being major type A OCD and managing my time well. It seems the 2 are mutually exclusive in my world.

Keeping house! I so wish I were better at it! A little bit of mess doesn't bother me as long as I can do my own thing ... But I WANt it to bother me :) I see my friends spic and span houses and I am all jealous but know it is an uphill task for me ... So def want to be a pro at that ... I'm taking baby steps though towards it :)
