I am brilliant I tell you, at doing the complete opposite of what i 'should' be doing. I excel at wasting time and being easily distracted. I'm reknown for my ability to do sweet fa. I should have headlines written about me for my afternoons contemplating my navel and righting the worlds wrongs. I'm superb, generally, and very modest with it all. Now, where was I?.... Could nt have said it better myself.....DITTO

As Boring Aunty Sam I can put any baby to sleep (not so good at getting them to stay that way though). And at Faking Fabulous when things are Totally Trucked. :) Hmmm. That would make a lot of our time in Dubai Fake. Fake. Fake. Fake. Fake...

PS - books, sleeping, pool bathing and lappy time take up much of what I'm good at (outside work) time!! Never enough hours in the day :-( x

LOL nice thread & one that I can so identify with!!! My DH & I often remark that if 'doing nothing' was a recognised qualification we'd both qualified professors of 'doing nothing'. We are VERY good at wasting time and enjoying it!! On our days off our fave quote is 'nothing to do, and all day to do it in'. Followed by 'where'd the day go??'. That said, I am very good at getting up each week day at 6am....going to and doing work stuff, then coming home anytime between 6 and 8pm, and somehow organsing the washing, the washing up (boo) the laundry, cooking semi sensible meals (or grabbing somthing from the freezer), keeping myself looking like a woman rather than a tramp ....etc etc! I delight in doing NOTHING outside of those times!!! And I waste SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much time in front of my lappy, but I wouldnt have it any other way. LLx <em>edited by Loopy Lotti on 09/02/2011</em>

Pretty much baking, eating, procrastinating, and browsing the internet (little bit of a facebook/farmville and EW addiction going on at the moment...) Starting to think I need to get a life... ;) <em>edited by emmess on 09/02/2011</em>

I am only good at baking and browing the internet. Sometimes I go off course and do too much of the wrong thing. Today we have a chocolate cake, fully iced, the whole shabang and a [b'>pineapple upside[/b'> cake. hmmmmm......I forgot I had already made one, and went on to make another. I guess some ice cream will be coming out of the freezer tonight.... *tries not to snigger*

took me 10 long years to realize what i was good at... ORGANIZING SOCIAL EVENTS! I have started charging for these now... but not till I had done countless FREE birthdays, baptisms, anniversaries, weddings, etc! :) only good thing about it all is that it's made me a stronger, wiser, creative and more organized person! hehehee... and, post pregnancy, I'm also exceptionally great at NOT LOSING WEIGHT!!

Cat puke ( most days) and husband puke ( when he has a blow out once in a blue moon!) I will do house calls in exchange for a cup of tea and a hobnob biscuit. edited by Hotpot on 09/02/2011 Cripes! Missed your edit! That's a deal! You can have your hobnobs, but I am happy to bake cupcakes and scones though, and have a nespresso if you prefer coffee...
