Is there something that you wish that you were better at doing?

Is there something out there that you wish that you were better at doing? Have you taken measures to change or better yourself with it? -- classes...etc?

this is multiple choice!

Happy face

I love music!! I've always wished that I could sing. I can't carry a note. Never took any classes, it wouldn't help!! lol.....This Summer I want to take some computer classes. I'm on a MSM-TV right now but want to buy a computer very soon.

I can sew wonderfully but can not get my buttonholer maker to work. This spring I am going to figure that out and lean how to finsh seams differnent ways. I am really enjoying the little things in sewing. I want to learn more! I am on a craft forum and have some great books to read.

I wish I could sew too Connie my g-mom was a great seamstress too bad some of those genes did not end up in me.
I wish I understood computers more than I do. And would love to be able to carry a tune. I sing in church NOT in the choir but otherwise when the congregation sings.

I also chose singing. I love to sing but I don't have a "solo quality" voice. Probably never will. But I'd love to be able to sing better, and with a greater range.

I also chose "other." I have an organ sitting here in my dining room and I wish I knew how to play it.

Great question

Driving...since I don't drive I think that would be something I would want to learn...

Style...because my daughters tell me I have no fashion sense...lol

Singing...I can't carry a tune in a bucket...lol
