We all have some God-given talent

I can play the piano. And I think I'm pretty charismatic. Hubby always makes me interact wtih people on a business level bc he says I'm good at it. And I guess I can cook when I actually try. I love to cook, but HATE going to the grocery store and cleaning up the kitchen, so I don't do it often.

Well ..hmmm... I used to work as a telemarketer (not the bill collector kind but the kind who sold vacations at discounts to people who traveled with the company before). My boss used to say I could sell icecubes to eskimos, but it was really that I am a people person. I made people like me & see they needed a vacation so it was hard for them to say no to me.

I also love being creative. I have made scrapbooks. (I did one for angie for her anniversary & I'm pretty sure she liked it). I love throwing themed birthday parties & am quite good at doing so. My last big one was a luau for my oldest daughter's B-day. My next project is a party with woodland theme & fairies for my baby girl who is turning 2 April 3rd. Hubby thinks I spend too much money for them, but my babies are only little once & I don't want to look back & I think "I could have but didn't"

Pretty sure I like it!?!? I cried for two hours! We are getting it framed at that memorabilia place when we move.

Can't wait till little bit's birthday.

Aww, thanks! We've always been pretty close...even though we really got on each other's nerves when we were young. LOL! I don't know what I'd do without her.

DianaB · 03-16-2007, 08:38 PM

(Big Sigh) I wish that I had a sister.

Tink · 03-16-2007, 10:33 PM

I wish I had a sister I could be that close with!

My one and only sister is so extremely different from me that I have refused to talk to her for many years. She's everything I try not to be. It's sad really. I wish it were different, but don't expect it will ever change.

AWWWW thanks Marilyn. I guess we are pretty lucky. We have a little sister that idolizes Ang so maybe she will grow up more like her. We can only hope.

I'm just glad you liked it. It was hard thinking of an idea for you guys but once I started on it (it was my first scrapbook), I became addicted. I love doing them. Guess I should thank you for inspiring me to try something & finding out I love it

LOL! I didn't inspire you, I didn't even know about it!!!

But it was lovely and you really do have a talent for that.

AngieDoogles · 03-17-2007, 08:12 PM

Oh and Tink and DianaB, you are more than welcome to be our adopted sisters!

The more the merrier...that's how it seems to go in our family, lol! Anyone else is welcome to join our sisterhood as well. hehe!

And in response to Traci's "we're different" post...it was kind of one-sided. She made me look way too good and her way too bad. LOL. Actually, I've always wished I was more like her because she's much more willing to take risks and I'm usually too scared or intimidated to do new things. At least I'm getting better now that I have a very adventurous, risk-taking husband.

Also, she's a lot smarter than she gives herself credit for. The only reason she didn't make straight A's was because she was interested in other things, not because she couldn't do it. So there, that's my side. LOL!

I lost my sister to cancer in 1980. She died 3 days before her 40th birthday. She was 14 years older than I. When she died, I was 25 and we were just getting to know each other as adults. Her life was so different than mine. She was pregnant at 15, and married a different guy a couple years later. He ended up being an alcoholic and she was never able to have anything, but she stuck through it all. I still miss her.

I do have 5 sisters-in-law, but there are only two that are worth the time, one more than the other. At least she and I are pretty close.

I am very crafty, I paint, quilt, sew. I have been told I have a knack for decorating (rooms).
