Question of the Day Friday aug 4th

[strider rose]

hello my TCS family! here is friday's question of the day :
What skill would you like to master? i would like to master writing my stories well enough to publish a book

 

[neely]

I always wanted to take piano lessons but never did and wish I could master a musical instrument.

 

[Mia6]

becoming fluent in French, i took 3 years in high school but i am not fluent

 

[game misconduct]

i would like to master prepping/processing raw to feed graycie she is like a kid that loves mcdonalds chicken nuggets yet refuses to eat real chicken

Horseback riding I wanted a horse growing up, I lived on a farm so it was possible. My father would not give in on that. He was born in 1913 and remembered farming with them when he was a kid. He didn't hate horses, he didn't hate any animal, he just didn't want the work and money that went into having a horse. I occasionally rode a neighbor's horse but he was gentle and very forgiving, so I didn't have to know anything about riding. I doubt I would have done anything competitive just trail riding.

expensive

All the common trades (plumbing, electrical, carpentry) Being a homeowner is great but it would be so much better if I could do all my own maintenance/fixes!

 

[betsygee]

Weaving! I took a weaving workshop and loved it. Then I was gifted a big loom and now I need to learn how to use it!

 

[Lari]

Emotional regulation and patience so I could actually be a good parent.

 

[susanm9006]

Plumbing And electrical skills. It sure would save me a lot.

The only thing I can think of is Spanish. I kind of understand and read it, but I never got the whole noun before the verb thing when I try to speak it.
When my son gets a spam/scam call, he answers in Spanish and tries to talk to them. They hang up real quick. lol

Same! I was raised on a small cattle ranch, but my dad disliked horses (waste of money + he had fallen off of a horse when he was younger) so we were never able to have horses and he didn't really want me to take lessons either. I've got the great skill of being able to work and move cattle from the ground, but for many reasons a horse is preferable

I would love to master plant identification. There are just so many and so many that look similar it's hard. But I am trying.

Agreed

I have watched videos of cutting horse competitions on Youtube and I think that is amazing what those horses can do and that the riders manage to stay on the horse while they are doing it.

 

[Tik cat's mum]

I'd love to be able to draw, my brother is fantastic he can look at something and draw it . When he was a lot younger he had life-sized pictures what he'd done himself on his bedroom walls.

I remember one time I was riding my friend's big buckskin stallion and we were cutting cattle. Having a background in both Dressage and Western, I was only using my legs and body to move the horse. My friend stopped and said, "Do something about that before the horse kills itself". I stopped and looked down and saw that the bridle had broken and was hanging down around his neck. Neither myself nor the horse seemed to notice.
That horse was amazing.

Either painting or piano. Both are really good ways to release emotion and express yourself. Both require more dedication to practice than I've put in to things before; so I guess I don't want it bad enough.

That's a good point. I'm going with the same. My dad fixes a lot of my household problems, but I'd like to be able to do it on my own.

Strider, you questions always leave me in deep thought. So many options here. It’s a tossup between being as good at Jeet Kune Do as Bruce Lee or wishing I had the chops to join my volunteer fire dept., which I still might do.
