[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did a lot of activities as a kid. I am not athletic, but do camp, backpack, hike, bike and kayak. Team sports never stuck. I can generally make anything and fix anything. I'm very comfortable with power tools. My kids have amazing homemade Halloween costumes every year. Our house has custom built ins and other builds. I can throw a pot on a wheel, make a quilt, sew an outfit from a pattern or from my head, screen print a T-shirt, use things found in nature to dye fabric, etc. I can wire a circuit, design and program a custom robot, etc. I'm also comfortable with music and can play a bit of piano, several brass instruments, flute, clarinet, guitar. Though I can't really sing. I also have a JD and a PhD in STEM. So lots of comfort with science and math topics. Lots of comfort with civics, history and writing. I have no problem helping my kids with homework. I also read a ton.[/quote] Well, damn![/quote]
