I'm a no-go on 26 as well. Although I can count to 10 in Spanish and German. |

Just got certified in adult, child and infant CPR and AED use.
I'll never be fluent in a foreign language. I do know a little Spanish, though. |

26. Speak at Least Two Common Languages
My Spanish is rough, but I get by and pick up very quickly if I had to relocate to an area that spoke it primarily. 47. Remove a Stain I did get rid of my ex a number of years ago; good enough? Other than that, I'm pretty good at most else, but Master of none. Scott

There are quite a few that I wish I was better at. Packing light? Not great at it. Flirting? Oh, that's right, I've been married for 25 years. I was probably good at it once.
Like simpleman68, my Spanish is rough but after a week in Mexico or Costa Rica I'm rattling it off adequately enough that the locals start talking to me really fast and crap, causing me to remind them that I'm really not that great at Espanol. |

I read the list, andI can actually do everything on it. I had to put the Heimlich Maneuver to use once, and it saved her life. I always wanted to save someone's life...in this case it was my Mom.

9. Terrible at it.
14. See #9. 8 & 19. If you can't do these you'll probably need #47. |

I hate to change a tire, but have done it. Barely speak the second language any longer, ... I used to do sit ups etc. correctly. (Used to is the key word )
I am able to do them all. |

Thank you. My Mom was always bad about slouching when she ate; I tried to get her to sit up straight, but she always fell back into her habit. One night, she stopped eating and excused herself from the table. I heard her trying to throw up in the bath room, but she couldn't breathe. I used the Heimlich Maneuver (which I'd never done before), and the piece of chicken finally came up. Unfortunately, I almost broke her ribs--she was sore for a while! Yep, she bragged about her Son.
