10 Things In My Life I Wish I Was Better At {Day 5}

*And am working on*

1. Praying without ceasing

2. Being brave when it comes to making new friends & putting myself out there with people that I don't know

3. Following through with laundry. I'm great at starting a load. Not so bad about putting said load into the dryer. Very bad at folding clothes. Terribly hideously bad at getting said clothes into drawers.

4. Memorizing Scripture.

5. Photography. I think I'm a decent amateur. But I would really love to really learn photography. I want to know what all the buttons on my camera mean & how to make them work really well.

6. Speaking only words that bring life to people. I tend to be overly critical (especially towards my husband). Constantly praying for God to "put a guard over my mouth".

7. Painting (not walls, but on canvas). I love to paint--I find it very therapeutic. However, I am really good at painting backgrounds. Then I stare at my canvas for hours. Then I write a word on it. I cannot for the life of me paint an object on my canvas! Cracks me up every time. My friend Erin & I joke that we are going to open a business where we sell background-painted canvases that other people can paint their objects on. Oh goodness.

8. Walking without tripping.

9. Making pancakes...mine always taste so blah

10. Having good posture.
