Proficiently Proficient

If I could be instantly proficient at something... well, the list is long. Speaking French and playing piano would be on my list for sure. But various family members have said the same things so I am going to try and come up with a new one.

Ok, I think I would have to stick with instruments on this one. I want to learn to play a stringed instrument ie guitar, mandolin or fiddle. If I could be instantly proficient at one of these things Matt and I could truly start a band. And then I could do what I love with the man I love. Sounds like a good plan to me.

What almost always gives me goosebumps

Beautiful Music. It doesn't matter what genre. If a song is beautiful sounding in any way I will get chills.

Inspiring quotes or speeches. I can be reading or hearing powerful words and they will give me goosebumps. Every. Single. Time.

Heartfelt stories. Anytime I hear an inspiring story I cry and get chills.

When I feel the Spirit, I get chills.

My least favorite thing to do

Fold laundry. I don't mind doing laundry but I haaaate folding it. I also hate emptying the dishwasher. But I hate it when those two things are left undone so I do them. A lot. Unfortunately my husband also hates those things so if I don't do them, they don't get done. I am almost 100% sure that I will have to continue to do both of these things throughout my lifetime. At least until my children are old enough to make them do it. Ha!

My Superpower and Name

Hmmmm, ok I have a few weeks of catching up to do. I had to go and give birth and that has kept me pretty busy for the last few weeks. 

So, if I could have a superpower, it would probably be... (let me just say that I have been sitting here staring at the screen for the last 10 minutes because I can't think of anything.) My first answer would be the ability to apparate but my mom and sister already both said that too. So, in the interest of being unique, I am going to say that my superpower would be to fly. Who doesn't dream about what it would be like to fly? I have some very realistic and vivid dreams about flying and even though I am afraid of heights, I never am when I am flying. I don't understand why we weren't given this ability. If I were creating the universe I would make it so my people could fly. Just saying.

So, my name would be Magnificent. Call me Mags for short. Who said your name had to make sense?
