I love it! I need to write my own, “I don’t…” list but it would be so long!

… and from the peels of laughter emminating from their cluttered office, one could hear her say, “I love you Wendy!”

All right, Smith. YOU’RE GOING DOWN!!!

On a less competitive note, I love the idea of an “I Don’t” list. I love that it’s OKAY not to do things. I will think on it and get back to you (unless getting back to you turns out to be something I don’t do, which, come to think of it, is very likely).

I don’t sew or do anything crafty except really amateurish scrapbooking. I definitely do write and love it. I cook, but I don’t bake (or make treats for my sisters either, but I might buy them some). I don’t make handouts for lessons (except Primary), but I do make lots of visual aids. Oh, and I don’t decorate the house all cute; even holidays are minimal.

Don’t let Karlyn read this post. She’ll make me get rid of my “wires, motors, and assorted bits of gutted VCRs” stash, on the ground that “I don’t”. I will… one day! Promise! So what if, by then, said stash covers the better part of a two-acre warehouse…

Great post! Many of our “I don’ts” are the same. I don’t scrapbook either (even though I have a ton of supplies that would say otherwise, haha), I don’t sew and am definitely not a seamstress (other than cross-stitching, but I don’t think that counts), and I don’t really craft much in general. I would like to be a crafter, I really would, but I’ve realized that I would much rather pay someone $5 for a gorgeous flower clip for my girls’ hair than pay a whole lot more for all the supplies to make them myself when I know they wouldn’t look half as good anyway.

I also don’t can my own food, I don’t do genealogy, and I don’t make my own baby food from scratch. Gosh, my list of don’ts is kind of long, isn’t it?

Oooooh, good idea! I’ve been getting rid of things lately, just trying to lessen the clutter around here. I don’t like clutter. At all. It’s funny, I’m trying to do so much that at the moment I don’t have a “I don’t” list. I need to make one.
