When I was seven, Grandma forced me to sit down and learn how to sew. I knew I'd hate it.
I still hate it. But I have to grudgingly confess that it's an extremely handy skill to have, and I'm reluctantly glad that she taught me. (Not as much fun as when she got me into s'mores and 'I Love Lucy', but you can't have everything.)
Also, does decorating for Christmas count as doing something crafty? Because Mom and I got started today. We have two trees, and one of them is baking-themed; it's already almost 100% done. Tomorrow, it's my job to set up and decorate the other one. Also, yesterday I redid my phone and laptop desktops to Christmas themes.
