Ten on Tuesday
November 17th, 2009 . by Joyce
Ten Things I Wish I Knew How to Do:
- Play classical guitar well
- Speak Spanish
- Knit
- Sing well
- Read Old Testament Hebrew
- Read New Testament Greek
- Speak German
- Scottish country dancing
- Know the constellations well
- Be more of a healing influence on others
Oh, what a coincidence, I was going to put up ‘Sing well’ on my list too.
As someone who attempted knitting only a year ago and am somewhat proficient at it now after a few messy starts, I encourage you to go buy some supplies and try your hand at it. =)
What a lovely list. I especially love number ten

great list!
i wish i could learn other languages, too!
have a great day!
come and visit my Ten on Tuesday if you have the time!

I loved your post. I too would love to read Hebrew. I also want to learn sign language and be able to use it proficiently. Have a lovely day!
Great list! I’d like to sing well too (and possibly knit). The others are far too ambitious for me.

Hi Joyce;
Your list is a lot like David’s! He’s done 1st year greek four times and he’s been teaching himself German for about 2 years now. It kind of gets on my nerves at times because he’s always speaking german to me and then forgetting to translate. Yes, I know I should try learning it too but that isn’t one of my interests. He also spends his evenings playing his guitar, not classical but a variety and he’s been writing his own songs which we do enjoy singing but like you we’d both love to have better singing voices! It’s great to see Sarah with her baby thanks for sharing.
Hi Joyce, it would be lovely if you could speak German.
I liked this week’s question as well.
If we were still living in our hometown I would send my little girl to Scottish dancing classes, if they still have them. I think they call it Highland Dancing there.
I agree with what Maria says. Once you have your cast on row on, maybe someone could do that, it is not so hard and very forgiving.
My eldest son said he learnt some more Japanese characters at his class this week.
Wonderful list! I have never heard of Scottish country dancing,I’m gonna have to whip out the ol Google tool and have a gander. =)
Ithought about singing as well,but since I am too shy to use it in public,it would be a waste. lol!
Have a wonderful Thursday!!
Thanks for dropping by my blog and leaving your comment…we do have a few in common! We should aim to do this again in a year and be able to at least take knitting off our lists! : ) Have a great day!
I’m with you on the OT and NT. We are really working through the books right now, and I am constantly wishing I didn’t have to go to a concordance or something to get the original. Would be nice to know it – however, I KNOW that is not going to happen in this lifetime!
I love your list. i really wish I could speak one other language well. I know a little french, but that’s all.
