Confessions – 10 things I don’t have the guts to do.
I have been tagged by Ami at Puff Pieces and Megan at Writing Out loud for this. Some things came to mind straight away, others took a bit of time to think of. So, without further ado, here are 10 things that I don’t have the guts to do…. or don’t want to do!
1. Eat sushi. I just don’t like it, I just don’t want to. I don’t care how good for me it is, or how much everyone is eating it… even my son, it will not pass my lips. Ever.
2. Hook turns. I live in Melbourne. I drive in the city, easy. But, if I come to an intersection and want to turn onto a road, and I need to do a hook turn I will keep driving through the intersection… I just won’t do one… I don’t get them.
3. Snorkel or scuba dive. It scares me. It really does.
4. Eat seafood. At all. I hear you all cry WHAT! But ick. I ate a mussel once, I tried a prawn once. No thank you.
5. Get my tongue pierced. I love the way it looks, but I’m just too chicken!
6. Not colour my hair. I know one day I will need to stop… but I don’t want to think about it.
7. Deal with finances. Maths is not my strong point. I used to budget, sort bills etc… but now I leave it all to Hubby. I don’t like to deal with it.
8. Confrontation. I hate to have to deal with uncomfortable situations. I hate to have to confront people about anything, mainly if it is going to cause someone to be upset.
9. Deal with spiders. I have run through a house screaming and taking off clothes when I thought a spider was on me. I have got neighbours to get them out of the house. I wake Hubby in the middle of the night and point to minute ones on our double height ceiling and then make him get them so I can go back to sleep.
10. Leave the house without doing my hair. But really, this is a community service. No one needs to witness that, even in a hippy hills community!
So, there are my ten, and now I get to tag some more people – and they are…
Thea – Do I really Wanna Blog?
Taryn – Taryn Rucci
Emily - emlykd the strange
Jodie – Mummy Mayhem
Jade - She is Jade
Carly – Everyone Wants This
Brenda – Mummy Time


Oh, I hear you on the hook turns! I’ve never done one and don’t intend to. I will go and do a u-turn or go around the block rather than do one of them!

Number 7 is my downfall too. Though that will be changing come February! And number 10? I feel the same, even though I don’t usually do it!

Yet another reminder to do this list myself! You know how I feel about No.9 and spiders! EEEEEK!
BTW – we had our first Huntsman in the house the other night. He was near the ceiling, then I noticed he was gone. I was moving some stuff away from the hall table and AAAGH – he was on the lamp base! Fortunately, the vacuum was close by. He was a goner.

I knew as soon as I saw the title of this post that seafood would feature…. and spiders!

I could take your list add it to mine and have my top 19, I’d have to leave number 4 out because I LOVE seafood! You can imagine my disappointment when a friend pointed out once I’m pregnant no more oysters etc.
Not to worry it’ll be worth it!
Great list! x
