This would be like the rhythm gymnastics of DDO (Domestic Duty Olympics)!  Absolutely NO offense Mon--you know I think that's freakin awesome.  And so does every single man in COJ

Hahaha!  Yeah, pretty much no one thinks about rhythmic gymnastics as a sport... so the sewing thing would fit right in!

I did forget one thing though - I'm freakin' AWESOME at putting together Ikea stuff.  And I actually also LIKE putting it together. Weird, I know.  




I'm thankful for that. Because I hate putting Ikea stuff together. I spend three hours saying `FUUUUDGE!' over and over. And `WTF language are these instructions in!? You'd think the Dutchlandinavianish people would learn English!' and such.

Cooking - both the planned out Holiday dinners, and toss seamingly random ingredients together to make dinner on the fly. And composting.I don't thinks this is quite a domestic duty, but using a chuckits to throw the ball for the dog - me and the hound could totally medal in both distance and style.Mr. Booty: Dish washing and floor sweeping.

So full of win--I want an address so I can send you your medal.  Kickazz.

 

Haha! It'll cost you!  Shipping to China is $$$.   Working for an Engine company has paid off like this several times.   Access to the test fleet for personal use is a major perk!

Your training schedule should be based completely on the hours you have available to train, not necessarily on the number of hours you "need" to train.
