I posted dozens of post it notes all over my kitchen.....(in perfect block lettering, lined up perfectly by color and subject, and centered the first time around, without the use of a ruler.)
I could sketch fabulously. Spent an hour with a tiny notebook and and someone's all silver Harley-Davidson. ( Caught my eye in a parking lot......sketched it in detail over 7 notebook pages right down to the type of screw head)
Honestly, heaven only knows what other finely honed skills I developed. These are the ones that immediatly come to mind.

The penmanship thing....when I'm feeling more manic my penmanship is absolutely BEAUTIFUL but when I hit the slumps it goes down the crapper. When I'm manic I do needlepoint&counted cross stich&it looks gorgeous(when I was younger I wasn't intersted in these things). When I'm down, I cant focus on needlepoint or cross stitch or hardly anything else for that matter. Mania makes me want to clean&organize&make everything look nice. I actually use qtips to dust crevices in my coffee table! I scrub the floors on my hands&knees&obsess over gettin every centimeter spotless
