What skill do you have that you never use, or never hope to use?

I have the same problem, so I still make his shirts. All long sleeve. Have never been able to find a 15 1/2" x 36" sleeve in a store.

I have a degree in electronic engineering and did research and development for new things. I repaired teeny tiny electronic circuit boards but now they're "disposable." Also spent many years repairing small engines and running my own business. Now I'm disabled due to arthritis and a spinal injury, but I can still sew!

Oil painting, which I love. Started painting after taking some classes with my sister who is an amazing artist. Did some very nice portraits of my grandchildren but don't paint any more. Love, love, loved it! If you do not use these skills, you do lose them. At least I believe that I cannot do it anymore.

I could stare, and hold a specific position for a long time. Way way way back in my short modeling career, I used to be a live mannequin. I modeled clothes in department store windows. People would knock on the glass, wave, make faces, etc to try to get me to flinch. Now I don't think my old bones would allow it, and I'd probably fall asleep. Plus, somewhere, over time, that model body got lost!!
