you may say i'm a dreamer

There are so many things I want to do.  I want to start building furniture.  I want to refinish furniture that other people have thrown out.  I want to throw paint on the wall.  I want to make beautiful curtains and pillows.  I really want to make a hexagon quilt.  And maybe a color block quilt as well.  I want to make all the wall art that I put on my walls.  I want to build build-ins (perhaps I should wait for when I actually live in my own house and not in my crazy landlord's house).  I want to go to thrift stores and find a $5 dress and make it a fabulous dress.  I want to turn a normal glass bottle into a piece of art.  I want to reupholster furniture.  I want to live the life I've always imagined.

I'm not cut out for a 9 to 5 sit at a desk job.  All those years ago, my dad was right: I need to find and do a job that I love, regardless of that whole silly money thing of course.
