There was a day when I felt like I was wasting time.
I felt like my days were filled with things that didn’t bring much fulfillment or accomplishment. TV, computer... you know, those mind numbing activities.
Then I decided it was time to make a change.
It was time to start some things I have wanted to do, but had put on the back burner, to do some things that bring a little more enjoyment and fulfillment.
So I summoned my inner Martha Stewart, my Paula Deen, and my deeply burried Jane Austin.
So I finished painting and recovering this lamp.
I learned to sew this apron from the Domestic Queen. (My Mom)
And started cooking recipes from currently my favorite cookbook.
Along with reading some books i’ve been meaning to dip into instead of watching TV, or listening to conference talks or Podcasts like “This American Life” instead of the radio.
