I have an awesome scrapbook room and I never go in there. We keep the door closed so it's "dog-free". I can't wait to be able to go in there again and sit down and do something creative. I want to make a space in there for Melon Man so he can be in there with me doing creative things too.
I can't wait to clean up our office and "finish" it with all of Melon Man's pictures in awesome black frames all around the room. I can't wait to paint the bookshelf and desk all black instead of the ugly gray and brown cheap-o office furniture look it has now.
I can't wait to roll out the 20 yards of gorgeous fabric I bought 5 years ago to make drapes for the living room.
I can't wait to go bike riding with my sweetie even if I look like a big Fat Alberta on a bike.
I can't wait to swim in our cheesy 8 foot wide blow-up pool this summer and just lay in the water like a big bloated whale.
At last, I will be doing something for ME. At last, I will have a smile back on my face. At last, that smile will be real and not just a smile that's there because of a pill.
You go girl!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for you to do all that too! Anytime you want to get crafty, and sew those curtain, paint the stuff for the office, or scrap, or craft, give me a call! Miss doing that stuff with ya! Things have been pretty crazy lately and hopefully slowing down. Miss you like crazy! I tried to say Hi the other day when we walked through while you were playing the piano in primary.
