Have you ever felt like there was just too much stuff to accomplish in one lifetime and that you’ve no idea how to do it all? Now, wait–I don’t mean that like, “Wah-wah…so much to do! Wah…”
No, I’m talking about all of the incredible things that I want to learn and make, or make up…even. I actually get all giddy and weird when I look at patterns and pictures and instructions for things like that.
I’ve even made lists of everything and it turns out to be pages and pages long and I can’t seem to stop myself, or take any of it away.
I want to sew baby clothes and make peppermint soap and raise buff orphington chickens and write hat patterns and make cheddar cheese and milk a real goat and crochet bolsters and booties and purses and blankets and learn to quilt and make yogurt that tastes good and read every book on my shelves and make every single Christmas present because I want to not because I have to and grow potatoes and make compost and bake whole wheat bread every week and bottle salsa and…
hmmmm…
Maybe you get the point. Sometimes there’s just so much that I’d like to accomplish that I’m not sure, exactly what to pray for–
a really, really REALLY long life…
or a second pair of hands.
I’m thinking both.
PS~AND I’d like to pour my own lip balm and sprout wheat grass and grow seedless sweet green grapes and crochet a canopy for my bed and make real tamales and dry fruit leather and dye Easter eggs with spices and berries and learn homeopathic remedies…
too.

I can so relate Launi. Everyday has so many wonderful possibilities and the more I do and learn the more I want to do and learn. Pretty sure that’s one of the reasons we’re here and I hope to stay long enough to get it all in. Now back to my research paper on hidden messages in quilts. Life is good!
Sounds like you have a VERY fun To Do list! 🙂 I need to get more of my not so fun To Do list finished so I can move on to the fun stuff. 😉 Can’t wait to see what projects and adventures you choose next!
I love that first picture. Very inspiring 🙂
