Wishes, Wants and Other Ramblings

I really really want a pair of purple and black striped tights. Don't ask me why, I just do...been wanting a pair for months, I might even just settle for purple if I can't find stripes. I want fingerless gloves to match, though I don't think I will be so lucky to find them. I want more bohemian/hippie style clothes. It's more my speed/style. I love a lot of the stuff Amy Lee (of Evanescence) and Pauly Perrette (she plays Abby on NCIS). I just don't know if I could pull of the look or not. But bohemian/hippie...hell yea I think I can.

I wish...wish...wish I could take these fabulous workshops: Lifebook, DEEP, 21 Secrets. I know there are a couple (several if I'm honest) that I would love to take too. But those are my top 3 wishes. I just can't afford them. I wish I could. But money is thin, jobs are slim to come by. But maybe one day, I will be able to take them.

I wish to get back to playing with my paints. I wish the fear gremlin would just be quiet. I know that it's my own inner voice just lying to me, saying I can't or I shouldn't. I know I need to quiet it myself, or ignore it and just paint!

I wish our troops a safe trip home. I am happy for them and their families that they are all getting to come home and stay home. That this so called war is over.

I was going to talk about picking a word for the new year, but I decide that's for another post.
