And Then There Is The Thing I've Always Wanted...

A Historic Home...

1910 Cottage, renovated in the 1970's, but needing work. Price likely too high if he won't come down, but right in the center of the town I wanted. Sometimes I think I want this house so badly I could cry, but money is an issue. And I think what it comes down to is...

What are you willing to give up to achieve your dreams?

This is something I am weighing right now.


Just look at these rounded windows. They don't make them like that anymore....



I want to sit inside and look out of these
windows at the passersby. I want to sit
near the windows reading, and spinning
my hand-dyed, hand-spun yarns. I want
to write my book by these window with
the natural light coming in around me.
I crave these windows in the most
unseemly way...


And then, and then...


A big dream of mine has always been to have a little historic cottage with a white picket fence...



The white picket fence around the little 1910
Blue House. I have also always loved blue
houses, always wanted one -- I am an artist,
I really need color -- AND my best friend,
just the day before I found this house --
hold onto your hat -- dreamt that I would
end up in a little blue house. This is a man
that dreams things and they come true...

So...

What am I willing to give up to achieve my dream?

What?
