I realized today that I have another category - "I Actually Accomplished This".
One of the things I wanted to do and "Actually Accomplished" many years ago when I was a new mom was...create a playful wall painting for my little girls' room. (Please don't judge me about the crib - this was early 1980s and that's what we had "way back" then.)
How I did it...1st - I painted the wall "sky blue" for the background. 2nd - I'm not an artist so I drew the best tree I could and then used pages from a coloring book for the Bird and Bunny. 3rd - I traced the animals onto the wall with a pencil.
Last - the fun really began as I painted each animal (as well as the tree itself) to bring them to "life".
I chose these animals because I loved the bright liveliness of their eyes.

So - in the midst of all the things I haven't accomplished - it sure was good to re-group and remember something that
"I Actually Accomplished".
Thanks for visiting today. Reia
