Ambition

Am-bi-tion
noun
A strong desire to do or achieve something, typically requiring achievement or hard work

I am craving a project. I'm craving to get my hands dirty and do something new. There are so many hobbies I want to get better at. And for some reason, I feel like I need to do them all right now. I think what started it was this amazing website called Young House Love. (younghouselove.com). It's about a couple who bought a 50 year old house and have made it their project to renovate it by themselves. It made me want to do home projects. My mental to-do list is running wild. It ranges from repainting a stool I bought a garage sale to knocking a hole in our bedroom wall and creating a second closet.

Another area I want to embark in is sewing. I want to make curtains, pillows, blankets, quilts, and other projects. I've always wanted to do this but for some reason right now it is bursting out of me.

Another hobby: cooking. As I was bobbing up and down on the elliptical machine today, I became fascinated with the Rachel Rae show. I want to know how to use spices, oils, seasonings, herbs, and more. I just wish I knew how!

Another one: Gardening. I can't wait till Spring. My dad has said he is going to help me start a garden in our back yard. I have no clue how to even start but I can't wait to reap the benefits. I just want to go outside right now and start.

I'm just feeling ambitious! Maybe I've been cooped up inside too long. Maybe God is slowly turning me into a house wife. Maybe I'm simply wanting to feel productive. Whatever it is, it's about to burst inside of me if I don't get going on something. Stay tuned for future projects.
