			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="top" />I&#8217;m still trying to think through my Ideal Day. It isn&#8217;t easy because my Current Day keeps seeping in.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve actually gone back a bit to daydreaming about all the &#8220;other&#8221; options out there. I find myself in a position not unlike Julia Child (with the exception that I&#8217;m not a bored housewife, but someone in need of a viable income). But I still find myself asking the same question: <em>What am *I* going to do-o-oo?</em></p>
<p>Her husband gave a very simple reply that changed her life forever: <em>What do you enjoy?</em></p>
<p>My partner (almost unknowingly, really) did something very similar for me. I have an idea I&#8217;ve been kicking around in my head as randomly as a person walking kicks a can out in front of them. I finally kicked the thought out of my head and into words: <em>What do you think about . . . ?</em></p>
<p>And my wonderful, brilliant, thoughtful, supportive partner went and found information about it for me. Regardless of whether this is what I do, or whether it&#8217;s the equivalent of Julia making hats, the reply changed my life. </p>
<blockquote><p><em>I thought that only dreaming is never enough. I wanted to find something so you could see if it&#8217;s possible for you or not.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Can you even imagine someone knowing you so well? (This is the same person who reminded me the other day that I need time for myself too. ♥ ♥ ♥)</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t have to explain myself. I didn&#8217;t even have to say why or how or where or when. All I needed to say was, &#8220;What do you think about?&#8221; and suddenly I had someone handing me a telescope and saying, &#8220;Here. Reach for the stars.&#8221;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the explanation about this new can I&#8217;ve been kicking around. It&#8217;s something we can do together. It could really offer a viable income. We&#8217;re already in a booming market for the &#8220;high end&#8221; market and this would offer a &#8220;low to middle end&#8221; alternative. The location is ideal. And, yes, I can already think of a way to fit it into my Ideal Life. </p>
<p>What am *I* going to do?</p>
<blockquote><div align="center"><em>Only Dreaming is Never Enough<br />
Shoot for the Moon and Reach the Stars</em></div>
