My ideal life changes as I get older.
Right now my ideal life would be to sell my home in MA move back to FL and be able to have the time to write and publish novels. I could work at night, spend the days with my kids and grandson on the beach, weather permiting, teach them during the day and disappear into fiction at night.

I am a simplifier married to the King of packratters. I would be happy to have rooms with absolutely nothing in them. I would just stand and admire the space.

I love my life, I have a great husband that runs our own business and treats me like an equal, I have kids that like to spend time with mum, I have great friends not many but wonderful to me, I do volunteer work, I work for hubby and I also have my own personal time, how much better can it get.
I used to be quiet and uncertain and once I married I really grew into being myself and opinions that mattered.
... and yes I think time changes us, and what we want out of life.

My Life? Hmm…? I’d say I’m finally getting on getting on track. It’s taken a lot of years to figure out where I want to be and then discovering 3 years ago I had a crafting talent I didn’t know I was capable of has led me in a whole different direction. My best advice is don’t be afraid to try something new. I’m now working a full time day job and am co owner of a crafting business out of our home. I make scented soy wax candles, beauty care products as well as making purses, windchimes, jewelry, always trying something new. We have a space in a gift and antique store where we sell our products and our goal over the next year is for me to start doing this full time and eventually opening our own store. We have learned over the years though to go by that old adage “Act In Haste, Repent At Leisure” so we are being cautious about jumping out there without having all our eggs in a row.

I don't know if I'm living my ideal life right now, but I know that I am much happier with where I am and where I'm going as opposed to three years ago.. I love my fiancee, family and friends and my job challenges me so I would say I'm in a good place

I am afraid I am not.

I would love to travel and see the whole world...

How do you live creatively?
I read a lot and watch lots of movies, and try to do things with my hands...

Are you into simplifying or packratting?
I packrat for 2 months, then one day I go crazy and throw everything away, just to start it all again...

Do you want to open a business?
In fact I do, I m thinking on starting an editor's office.

Plant a huge garden you can disappear into?
No, I like open spaces.

Publish a book?
I prefer to correct the books of others..

Play the piano?
I cant coordinate my hands...

Go to University?
I ve already gone, I am graduated in linguistics (philology) and I am thinking on preparing my doctorate.

Are you living your ideal life?
As Ive said, I spend to mauch time at home worried about the money to be living my ideal life. I need travels, and I need them soon.
