Happy me announcement

So, I am driving to Denton tomorrow to pick up something that will set me on a little journey towards doing something I have said for years that I wished I had done.  Are you ready?  Piano lessons!  PIANO LESSONS!!!  I mean, I am not sure how easy it is to teach this old gal new tricks, but I believe that Miss Marianne Paredes may just be the old gal for the job.  She is incredible.  I played when I was a kid and didn't pursue it.  I remember that teacher as being this wonderful little old lady, though as I am typing this I am thinking that she was likely all of 45 and not old at all.  Time does change perspective doesn't it?  So, after that I wished that I had been more diligent in that effort, but like most things in my life, I let it slip onto the pile of things of withering but once brilliant ideas and goals.  That pile is continuing to get bigger and bigger.  What is on that pile you might ask?  Well, let's see:  I wanted to dance when I was a kid, and would still love to but there is a rod in my back that says otherwise.  I have notebooks full of business ideas and story lines for scripts, literally stacked in dusty storage containers.  One of the businesses was a coffee shop/ bookstore...Barnes and Noble sort of stole my thunder on that one.  The scripts range from simple ideas on paper to full blown character lists and plot lines to page after page of dialogue...not necessarily good, but there.  I wanted to play the guitar.  I remember that Larry bought one for me about ten years ago that I swore I would practice...didn't happen.  Obviously there is the acting thing.  Ah the acting thing.  I have not fully let that go yet, but I suspect that it will be many years before I get to play that dream again.  Oh, I want to be in incredible shape...I mean, Sheryl Crow, rock hard, drop your jaw in sheer envy, shouldn't look that good after 4 kids amazing.  Now, history has shown that I am likely capable of any and all of these little ambitions.  I have just not found the motivation and drive, or as Larry would say, be proactive and diligent enough to make any of it happen.  Why is that?  I don't think that I am exactly lazy...I mean, maybe a little.  I do hate to push to the point that it starts to make me crazy.  I would love your wisdom on this one as I know that many of you have kids and work and have amazing bodies and talents that you readily share with us.  I imagine myself doing all of these things and more, and then things get really fuzzy, as if I am watching someone else doing it...and then I realize that I am watching "American Idol".  Go figure.
