Does anybody read this?

I don't really need to write this for MY reference and it doesn't pay to put a myspace blog about it since none of those girls sew. I didn't cut out the skirt yesterday, tho' I came THIS close. I consulted the Ren Forum of sewing helpers. I just don't feel convinced of this floral pattern is okay and I don't like the Florentine bodice. I WANT THE VENETIAN FRONT LACE LONG POINTY KIND. and if that means I have to find new fabric then so be it.
Here's an idea:
If I do get this job, I'll have money to buy new material. I can use the present material for a 1800's dress and start work now on the Venetian bodice using the other two fabrics I bought for sleeves and underskirt. Then when I have the money, I will buy a fabric that is solid or complimentary to the bodice.
I can hear you, haven't you ever bought a shirt before because you liked it and then never were able to find pants to match the color afterward? Yes, I have. and yet I'm willing to do this. I have to
DO something.
of course the other thought is:
When ever I have problem and feel the need to do. Be.
This moment is all I have. I am present in this moment and THIS is my inner purpose. To live THIS moment to the fullest. What does this mean?
It means there is NO URGENCY. No thing needs to be done. I am doing what needs to be done, right now. Breathe deep. Exhale.
My daughter is coming in two days. I can't begin a project at all right now. I will use this time to clean my sewing room where she will sleep. The solution will appear when I am ready.
No worries.
Maybe I did need to write this for myself. hahahahaa
