Love your list Jen! Another way to approach things is to cut out pics and put them on a board. Everything you like, want in your life etc. Gets one to 'see' it.

Hey! I think I should take my own advice!
I actually PMed him just before this . Perhaps he can answer some questions for me.

I like interior design, but it's not where my interests really lie. I really want to be going more that is hands on, I am fascinated watching the contractor and all the stuff he can do... but that's not quite what I want either. I want to find a balance that allows me to be really involved in the onsite type of stuff, including design and even some of the physical work when needed. Is this a builder maybe? I just don't know.

Daniel, if you want to do interior design you should seriously think about that. I don't know if that's a good job for someone living in NY (or at there already too many of them?)... but around here, I think that people struggle to find a good designer.

I love the idea of cutting out pictures and just putting them up as reminders, I think I should try to do that.
