what to do, what to do....

Summer is quickly coming to an end. Molly will be returning to school in 5 weeks and I will be left with some extra time on my hands. Only small windows of "free time" of course but I am already envisioning what I could possibly do with them. There are a few things I would like to pursue - like woodworking or felting for example. Or things that I should pursue - like a first aid course or learning what's under the hood of my car. I did find this wonderful blog about making your own toddler bed (directions here) but I don't think Abbey is quite ready yet to make the transition from her crib so that project is on hold for the time being. Problem is the things I would like to do require a bigger time commitment than I am able to give so those will be reserved for evening classes. My house needs some fresh paint and my basement is in desperate need of a good purging and...oh the home improvement list goes on and on. I have thought about trying to focus on my portfolio and promoting my paper designs or do I find some other creative outlet?? I have so many things I want to do but I don't know where to start. Anyone want to steer me in the right direction? What to do, what to do...
