"What creative ways are there to
start saying "yes" to yourself?"

Hehe...my problem is trying to say "no" occasionally.:) I'm living the
creative life full-on, believe me. What I crave though, is a formal
place to study and be surrounded by artists. I am checking into the
local college for just a class here and there...we also have a really
nice art center for "continuing education" type stuff.

I've been in love with RISD since High School and would have attended
if my folks had been more supportive financially. It's not a huge
priority right now......I just lust after it occasionally.

RISD as in Rhode Island School of Design RISD? The RISD that's less
than 2 hours from us? Whee doggie that'd be cool - but their
homeschooling laws in Rhode Island are the pits (one of the few
remaining 'approval' states - though it is district by district and
some basically want notification and nothing else). BUT you could live
over the border here in CT and not have to file anything...

Yeah...we're here in TN for a very, very long time...probably for life
as far as I'm concerned. That doesn't negate taking several months and
traveling elsewhere though.:) We've got plans. But babies need to grow
older first.
