1. Why don’t you audition for a play? You may surprise yourself how good you are.You don’t have to be a thespian. You can get it all wrong, but at least you are doing it.

2. Why not put out a barrel outside your balcony or in your backyard and catch rainwater. There is no higher quality source of water available to us than rainwater. Unlike water captured in dams which requires an extensive treatment process to ensure a quality fit for human consumption, rainwater that is collected on roofs and stored appropriately represents a sustainable source of water ideal for use inside and outside the home. But, I digress. You can use it for indoor plants, your lawn, wash your hands, tools, muddy boots, trees, shrubs, garden, seedlings or cooling compost or rinsing out your compost bucket.

3. Why not place a mosquito net over the bed? You don’t need a four post bed. You can make your own canopy and hang it from a nail in the center of the wall and drape it over the bed. Make sure to wrap it in a way to cover up the nail. It looks so sexy and mosquitoes don’t stand a chance.

4. Have you ever sat with your family and pour over old photos? It can be so much fun! It is probably the only time that you may not fight for hours. But, let me remind you that this good feeling will pass. When they are not looking make sure to grab up the really embarrassing ones that they may post on Facebook behind your back. Trust me!

5.  Have you been sitting on an idea for years? One day I was going to make longer maxi-pads. I drew up the prototype and everything. I was so proud of myself, until I realized that it looked a lot like Depends! But, can you imagine if I was like about 50 years early, oh the money that I would have made. So don’t sit on your idea, cause if that guy did, there would be a bunch of geriatrics running around in loincloths!
