No, it's not Gymnastics (don't think I won't try that though). However, I have put great thought to this, and if this mothering thing doesn't work out, I will probably try my hand at Interior Design. Yes, I do love to cook and bake, and I'm good at it, but that's a LOT of work for a minimal amount of money. I think putting my brain to work would benefit EVERYONE. The only downside to working my brain is all the smoke it creates from years of neglect.
Interior design runs in my family. My mother's mother was an interior designer by profession. Her specialty was commercial venues in Georgetown, Washington, D.C. From what I know, she was high society and very respected for her work.
My mother also tried her hand at interior design around our family home. Furniture, pictures, and even walls were moved to reflect current styles in design. As a child, it was frustrating to see things constantly changing, but as an adult, I look back and love that she took the time and effort to make our house a home.
I have also tried to create particular looks with the homes in which I have lived. In fact, I did it so much, that I'm fairly certain the walls of my last home were about two inches thick from layers of paint. I LOVE to paint. I love to design. And I love doing it myself (with help). I would love to buy fixer uppers or investment properties, just for the fun of renovating and making them beautiful.
Here is some of the stuff I have designed over the past few years.
