I’m a very confident person, but there are still several things that come to mind with this prompt. I guess the number one would be my legs. They're just way too big, and I don't think any amount of exercise and/or diet will make them petite. I'd love to feel great it short shorts, but it's not happening. That's just the way I'm made, unfortunately.

Wishful Wednesday: Job

"I wish..." I got paid $1 million a year to ____!
(job or career)

Well, I wish I got paid a million per year for my current job. I consider myself very lucky because I work in the industry I'd dreamed of since I was about 17. I always wanted to be a public relations professional, and while my current position is a little different than I envisioned for myself, I enjoy it a lot and think it suits me well.

But since I get to wish it, I suppose in fantasyland I'd get paid $1 million a year to be a part-time event coordinator. Organizing events is probably my favorite part of PR - I love being organized, checking big things off my to-do list, and always knowing the answer to "where does this go?" It's a great feeling to be at a community festival that you coordinated, with nothing to do but stand around because you were so prepared that everything's going perfectly! In my career I've planned festivals and celebrations for public agencies... I like those and think weddings would be a blast too.

With the rest of my time (since I'd be a part-time event coordinator), I'd be a mom. I love thinking about the day when James and I have kids, and all the fun things we'll do with them. Take them on picnics, play soccer, read books and go to the pumpkin patch... I want to have plenty of time to do these things, and being paid a million bucks to do it would just be icing on the cake, don't you think?

Wishful Wednesday: TV Star

Today’s Wishful Wednesday topic (from The Seattle Smiths) is:

“‘I wish’… I could be __________.”
(Name that TV star! Post a picture and tell us why)

**Wishful Wednesday is supposed to be something to get us through those lovely hump days. It may be a wish, a hope, a dream, or an aspiration – some topics may be fun and playful and others more insightful – but most importantly, it will give us an opportunity to get to know our fellow bloggers a little bit better, and see what makes each of us tick... **

Easy. I wish I could be Carrie Bradshaw. She’s so fabulous.

She’s confident, has a career doing what she loves, has strong relationships with great friends.

And she lives in New York City, where I think I’d fit right in. This apartment is calling my name!

I’ve always wanted to be Carrie because her life is so exciting and filled with great parties and friends.

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen every episode of Sex and the City, but I still watch the reruns on TBS sometimes.

Today’s Wishful Wednesday topic is 'I wish’... I could come home to ____ house everyday! (attach a picture and tell us why)

I absolutely love my neighborhood in Sacramento, Land Park. The houses are historic, unique and beautiful. The people are friendly. The trees are big and shady. I wish I owned a large house here to come home to everyday. Our one bedroom duplex is nice for now, but eventually I need more space and I wish we could currently afford this home:

Currently on the market for a mere $649,000.
