I like to watch the show "Shark Tank" but I always come away feeling like I should be more inventive.  It's all part of the 'Why didn't I think of that?' syndrome.  It's not that I can't create anything.  I can weave creative pieces (but there doesn't seem to be a huge market for scarves and placemats) and last weekend I designed a really impressive newspaper hat while helping with a booth at the "Taste of the Arts" festival. Admittedly, I looked silly wearing it but it was for a good cause.  Sadly though, nothing I 'invent' is anything anyone wants to buy, especially for big bucks.  Of course, the other aspect of this situation is that I'm retired and I really don't want to work that hard.  Ah well, I guess I'll add the 'if I invent something fabulous' dream to the 'if I win the lottery' and if I win the 'Publisher's Clearing House prize' dreams.  Happily, dreams are free.
