Have Creativity...Need Project

I need something to do. I know, you're probably thinking that I'm blogging right now. No, I don't mean I need something to do right this instant! Just in general. I'm getting into a little rut, and I'm kinda feeling creative, but not exactly sure where to put this creativity. I want to take pictures...but it's really cold outside and the scenery is pretty bleak with it being winter. I have all kinds of supplies, but I'm not sure what I want to do. I'll get stuff out to start drawing, then not really feel like it (and I can't force myself to draw...I've tried it before and it's not my best work). Or I can't find a subject that I like. I have stuff to draw, paint, scrapbook, make cards...but I don't know what to do!
I know, I'm weird. It's one thing to want to do something and not have the means to do it, but I want to do something AND have the means to do it...I just don't know what to do! Then, of course, part of me wants to try something new, like knitting or cross-stitching or jewelry making, all of which I don't have the means to do. And Mike and I are trying to save money with the baby coming and all, so we don't have the means to get the means. Know what I mean?
I'd like to do something for the nursery, but the nursery isn't anywhere near a nursery yet (not sure when we're going to start on that...here soon, I hope). As far as scrapbooking goes...that goes back to the not being able to take pictures issue. And I don't have very many pictures already to scrapbook.
I have some ideas...like collaging picture frames (I have a bunch of scrapbook supplies and I just found more when I cleaned my room at mom and dad's...and you can do a lot with scrapbook supplies besides scrapbooking) or doing drawings to decorate the nursery.
Anyhoo...just a little vent. All I do, it seems, is work, come home, watch Ghost Whisperer, kiss Mike goodbye when he goes to work, and sleep. I'm addicted to Ghost Whisperer, but I'm almost done with it! (*sigh*) If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears...
