Well, Happy Arizona's Birthday to everyone!
Here's the deal: the Hubs long ago decided to boycott Valentine's Day. Instead, we celebrate the day Arizona joined the States. I don't get candy, valentines, or jewelry, which is fine, because I don't eat sugar, don't save cards, and have all the jewelry I need. But once in a while, on a Tuesday of no particular significance,
he brings me flowers. It's a better surprise then anyway.
I bit the bullet and...got on Pinterest. Holy cow. I can't figure out which was better...avoiding it or joining it. Within minutes of pinning Phil's leather, it was being repinned all over the place. I think that's pretty cool. But I can see how it can become a Time Vampire. The rationale for the hours lost today was the Setting Up...of course there's a little curve there, right? So I have boards, but they're a little sparse. The link is on the left under Contact Info, if you want to see or follow any boards. I have lots to explore there (and lots of you to find and follow), but have to budget time as I go.
In the meantime, I have walnut ink to package, dolls to work on, a house to clean, and oh, did I mention we're buying another rent house?
In a month there will a Rehab to manage and a house to rent out. That's cool too, because once we can replace the hubby's day job $$$ with rents, he can do the real estate while I do the dolls and the homemaking. Seems like a pretty good set up to me.
Temptation, temptation...I just can't take on something else that eats up time...very curious, though!
ReplyDeleteHappy Arizona's Birthday! =)
ReplyDeleteWe don't do Valentine's Day in our home either, my husbands rationale is that he is NOT going to be told when to be romantic....he usually get's me flowers or something about a week after Valentine's.
Pinterest is a definite time sucker, but there's just so much great stuff on there!
I have avoided Pinterest for the time being, simply because I can see me getting sucked in big time, and nothing else happening. I'm sure it's really wonderful, because everyone keeps telling me they love it - lol!
ReplyDeleteHave fun! xox
I'm on pinterest too. It freaks me out when I pin something and it gets snapped up right away. I posted something made with a clothspin and it immediately got 260 pins and 85 likes in literally seconds...eeek! I watched the notices come rolling into my email one after the other...so strange:)
ReplyDeleteHi Jan, Pinterest can be very addicting...I know this for a fact! You will find you'll get new blog followers from there though. Enjoy pinning.
