This is a blog about me and my obsession. This obsession is......Pinterest. I love this naughty little (not so little anymore) website, social networking, and whatever else anyone wants to call it. I repin and repin til my heart is content and after a 6 week long everyday obsessively checking in on my fancy phone with the fancy app for this little obsessive site, I have repinned more than 700 pins to my boards on my profile.
I have been a member of Pinterest for a few months now and in the beginning I was reluctant to even browse this site. I knew in my heart it was another obsession along with keeping in touch with my friends who now seem to live in my computer through that other obsession called Facebook. It is a morning ritual that goes with my coffee and Good Morning America. Seeing what has been pinned for me to repin. Crafts, clothing, shoes (ahhhhhh, yes shoes), to food (which causes my stomach to ache for that goodness), DIY projects and so on for my virtual vision board to explode on my profile. "I can do that" or "I can make that" or "I can cook that" as much as I say I can, I can, I can, the question; will I?
I laid in bed pondering about my pins I have repinned so dearly to my profile boards and decided, I am going to do these crafty, cooking, DIY projects, along with many others and I should blog about it. Ha, I am so full of BS thinking I can do these pins that I totally talked myself out of it. It's a big commitment and a commitment to my readers when I start, are you nuts?? I am not a fantastic writer (not horrible either, if I say so myself). I am blunt and will say what is on my mind. Its hard for me to filter what I say in person doing it on the computer would be worse. After a few days and a few more hours put in to repinning, I said, "eff it, I am doing it and I am doing it proud." So here I am world, for you to read and share my crazy idea and hopefully inspire you to......oh I don't know, do something that nags at you to do. I don't mean the significant other telling you to take out the garbage. I mean that something you thought you could not do or would not be able to follow through with or even just scared, because right now I have doubts and fears of how this is going to work out but I am doing it. That's what is driving me.
Here is the plan:
I am going to take these wonderful pins I have diligently repinned to my profile on Pinterest and try to recreate them. I will cook one of those recipes or do one of those crafty things. I may even go out and try to recreate one of the outfits that I would love to have in my closet. I am going to try and do these things with a smaller budget and not spend crazy amounts of money. I may make things I won't keep and give to friends and family but I am going to try to do these crazy little pins. I gave myself goals to do one pin a week. If I do more than one, than it is bonus. I will post my outcomes and pictures (maybe video, ooooo that is scary) to show my crazy ways of doing these precious little, golden pins. Some of these I may have to adjust and I will let you know what I did. Some will probably take longer to do than a week but with those I will add that bonus little extra pins. It will be, learn as I go experience.
Now to give fair warning, I am not the most classy of ladies and I tend to say what is on my mind. I am not here to offend anyone but you have been warned. I cuss, have a glass of wine here and there. Maybe a rum drink or two. I'm not very tactful but I am someone who tries to inspire people to step out of their boxes and I am pretty blunt without the fluff. So, this blog will be without the fluff. Hope you have fun with this blog as I hope to have fun with it.
I also may have spelling errors that spell check missed and my punctuations may be wrong or off but I'm not trying to win the best blog award. Just trying to have fun. :)
