Pin It!
Hello, my lovely friends! Can you believe it's already June? Where the heck did May go? There was so much going on last month, it went like a blur. May was also the last full month of school for my little one--which meant, LOTS of school activities and events. Last week, I barely survived a field trip. This week, there was a musical play to go to, and an art exhibition later that evening (okay, I confess I skipped the exhibition. I already saw my daughter's artwork so there was no need to go back to school twice. Plus, I was starving. This mama's eating for two, ya know!)
Anyway, there's my excuse for being sporadic around the interwebz. Did I also mention that I've been napping two to three times a day lately? Can't help it, man. If we're driving somewhere that's longer than 10 minutes, I'm guaranteed to fall asleep in the car (I was in the passenger seat, people! I don't drive and snooze). Stopping by great-grandma's house to say hi? Yeah, I conked out on the sofa after giving hugs and air kisses *mwah mwah* Here's hoping I didn't snore...too loudly. Or if I did, they were all too polite to tell me.
Well, since I was forced to shun social media due to my "busy, busy, busy!" schedule (of naptimes and food breaks *snort*), it was only natural that I should turn to ANOTHER form of social media to avoid violent withdrawals. Eh? What's that? It doesn't follow logic? Whatev.
Introducing my latest addiction obsession entertainment:
Because, you know, I have all the time in the world...NOT! Actually, I downloaded the app on my iPhone, so while I was waiting at the clinic today for my prenatal appointment, BAM! Pinterest on the go. Pin this, pin that. Better than playing Angry Birds for the umpteenth time, I'm telling you.
But what I love about it is the ability it gives me to VISUALIZE stories.
I love Art. I love visuals. It's in my blood. I can't help it. I've been wanting to join Pinterest for-E-V-E-R but was too busy napping to ask for an invite. And now that I have it, I'm IN, I might very well go pin-crazy. You can kinda tell just by how many pins I've already managed to add to my board entitled: Inspiration for HIDDEN.
Yep.
Definitely pin-crazy.
Good thing there are no actual pins involved.
Are you on Pinterest, too? Or do you consider it another *gasp* waste of time?

I hate (read: love) Pinterest! What a freaking, delicious time suck!
I love your pins and I totally stole some yesterday. I try not to go there too much becasue it's a HUGE time suck for me, but still fun :)
I'm not on Pinterest. I have been avoiding it because I tend to have an addictive personality, and I don't have the time right now to spend on another social media site. Soon, though. Soon... :)
Pinterest is crazy addictive! I've been trying to avoid it because it's so easy to spend so much time there. But it's calling my name.
I already have too many internet things zapping my time (if that's possible--LOL) so I haven't joined Pinterest. :P
I am not on Pinterest. Your pins look great. Have a lovely weekend.
Great post. Better than the one I've just written on the same subject! I'm now a followers; I love the boards you've set up.
Thank you so much for your sweet post on my blog... I have been thinking about you, too!
And... yes.... it's official. Your post has officially inspired me to start my own Pininterest account. I've been putting it off forever, because I know my OCD and me are going to have way too much fun with it. But... damn. That's beautiful. I'm in.
