I Am A Pinterest Addict!

August 3, 2012 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 14 Comments

Hello and happy Friday! Are you ready for the weekend? I am going to be busy getting things ready for guests next week. That is if I can pull myself away from Pinterest. I think I am becoming an addict. 

I am sure that you are familiar with Pinterest; after all every blog one reads, including my own has a “Pin It” button, every magazine and most newspaper articles. There are little buttons at your fingertips to snag the “eye candy” that is everywhere!

Although I have had an account for some time it hasn’t been until recently that I have really started to pin. I have no idea what changed, perhaps using my Ipad? Who knows but I am a Pinning fiend some nights.

I have created boards of inspirational quotes.

Image ME!

Cute Pups,

and apparently over a 150 other subjects which I now have boards for. 

What frightens me is that I have a food board that almost every recipe contains either sugar

or cheese!

What about you? Do you Pin? Are you on Pinterest? If so, let me know and I will follow you. And if you want, you can click on the link above and see some of my obsessive pinning.

Have a great weekend! Enjoy a little time with your family and friends!

    I like pinterest, but have yet to succumb to the addiction (thankfully)! It is a great source and seems to have changed the way people look for pictures and inspiration…..going to have to check out your boards, looks like lots of gorgeousness!

    I do pin. I had a new follower follow me yesterday and he has very erotic photos on his site and I have contacted Pinterest to see if that is allowed. I have not heard back. I really think that should be removed.

    I adore your boards, and have to resist the temptation to repin everyone of your pins, it's definitely the iPad, it makes everything sooo very easy.
    Like you I have guests for the week so blogging and pinning will have to be squeezed in. Have a super weekend

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
