So for months people have been telling me I need to join Pinterest. “Laura, it’s so up your alley.” “You’re going to love it.” etc. etc. I resisted because what self respecting Facebook-quitter replaces it with another social media time sucker?
Well, that was before I checked it out and got sucked into the creative force of good ideas. The funny part about Pinterest is that for the most part you pin the unattainable: you know some Olympian’s 16 pack and that million dollar Pottery Barn kitchen. But what I love most about it is the source it provides of good ideas that you may actually be able to pull off. I’ve found and tried some amazing recipes for my super picky family that are actually healthy. Pinterest ideas inspired a garage clean-up that seriously makes me happy every day. There’s something about the rarity of a clean garage that just makes the Type A in me ridiculously giddy. We’re even fixing up the basement. It’s been a comical project with the hubby since it’s like the blind leading the blind. If DIY Home Improvement had been a school subject, we’d have both failed for sure. But, dare I say, it’s actually looking better? Perhaps there may even be a playroom down there in the future?
I also love the feel good sappiness you can find on Pinterest. Whether it be weight loss inspiration or just plain old romance, I leave feeling inspired with a good dose of the super sweet.
Check out what’s been inspiring me… And if you can stand it, come find me: BetterEvents.
