Time for Pin The Tail on the Bloggy.. : ).

DebbieDoo's Blogging and Blabbing and Fox Hollow Cottage have once again teamed up to host a Pin The Tail on the Bloggy Party.  It's such a great idea, pinning posts to Pinterest.  : )..  After much thought, I decided to try something that I hadn't previously seen online.  After spending time at a few of our local craft stores, and venturing into a couple thrift stores, this is what I came up with.

 

 One thrift store basket for 75 cents.

Lol, the lady asked me if I was going to be

Little Red Riding Hood with it.

Yes.  Why, yes, I am..  : )..

Instead, I painted the basket green,

added my foliage and some grapes

and tossed in a clock for good measure.

One basket, multiple uses.

I have had these fall leaves laying around

for a bit, thought that they would work as well.

 

Alrighty, I am linking up to the Pin the Tail on the Bloggy

Party that is found here..  Debbie at DebbieDoo's and

Shannon from Fox Hollow Cottage have done so

much for new bloggers and crafters, and

we truly appreciate their support and exposure.

They both have such great websites with great ideas as well.  : )..

You should really check them out!

Outdoor ideas..

Yay..  It's my weekend because I have tomorrow off..  A three day break..  : )..  Yay..

Going to work around the house though.  Sure would love to put some of these items out back..

 

 What a great spot to sit and read while the puppies play..

 Blueberry Ripple Tulips..

I love those colors, such

a gorgeous flower!



And finally, a lovely, relaxing

water feature..  Until it makes me

need to go..  Lol..  : )..



I Heart It..

It's been a long week at work, glad to have made it to the weekend..

Feelin a little love for this Friday..  : )..

Ahh..  The weekend..

How I've missed you so..

Sooo sleepy..

Just not tonight..

Lol..

zzzz..

Some of my favorite Pinterest Pics..

Whew.. It's already Wednesday..

Not sure if it's me, or what, but this week is just flying by!  Not that I'm complaining.  At all.  It just seems like it's zipping right along.  Well, until I get to work.  Lol.  Or forget my iphone.  : )..  Anyway, here are some great Pinterest pics for the day.  Some of them might even end up being my screensaver at work this week.  Hmm. 

I've posted that last one before,

but it's soo nice, it begs to be posted again.

: )..  Alrighty.  Let's get this party started.

Pintervention Needed.. Lol..

Got to spend a nice, quiet, long day cruising through the Pinterest website.  I am addicted.  Lol.  Seriously.  I went over 3 GB on my iphone alone.  Mostly because of Pinterest.  Thankfully, I still have an unlimited data plan on my phone.  Whew.  Here were some great finds from today though.

All great ideas.  : )..

I love Pinterest.

Really.  Lol.

Pinterest is awesome.

I could spend alllll day there.

No..  Really..  All day..

I love me some Pinterest.

I think I definitely need a Pintervention.

Lol.  : )..

Finally Friday..

Since I had two four day weeks in a row, this five day week was loooong.  Whew.  Add to the fact that I've had more energy and couldn't get to sleep until close to midnight (starting with the hockey game night) and have been getting up around 6:30am, I'm starting to lose energy during the day.  I am going to have to adjust to being awake and change it to early in the day so that I can get to sleep at the right time again.  I'm more of an evening person, I'm usually dragging during mornings.  I'll have a weekend to get back on track.  Lol.  Maybe.  Doubtful.  I can hope though!

Been a little off track on the healthy diet as well, not a lot, but enough that I can tell.  That hasn't helped much.  I'm still feeling better, so that's a good thing.  One of my friends is doing the Right Size Smoothies and really seeing a change, so my little change, while it's a start, pales in comparison.  It's hard to stay good when the results are small.  I was in a store the other day and was listening to the radio, which had someone calling in about their weight loss as well.  They had lost over 20 pounds in three weeks.  Sheesh.  Again, small results.  It's not very motivational.  I am going to step it up though.  Two of my co-workers has just started her 30 day challenge, so hopefully that will help keep me going.  I might extend my time, which I had planned to do anyway.  I might just go ahead and reset my clock.  Add some extra excercise and see what I can accomplish.

Anyway, since it's Friday and I only got about 5 hours sleep last night, lol, here are some great Pinterest finds for this Friday mornin.  Let's get this day started.  yay.  lol.

 I can still have Paleo / gluten-free pizza. 

 : )..  Yay.

 Love that look.  I'll have to keep

an eye out at thrift stores..

Such a great look for a

dresser.  : )..

Alrighty.  yay.  Better get some

breakfast and get my day going for real.

I need some caffeine.

Or sleep.  Lol.

I can make it!

Maybe.  : )..

Pinterest Find.. : )..

I love Pinterest.  I finally figured out how to keep from losing all of my favorite links one day, instead of clicking on the pictures and having the entire page refresh and losing other links, if you PinIt, it will stay on your board.  Ahh.  I get it.  I used to click on the pages and then click on the links and save them to my favorites if I still liked the ideas, but my website folders were starting to bulge at the seams.  Hmm.  Pinning to a board that I have created stops all of that.  Awesome!  : )..

A lot of pinners post the same things.  Over and over and over.  I can't tell you how many times I have seen the raging debate as to whether one cute little animal is an owl or not.  It's perpetuated on both sides.  Some say it is.  Some say there's no way it's a baby owl!  Ohh the controversy!  Lol.  I get a little, eh, tired of waiting for something new to pop up.  The next big, creative, awe inspiring link.  Oooh.  Then, I slowly figured out, once you click on the initial link, there are more people who have boards that you can look at!  Ahhh!  Aha!  More pins!  Older pins!  New pins!  New ideas!  Awesome!  : )..

Every once in a while, I will find a pinner who has an abundance of pins and a few who have eh, a few boards.  Last night though?  I clicked on a link that I had pinned and found what could only be described as the "Mother Lode"!  Seriously.  Wow.  This person...  Has...  216 boards.  216 different boards, chocked fullllll of pins.  216.  Wow.  Looking at her information..  She has... 41,589 pins.  I could be here perusing her pins for days!  Weeks!  Months!  Awesome!  : )..

I looked at her hearts board and found this great, creative, awe inspiring craft idea..  Love it, love it, love it.  I will do this.  I will create something just like it with some kind of metal?  Something like a windchime or mobile?  I will, I will, I will!  Hopefully.  Lol.  Check it out.. 

Click Here for the link to her Heart board..

Click Here for her complete board collection..  : )..

I was checking out her "Beefcake" board until I realized..

DH was laying down on the couch with his head in full view

of the computer screen.  Umm.  Yeah.  No..  I wasn't checkin

out pictures of beefcake..  Nah..  Not me!  (do I sound innocent? lol)

Yummy!  Beefcake.  Is there any cake that is better than that?

I'm not so sure..  Noo.  Really.  I wasn't..  Alright.  I was lookin.  Lol.
