I'll admit it...

Pinterest is taking over my life.  It was my sister who got me started.  She's entirely to blame.  I have wasted countless hours online, "pinning" all sorts of various (un)important things collected on Boards.  I have one for my art.  I have one for other people's art.  I have one for recipes.  I have one for "In the Studio".  It doesn't end there...oh no!  I have one "For the Home".  One for "Outside the Home".  Another for "Places I'd like to go".  One called "Reminders" that remind me of things. I have one for favorite places I've been.  I've created an entire board alone for what I have termed "Dessert Recipes" but has honestly become much more like an homage to chocolate cake.  And it goes on and on and on...

I'm not sure why I've become so addicted, I don't really participate much in social media, except to do a weekly update on my Facebook fan page and Twitter.  To put it in perspective, as I type this, I have 15 tweets...and over 500 pins! Perhaps an intervention is the only recourse? Or maybe I am not alone and you can follow me and I will follow you - that way we can support each other in our addiction!

That was a hilarious post. And I totally understand. I have tons of notebooks filled with that sort of thing.

An online place to put things would be so much better....and easier to find stuff.

What's wrong with an homage to chocolate cake? Sounds good to me!

Oh my goodness, if only I could stop! I'm afraid it's only gotten worse - I'm now up to 854 pins! I think Derek is feeling neglected...I spend so much time pinning...

I too used to keep inspiration kind of notebooks with different ideas and clippings. But now I have Pinterest. And apparently that's all I need in life, lol.
