My Pinterest in the world


So, here we go.  I'm feeling really judgy.  And that usually comes when I'm feeling really guilty.  

I cannot wrap my mind around the amount of pictures of dresses and cakes and long lit tables and trendy owled bedrooms there are in the world.  

Who really cares? 

Me.

I subscribed (somehow, I honestly don't know how Pinterest works at all) to feeds that appealed to me. So I can't actually say anything.  

And through "pins" on Pinterest, I just found some mom blogs that talked about spending time bonding with your toddler, which I need to do.  

So that was inspiring. 

Why do I feel so undeniably queasy when I'm pinning away?

I just want to be inspired the old fashioned way.  By moms I know.  
By watching them pay attention to their toddlers.  By going to dinner parties under dangling lights.  
By baking muffins for friends.

I am sick of screens.  But they connect us, they link us to information that can inspire us to live better. But in the meanwhile, I forget to live.  I click, click, click.  

Save me from myself, internet world.  Oh wait, you can't.
