in one not-so-quick jump. The Christmas holidays are over and the goal is to put away the decorations and clear the space again. Naturally we pretty well got no snow until the day I took the tree down. Not complaining though - no snow equals no ice and I'm still upright when walking which is all that counts. Still sorting and donating decos though. Looks like I'm pretty well only keeping my traditional and nothing modern. Gotta admit I do love it. Nothing like sitting, on a chilly winter night, in front of a fake fireplace, eating cinnamon buns, watching "Red Dwarf"on Netflix on the tv next to the sparkly Christmas tree while a cat hawks up furball which, thankfully, does not sparkle. My life is full.
Now let's consider Pinterest which is my new obsession. It is so full of things to see I now have to set a timer for 30 minutes to prevent me from spending three hours perusing all the wonders the internet puts in my face. Instructions for just about everything you might be interested in can be found. I'm closing on 2000 pins and counting. Is this good for me? Am I allowing other people to dictate, albeit not their intention or fault, my creativity? I shall spend more time on doing things for myself and then post them so others can benefit from my wonderfulness. Or not.
"Thoughts become things." I know this is true. I am going to believe and use it. Never too late for a new point of view. I look back and realize the life I have lived is the life I made. The one time I used the "Secret", not knowing it existed, I got just what I asked for but, like the monkey's paw theory, I didn't realize it can all be in the details and my ideal man turned out to be my beloved dog, Chucky, and to tell you the truth my forgetting to mention human in the list was a great thing. :D
