Miscellaneous Monday…NEW stuff i gotta share

cards

A VERY nice friend of mine tutored me on card-making last week…and guess what??? Now I MUST invest in this NEW gadget:

It’s VERY cool!  I just may get hooked on card making if it’s that easy to make plain paper turn into REALLY pretty paper!  Check out her etsy shop {HERE}!

As you may know…another crafty NEW interest of mine is Zentangle; and I found a great site with fabulous designs!  Check out All things tangled!

And lastly…if you’re like me…not really a runner, but would love to be a runner and need to build up endurance, check out: How to build endurance in 5 steps.  Good to know.  Now to actually implement the ideas.  Too bad I’d rather be out shooting than running.  Maybe I can run a bit…take a pic…run a bit….take a pic….run…. :o)

Have a great Monday!  Do or learn something NEW!

 

 

 

 

 

NEW culinary desires….and the question WHY!

WHY is it that we desire the VERY THING in which we can’t easily have at the moment?  With my kitchen torn apart, I current have no sink….no stove….no countertops etc.  Therefore what do you think my greatest desire is?  Yes, you guess it!…To be making all these delicious looking dishes from my Pinterest recipe board!

I remember when I had extreme sciatica and could barely walk.  When I saw people out jogging, I had a great desire to RUN that was almost overwhelming!  (If only I had that same burning desire now, I’d definitely be more physically fit)!

Why is life like this?  Does anyone know the answer?
