I've been warned that it is highly addictive.<br />Kind of like hollandaise sauce....for most of my life, I never tried eggs benny because I was worried that I would love the sauce so much, I would crave it all the time. And one day, not to long ago, I caved... and tried it. And although I now suffer from cravings, my world is a much more wonderfully satisfying place now that I know what hollandaise tastes like. mmmm.<br />But I'm not so sure about the pinterest thing...it could be dangerous.Jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04803308252202460126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355157437969935487.post-15164218999251950022011-10-22T19:14:31.124-05:002011-10-22T19:14:31.124-05:00I like your list, Relyn.

And I'm so enjoying your Pinterest boards.<br /><br />When I'm feeling blue, I usually treat myself to a latte, call a good friend, and browse through etsy.

His most dreaded is, "Did you enhance that?". People sometimes say these things that seem rude, but they are usually completely sincere (I know it seems weird). He has a few scripted answers. But.... Some are envious of talent, and feel a need to say something that's sort of a put down or rude. Jim is at his best when he just answers in a friendly way, and doesn't respond with a comeback. I think that gets the message across. One either know it's a nicely done piece or they don't, so it doesnt really matter. And, thanks for this post because due to post surgery pain I'm sleep deprived today and feeling blue. I wasn't going to go to my art class so I could rest, but now I'm going to drink more coffee and go create!! Seriously, thanks!<br />Miss you......xodulcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03968739115493352579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355157437969935487.post-30388514685955164662011-10-19T18:58:22.435-05:002011-10-19T18:58:22.435-05:00You, my Dear, are entitled to a little whining as ...You, my Dear, are entitled to a little whining as upbeat as you ALWAYS are on this blog and for as good as you make people feel! On low days, I go back to bed with my book (which is where I am now) but I love the idea of coming up with a few new ideas (lists!) for the next time. Will have to use some of these ideas. YouTube is a good place to start for something funny. And always love the blessings list. That always helps. Ok, off to read now.

When I am blue, I watch stuff on You Tube (including I love Lucy) -- my latest fav is Just Shoot Me, browse LinkedIn and blogs - including yours, go for a walk -- if I can.
