Three days. She had done nothing but look at Pinterest for three days. Scrolling and scrolling. Scrolling past pasta and puppies, quilts and cakes, DIY and reclaimed wood. Picture after picture. But today she stopped, carefully zoomed in. “I can build that,” she whispered, “I can do it!” She went to her potting shed, another long discarded project, and set to work.
That is where Tom found her six hours later standing in a bed of terra cotta shards, she turned to him, wild-eyed, “Look, I made it myself!”
Tom stood, “Awww honey. Again? Lets get you some help.”
This is an accurate representation of me and Pinterest. Loved it, nice work 🙂

You’ve managed to convey such a huge back story about this couple in so few words! Brilliantly done.

You know, I have a Pinterest account but I rarely go there. I suspect I may end up like this poor woman, wild-eyed and manic 🙂

I have a love/hate relationship with it. You are smart to stay away… LOL
