26 reasons why I love Thursday

1. I just don't think that Thursday gets enough love.

2. I like the word Thursday. 

3. I think I'm going to name a cat Thursday someday. 

4. #3 had nothing to do with this list. 

5. I got a Tim Hortons coffee on my lunch today. Cue much needed caffeine boost. 

5. I'm wearing one of my favorite shirts today. It's red and black plaid in a cozy polar fleece - I call it my girly-logger sweater :)

7. I heard one of my new favorite songs on the radio on the way to work this morning - totally lifted me up!

8. I'm going to do my laundry tomorrow. Clean underwear is a good thing.

9. There are over 110 repins on this Pinterest item - it wasn't even my original idea and yet I feel so famous. 

10. My boots are like wearing slippers. That can go out in the snow.

11.  The Hunger Games movie comes out tomorrow.    SO. EXCITED.

12. I could really just stop the list there. But then again, it could end up being really lame and all my   expectations dashed to pieces...

13. Someone called my cellphone today and I got to hear my ringtone. Happiness.

14. It didn't snow more today.

15. I skipped #6 and did #5 twice...did you notice?

16. Tomorrow is payday. Huzzah

17. I saw another gray hair this morning.

18. I don't really love that about today but I needed to fill up a spot.

19. #18 has nothing to do with this list either.

20. I had a cookie today. It kinda made me feel better about the whole gray hair thing.

21. There are skeins of yarn in my closet calling out to be used up... patience...Friday is coming.

22. I'm going to sleep in tomorrow.

23. Tomorrow is Friday.

24. I can't think of 26 things.

25.  The end.

Why I Love Pinterest

Well, it's one of the reasons I love Pinterest . I like DIY stuff and it's chock full of DIY ideas. *does anyone else feel like saying 'DIY' makes them feel kind of crunchy and urban and so chic and hip-with-it? 'cause I do...* 

I found a picture of this bracelet on Pinterest and I LOVED it. 

So very much. 

And I though to myself  "Hey! I could totally do that!". 

And so after a few weeks, I dragged  myself to the craft store (it was hard really, but I managed), bought the beeds and totally did it. And I'm pretty pleased with the results. 

 Granted, I had a different kind of lace and it was a trial and error sort of project but it worked! I'm working on a second one for my sister, different kind of lace and pattern. I'm kind of thinking about adding a tutorial for making one. 


I love that Pinterest has all kinds of ideas that  make me feel like I can actually DO them.
