Pinterest was a bit overwhelming for me at first and if you look at my boards now, they're pretty bare compared to most folks.  But I knew if I just started pinning things left and right, things I thought were neat but had no prospect for me or my home, it would be overwhelming and entice me into a new guilt that I *should* be doing these things I've pinned.  Not to mention, it would be a complete time waster for me...not what I need right now.  BUT I've been able to limit my pinning to things that actually make sense for me and that I can realistically do and so Pinterest is good.  Joining up with Sarah and Pam this morning for their 'Pinning It Down' link up where we get the motivation to actually DO some of those things we've pinned!
