Pinterest Challenge and a Ramble!!

I know we don't yet have many people following our little blog here, but maybe there are more lurking than I know about.
I do want to start doing a little challenge. The Pinterest Challenge set by the lovely Katie at Bower Power one of the great, inspiring blogs I follow. 

To be honest, I have had myself wondering who is going to read this. Who really wants to know all the nutso things that cross the mind of one person with no qualifications other than a Bachelor of Nursing? No photography quals, or a job as a make-up artist, hair stylist, interior designer. Not a mum, or a pet owner/lover. Just a young adult, newly married, with a few OCD tendencies, a knack for buying pretty things, a obsession with shoes and handbags. A girl who starts projects that seem like a great idea... but don't always finish them (read often not finished much to the dismay of her loved ones) A big user and lover of the internet and all the awesome it has to offer. So that has me wondering what to blog about. Sometimes I have ideas, then think that people don't want to read about that, or that another blog has done so much of a better job of it. Or what I have done isn't as big an flash as what other internetters have shown off. But now is the start of me not worrying (or rather trying not to) as this is my blog, my place to say my thing about anything. So that's what is coming up. Me. Rambling. Hehe.

To be honest, there are some exciting things coming up in the life of Anita. I am going on a big trip to Europe with Simon (that's my awesome husband), and that adventure will be blogged. I will give you photos, thoughts, and awesome tidbits of that joyride. Before that I will be attempting to get to know my beautiful camera intimately, so that I can be more confident with my photo snapping while we adventure. Plus so much more.

The shop over on Felt is an exciting thing too for me, and the friends I share that with. While as  yet I haven't sold anything I have crafted through that site, I wait hopeful that it will start to take off a little. I plan to (and really better) add more items to the store to entice people to peruse. 

I guess for now, this is a way to save Simon a little from my rambling, but a chance to challenge myself to do something new, try new thing... like the Pinterest Challenge, and keep a record of what is going on in my life. I never was too good at the diary idea, but I think that this is much more like me rambling to a friend (sometimes people reply!).

Hope a few people will join me along the way :D

For now I will be sharing things I have created, big and small, inspired or not by things seen, or pinned on Pinterest, or just by crazy ideas I've dreamed up. I'll share with you any major revelations about photography I learn. Whatever takes my fancy really. I will not always post pictures, I know they make posts more enticing for me to read, but not always. 

So this is what I am doing:

Yeah, I know it's not winter here, but we will forgive those who live in the other hemisphere.
