I realize it can be a bit overwhelming, but my hard and fast rule is to set aside a certain time everyday and do my posts, my blog, instagram (unless I just see something wonderful to share) and then monitor on and off all day as I have time. It's just like anything else in life...you have to be the master. I hope to see you in October with ATP for drinks and dinner!

Those amusing but non-relevant posts will still be available later if one choses to devote the time to go back and read them. But the treasures are abundant and just at one's fingertips.

To make it understood by the average American, those porcelain rooms were the "home theater" of the 18th century! We stare at a flat screen, they stared at fabulous porcelain collections! I think, if I had to choose just one, it would be Sanssouci- Thanks for posting, and also for the recanting of the NYT piece on too much social media- ! Perhaps social media is our version of doing petit point by the fireside? <br /><br />Dean FarrisDean Farrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11651467227402717540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-82338843600704389562014-07-21T10:59:34.408-04:002014-07-21T10:59:34.408-04:00so glad you posted the images + hmmm will have to ...so glad you posted the images + hmmm will have to go to Germany. xxpeggybraswelldesign.compeggybraswellhttp://peggybraswelldesign.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-35941700019502104572014-07-21T09:06:00.406-04:002014-07-21T09:06:00.406-04:00Wow!
