Picking a Name

Well, I've been thinking about doing a blog for a little while, but what name will convey something of the essence of the blog.  My goal for this blog is not to be a diatribe about my life, but to be a place where I can pass on some of the knowledge I have gained.  In particular, I am very frustrated by all the excellent pins and blog posts that seem so awesome, or easy, but when I try them they just fail.  So I wanted to pass along that info to others so they don't have to try the ones that fail, and to point out the things I've found on the internet, and elsewhere, that are truly doable, or beneficial in some way.   My name is Julie, often shortened to Jules, and my interests are quite varied, or scattered.  So I'm going with Scattered Jewels.  I'm hoping that this blog will end up gathering some of the jewels that the internet and my life have to offer.  Enjoy!
