as i was doing some light digital "visiting" this a.m. i noticed that there are more than a few of us who are feeling various degrees of malaise. i myself have been haunted by the ghosts of depression just lately . . . i'm glad that i haven't been chased by the all out MONSTER that it can be but am definately feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, listless, tired, etc . . . etc . . . etc.
so in an effort to inject some sunshine into my own life i took some time to "build" a little pick-me-up photographic moment. i hope it helps put the "happy" back in your heart too~!!~even if only for a brief moment.
by the way: i may be breaching some blog etiquette by not contacting all of my blog contacts/friends on a daily or even a weekly basis . . . i really don't know as i'm new to all of this, but i guess you should all know that i do my best to visit you as often as i can and sometimes it works out to a lot but usually i barely keep my head above the proverbial water. so don't be offended by what might appear to be a lack of interest on my part because it's anything but that~!!~ and please do feel free to gently and honestly advise me on what i should and should not be doing better with my little slice of the internet pie. i am so always open to suggestions~!~
i would also appreciate whatever enlightenment anyone might be able to give me regarding comments that link back to a blog that is "empty" of anything except a website button/option/directional . . . recently i had a comment left that was of this nature. the comment was nice enough but upon linking back to the blog and hitting the next link to the website i just had a feeling that it was not going to be good (a bit like Alice in Wonderland with an "eat me or drink me" mysteriously posted about). low and behold i found myself facing some pornographic options that i did not happen to be in the mood for. i felt stupid because i had actually re-commented back to this person already and felt that i had to go back into my comments and do some deleting in order to protect my readers from becoming victims as well. now, if i somehow misunderstood this person's intentions, i am sorry. but i'm pretty sure that i didn't and was wondering if this sort of thing happened a lot in blogworld . . . again, any advice is welcome as i'm just a babe in these new woods and could really use it~!!~
I have never come across this! Then again I am fairly new to it all. I think you did the right thing and lets hope it doesn't happen again.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog by the way.
Love

Libby,
ReplyDeleteI love your happiness quote. A similar one that I love is "it takes great courage to be happy."
I don't know who said it but it has become my mantra.
As for the blogging questions, I'm just as new at this as you are so I am zero help!
thank you lyn and rhonda for your comments. i'm glad that i've made this a welcoming place to be for you and rhonda; i love that quote~!!~ and need to remember it myself~!!!~

I think you did the right thing about the inappropriate person. Also, I think your cards will turn out lovely. I like butterflies ;) I wonder what beautiful hand work you will put on? with anticipation.. Mary
ReplyDeleteDon't sweat the visits to others, the point of the blog is to have fun and do whatever you're up to that day. Sometimes it means you need time to yourself, sometimes it means you're busy making things and don't have time to blog or visit. That's OK. :)
ReplyDeleteAS for the comment, sounds like it was comment spam, don't feel bad for deleting it, and I hope whoever left it finds a better way to spend their time. :P
hi Pink Sky~!!~
