You obviously felt that I was right in some way for you erased my comment and continued to landblast the situation in your journal, and probably still are. And that gives me more satisfaction, than you could ever know.
Thank God the AOL block has finally worked, and this is the last email I can expect from this bitter, angry woman. I am sad that we had to go private again---my whole family is--but I need to protect us from this kind of negativity when we are still rather vulnerable. Bluinks does not seem to realize that blocking her comment and preventing her access to my family via my journal was not done out of fear that she is right that my innocuous pictures of Shelby are kiddie porn, but rather out of caution about letting self righteous loonies into our lives. Far from "landblasting" her I feel sad that she feels as a survivor of a sexual assault that she now has free rein to interfere with other people's lives, say mean things with impunity, and never admit that she hurt people. My children read this journal. They help write it. I am also a survivor, but I do try to be kind. Barring kindness, I try to be tolerant. But I was less than tolerant last night, and I do feel some regret about that. I just had a low tolerance for self righteous prigs at the time. I have to admit, I was less than kind to this woman. I think my knee jerk snotty response was not in the Quaker spirit, but frankly, my nerves are rubbed raw. I am feeling guilty that I brought the man who hurt Mandy into our lives, and I am feeling guilty I did not protect her at the hospital ER the other night. I didn't feel like making nice and being kind. I just wanted her to go away. So now, I will perform a mental banishing and "poof"!! hopefully she will be gone from our lives. Whenever you chose to leave the mainstream, you will attract people who find your lifestyle to be a direct challenge to what they believe in. So I need to sigh, and quit wanting to make the whole world love me and hold hands and sing Kumbaya while sharing a Pepsi under a full moon (dancing naked of course...hehehehe)

"I'd like to build the world a home....." This is your home no matter if you are private or public. You have the right to decide who enters. Thank you for inviting me in to spend some time with you and your family.

I've never quite understood the "I've managed to upset you, so there's obviously something wrong with YOU!" attitude. Too bad somebodies cup appears to be a couple of drops short of bone dry. Hopefully things will get better.Personally, I could go for holding hands and singing Kumbaya right about now. Sparkling cider might be good too. :-)

Wow! I am stunned at her comment. "You obviously felt that I was right..." wow. She is pretty convinced of herself and her eeeevil tactics. Don't worry about how you came across and whether or not it was in the Quaker way. Y'all have had a horrid year. I probably would have chewed her up and spit her out. I posted pictures of my kitchen. Take a look.

"I'd like to teach the world to sing...in perfect harmony......" sing it with me.... <g>
