Or is it? It is here. Though the temps are a bit chilly the sky is bright blue and the sun is shinning. The sounds of lawn mowers can be heard and the sweet bitter smell of fresh cut grass is filling my house. Leaves on the trees are waving in the breeze. Yes, I did say leaves. We have bright green leaves! YEAH! The street out front is buzzing with traffic. Last minute errands before game 5 starts. :::crossing fingers for a win:::: Yes it is a good day!
I want to thank everyone for the comments and emails. I do appreciate it. I do want to address something, and then the subject is closed on my part. I have not mentioned any names and I won't, but it's apparent to some I don't have to. More and more it's being said if I stop then 'they' have won. What exactly have they won? I don't see it that way at all. I see us all losing. JLand will forever have a changed landscape. We are no longer the 'secret' community. It's been ripped apart and exposed. I made a tag recently and bent the rules (as all taggers do and have), I have taken responsibility for that. Could it have been handled differently? Absolutely! It wasn't. We all make choices in life and we have to live with them. If it is in error we do our best to correct it. I've called no one a thief, nor did I deserve to be singled out, but I have. It's a shame, because now that it's been done I have a great fear it will snowball. So to all you taggers out there I am truly sorry. It's been said there is hate mail being sent, and if this in fact is true and being done on my behalf, please stop. It's over and done with. I wish punishment on no one. I have lost nothing. I have friends, good friends at that, I have love, I have family, I have happiness, and I have integrity. What have I lost?
Off to watch the pre-game show and then game 5. It's win and live another day, lose and go home. How 'bout a shout out for my boys? I'm a wreck. Nervous and excited..........
Hugs to all

Hi, I am so annoyed with the way things have turned out with regard to your graphics......I believe they are the best of the lot but that is my opinion; out of everything I have snagged the most I have stored is from you!! I will miss them but hopefully this stupidness will be sorted soon and seen for the daftness that it is!! Hang in there my friend, your graphics rule!!!
Yes youve got friends who love you ,.....'come on you boys ',our weather has been nice today too ...love Jan xx
Good luck to the boys, D! When all is said and done, here's to determination and will. You have too much talent to keep it bottled up for long. Love ya, Chris
Sorry things ended like this, but there's a better day coming!
I don't have a lot of your graphics, but I did snag some way back when I first started my journal...glad I did now. Just thought you'd always be there, but you'll be back...I'm sure. :)
Good luck boys! WHOOP WHOOP!

P.s. I meant I also read the other's journal too...and oh boy! How imature!
I'm glad your enjoying a beautiful day, and not allowing the cooler temps chill your heart! We have enough "coldness" here in jland! Let the sun shine in!
Your lil' princess is beautiful!
Warm wishes for the remainder of your weekend~

SHOUTING!!!!
Oh, she's just a little darlin'.

yes it is pretty today and that is a cute picture.
yes the thing I LIKE about you is WHEN You makea mistake you do it in honesty and admit it and make amends for it. So many do not make amends and NAME Names and send emails around sharing the names nad FALSE accusations and you have not done that. IM not totally sure who you are talking about but I sure do hope it all settles down soon for you and I dont wnat to miss out on your beautiful graphics so I hope you keep on creating.
I usually have something to say when things hit the fan but this time I am absolutely speechless. TOTAL SHOCK that this is happening, certainly not why any of us started making graphics and sharing them. I hope to see your's back up soon.
Hugs, hang in there!!

Lil Princess Bug is just cute beyond words, bet she'll be a little heartbreaker when she grows! I hope the boys win for you tonight, I'm cheering them on over here! I do admire the way you're handling the situation here, you know we're all behind you. We'll miss your graphics but we'll still have you here, that's the main thing! Go Sabres! Jeannette xx http://journals.aol.co.uk/jlocorriere05/Welcometomytravels/
Awww very cute "bubble princess" graphics! Hope you feeling better today.

I'd hate to see you stop doing what you love it do. {{HUGS}}

Hope the boys played well xx
Jenny
Awww, bless her! Look at her lil' face! hehe..priceless!
I understand and agree with what you're saying hun, but I think the 'Don't let them win' statement is just because these people 'get' at you for anything, to stop you doing what you love doing! And why? Just to piss you off! It's an awful thing to say, but these people are happy if you're not, and making graphics gives you pleasure, so they'll do anything to stop you. They're demented! Either way, you're right, you haven't lost, but I can't help wondering if those people are smiling.
Hope ya ok, and please don't take anything I've said wrong. I meant it purely in a positive way for you.
Lurve ya

D, that child is angelical. You take great pride in your work, and when dealing with family shots you excel. It's magnificent!
My thoughts go out to you during this time. I completely understand what you are saying. I too admire how you are handling this situation. I've been to the other journal and no where does she deny ratting you out. As a matter of fact she is gloating over it. The entire time pointing at you, blaming you, calling you names, threatening or should I say making promises. Apparently she is looking for more to gain. You ask for no punishment and she wishes it on you over and over. I commend you for not stooping to that level but for standing up admitting you bent the rules and moving on. It's very refreshing and it is evident others feel the same way.
I have to say I found something rather funny and that would be the reader list. There are folks out there that actually comment in both journals as though they have no idea who the other is. How in the world can that be? No offense but I'm beginning to think there are some real moronic folks out there. I'm not talking about the ones who know and aren't taking sides, I'm talking about the ones who have no clue. Do you laugh like I do?

on 2/8/07, MY life in J land changed forever. It will NEVER be the same for me.....and i fear this is happening now to you. There are insane, vindictive, bored people in J Land who will take ahold of a gripe/complaint and go with it for MONTHS, Donna, MONTHS. I know all about emails, lies, blogs off of AOL, and craziness.
YOU do not deserve this just because you wrote an entry stating your opinion. That is that your journal is for. I hope this goes away quickly. I love your work and i love you.

Oh you just have to love bug, she is such a cutie! I do not understand what is going on in jland but i wish people would leave my friends alone. You are brilliant with your photographs and your graphics and i thank you for bringing this gift to me I open your journal and its a pleasure to look at and read.
Love and hugs
Katie
Beautiful Bug! Hoping all this fingerpointing will blow over soon... Linda
She is absolutely adorable!!!
Missing your graphics something awful =(
I'm so sorry all of this has went down.
Hugs,
Terri
She is just so beautiful. Now you don't spoil her do you, lol. Yea right, with that cute lil face of hers how can anyone not spoil her right? I am so behind in journals. I am trying to catch up tonight though. I wish you lived closer so you could join Jeanne, Missie and I saturday for our picnic. I would so love to meet you one day. Always here for you girlfriend. Hope one day your back in full force with your graphics. (((((((((hugs))))))))))
Love ya,
Cindy
