~ Sweet Attitude ~

        DsDesignsSweetLittleAttitude.gif picture by 55hockeyfan


What the hell am I doing?  Break... not a break....   Good gawd.... if I only knew!!  I was hurt, angry, and tired when I posted.  Maybe it was a true example of the winter blues.  I don't know.. nor do I know what I'm doing now.  LOL   I just know I missed everyone....

 

I want to be clear it wasn't just my troll, tho the more I see, the scarier it gets.  It was more a combination of things.  Maybe my strength, as little as I have, reached a breaking point and I had to step away.  Maybe I still do, maybe I still will.   Does that sound like someone thinking clearly?  Not to me, but know what?   I don't think I care.  I think I will go on with a sweet little attitude and just be me.   Maybe I will stop trying so hard to please everyone, and just please me.  Hmmm... as I wrote that, it sounded so selfish... more then I intended.  I just hope it can be taken in the context it was meant, even if my wording just plain sucks.   Folks manipulating, twisting, and taking out of context things said or events that occurred to fit just their agenda is old.  Time could be better spent.  With that said, I will be spending my time a bit differently too.  How?  I haven't decided yet.  LOL  What, did you think since I started this entry I had an epiphany?   Not on your life.  Just giving a fair warning.  :)

 

Ahhhh.... so what did I do while not doing entries?  Relaxed, all that domesticated stuff (eeewww), watched TV.  Yes me... and TV... do you know there isn't shit on!?!?  And of course played in PSP.  Now, what the hell.  I have tags on my PC and they are sitting there.  Any idea what I might do with them? 

 

Ok, being an ass, but having fun.   Thanks to all of you... you just plain ROCK!

 

Hugs

I love your 'Sweet Little Attitude' Miss Donna.  You're the one who rocks.  You know you do.  Just check out the number of hits you get when you make an entry.  You have a ton of people who love you and your work.  Welcome back.

(((DONNA))) good to see you back and kickin ass!
Sometimes it is easy to forget cyberlife is just like real life and made up of all types of peeps. In cyberlife it is harder to protect ourselves from those who want to impart their negativity onto us but remember they are in the minority and for the majority of us we love to read your blog and request your fantastic tags

... okay, NEVER apologize for being yourself ... that is something that isn't up for negotiation ... as to 'trolls', they exist ... so screw 'em ..!  Isn't life too short to do things and concern yourself with what doesn't make you happy?

... oh, my I have one with the name 'Sharon' ..?  Thanks!

I'm the selfish one and really glad you're not gone because I love your tags. Thanks for sharing.
Take care, Chrissie

I have to agree with the last post Donna ....you are far from selfish ....you are like me and take things personally.

Glad you are back as I LOVE your tags and postings .....you make me laugh many times and I do appreciate that.

May I please have the following name

( Tara Leigh )  Thank you kindly

Big hugs sent to you

Well..I'm glad you're back even if it is just a quick visit to say hello. I hope it's not...but maybe if it is I'm glad you did.
Hope you have a good week. Thanks for sharing your tags sweetie.
Hugs and love,
Pam
PS...I missed you!!

Not one, not two, but three entries!
You just sounded tired and fed up when you said you were going to take a break, that's totally understandable. I think most of us come to J-Land to relax, when it gets too stressful it defeats the whole point of being here to begin with.  
Glad you didn't stay away long.

Welcome back, Donna, knew you couldn't stay away for 5 minutes from this place lol

You're so cute Donna!  We all have our moments, whether in real life or JL or myspace, work...etc.. ya know?  And there will ALWAYS be the haters in those places.  We have to learn to ignore them or at least try to.  I personally feel sorry for them, it must he hell going thru life hating everything and everyone eh?  You just had a minor set back and now you're back and all is good, even if it's only for a few days or a few tags, just take it one day at a time, in life that's all you can do!!  Adorable sweet little attitude tag!!

GLAD YOUR BACK AND I'M SOOOOOO SELFISHLY HAPPY TO HAVE TAGS AGAIN ;)
Hugs, Darlene

Glad you're back.!! Missed ya!!
I think you should just please you, that's not being selfish. The trouble is Donna you're just too nice, too caring, too sharing, and people take advantage of it.!!
But doing housework instead!!  No!!  T.V. No! there's nothing on over here either.!!
You take care now.
Luv Ya.
Hugs

Welcome back, Donna!  No doubt, the best way to handle your "troll" is give them no acknowledgement and keep right on doing whatever makes YOU happy!  So sorry there was nothing to watch on TV, though ... a veritable desert out there!  Take care & thanks for brightening MY life ;o)

Peace!
Linda

It gets very hard to write just for yourself sometimes.....but i am here to read anything you ever have to write. LOVE YOU no matter what.

I don't know about people! But I wish you luck in how you intend to fight the unfairness of those who don't come alive unless they are 'criticizing.'  And don't understand the word in all its connotations.  Gerry

Donna,
I don't really know you.  I'm new to your journals.  What I do see though is a woman that does really care about others and tries to bring happiness to all (even complete strangers).  How sad of an exsistance does your troll have.  Really, coming to someone else journal to try and put someone down, to make them FEEL better??  I truely feel sorry for a person that desperately sad.  You just keep on doing what you are and those of us that really care about what you are posting will be here.  The others, well...  (((hugs)))

Donna
I understand the need to just step back sometimes and take a break.  Hopefully one comes back recharged and with a fresh outlook.  I've taken a few reaks from journaling and I always relfect on how I might do things differently when I return.  It's healthy to re-evaluate, so to speak.  At any rate, it is always good to see a post from you and I'm glad you are back with us again.

It is hard to think of one self before others, when you are such a caring and warm hearted person as you are. It would be wonderful if you could please yourself before you please others.... I think that would be the main key .... but......
I don't have the answer either, because I am that way too and think often the way you do.
I am happy to see you back.... even if it is just for a little while.... you do what feels right for you. Best wishes. Maria

Welcome back, D!  Taking a break from something you love to do is hard.  So glad to see you here again.  LOL...I knew you'd be making tags, and you sure don't want to totally clutter your hard drive up.  Love ya, Chris

Hey you deserve a break too!  Linda

My 2 cents...You are on the top Journals List 5 out of 7 days a week and i think that Eats at your Troll that she can't write witty enough to have comment worthy entries!

The more she creates trouble for you...the more comments YOU get...DUH! LOL! Keep blogging girl!

I was away for a few days myself.  After getting those diagnoses, I've just been super-tired and need some quiet time (when I was awake) to figure out how to deal with it all.  I think it's the long winters up there.  Someone sent me some pics from upper NY where the snow was practically burying houses.  I know I would be tired of it.  My sister in MI said they have gotten alot more snow than they usually get.  Thank you for your kind comment when I was really down.  You please yourself.  That's more important.  You can't please everyone and expect it not to affect you in a negative way.  Love your taggies/graphics & all the work and time you put in them.  I really appreciate your tag offers.
Love and hugs,
D

Well Donna, for personal reasons I am glad you are back.  Just please don't over-do, you can't get over all of this all at once.  As for your troll . . . (to snag a line from 'Wizard of Oz') there are many things I can say about that, but . . well . . . being the Christian woman I am . . . I can't say them :(   I snagged your "Tink" above for my daughter Andrea.  She's 14 on Tues., learning disabled (they say retarded) and ALL Tink.  I'm glad she loves something that I like and approve of.  Blessings and love, Penny  http://journals.aol.com/firestormkids04/FromHeretoThere

Oh yeah, you are so selfish.  That's why you spend so much of your free time customizing all these graphics for other journalers ;-). ~Mary
