well, thankyou to pam,guest editor of the week on magic smoke for making this load of drivel one of her picks. bless you pam as i said cheques in the post.lol i know ive said it before but here we go again. when i started this journal it was a safety valve, a way to let off steam a rant sometimes. i thought maybe if i was really lucky maybe 2 or even 3 people would want to read my ramblings. now i got picked by the guest editor i am honoured.and thanks for all the many nice comments i have received.
been a busy day, now the bathroom door is done ( oh those words a sense of happiness prevails lol ) apart from the decorator coming to paint it,i decided to vax all the carpets. they were bloody filthy lol got china cabinet back in hall,and china back in it. all back to normal.
had letter from tumble drier insurance company, apparently it is not economical to repair it,so they are replacing it with a new one. jolly isnt it?? EXCEPT. i have to send them a payment of £71 for rest of insurance premiums,postage and packing,etc. now,need i say?? havent got it,paid out far to much just lately. but as the tumble drier would cost 180 i will find it somehow. just have to keep hand starting it. lol bit like trying to crank start an old motor.lol
As i said,ive had a lot of lovely comments on my journal, but today i received my first nasty one. just the one? cheek lol. some one left a rather unpleasant comment,about did i think i was someone special? looking after my mum with MS, did i think i was the only one,that lot people were worse,blah blah. ermmmmmm for that persons information,NO, I KNOW,LOT WORSE THAN ME. but this is MY journal,and i write it from the heart. i deleted the comment, pretty sure it's a screen name used just to annoy,in j land i think you call such morons as trolls?? in chatrooms,we know them as hiders. hiders because they use false names too cowardly to use real screenys. i really don'y care if that person didn't like my writing,but i can understand just how hurt certain journal writers would be. i dont make unpleasant comments, if i don't agree with what someone has written,i move on. please feel free to do the same.
so, i have come a long way from that first nervous entry ( i had my finger over the save button after writng it for ages before pressing lol) to my nice matters award to editors pick to insulting comment. and i thought i would get that first off. lol thanks to all the lovely people out there it's much appreciated.
lastly,can i please ask you all to add a lovely lady to your good wishes and prayers,her name is Di she is not a journal writer in fact she isnt even on aol. she had a lumbar puncture just recently,and has MS. and rather nasty symptoms to. May everyone in pain,find relief. may those scared,alone,and friendless find love. take care all

There seems to be a lot of these trolls hanging about, "Cowards" take no notice I for one enjoy reading your journals and like you say its an important outlet for you so keep going. Least the bathroom is done now, even if you are left with all the cleaning, as for the tumble dryer might be tter to hell out the £71 I know its a bit tight but at least its brand new and under a new gaurantee!!! Best wishes to your friend Di and wish her a good recovery from her Lumbar puncture.
Love to mum
Have a good Sunday

i was raised in south alabama and our parents taught us if you can't say something nice keep you big mouth shut!! keep writing!! randy
Sorry to hear you had a troll. There's been a lot about just lately.!! It can be upsetting for some, but I hope you ignore them and carry on regardless.
I had the same trouble with my washer. Barely five years old, but not worth repairing, send us x amount of money and you can have a new one. I will pray for a windfall for you.
Sending prayers to Di, may she feel better soon.
Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
Have a good Sunday.
Hugs

Mort,
When you gain praise like with being Guest Editor's Pick, some pathetic souls get jealous and nasty. You've dealt with it in exactly the right manner. Don't dwell on it, consign it to the garbage bin of history.
congrats on being a guest editor's pick!! so sorry about that nasty comment; I don't know why people are so cruel to one another!
betty
Congrats on your well deserved Guest Editors Pick !
I love reading your journal Mort, you make me smile.

It's only because your almost famous now! lol. I tell you Mort. If I hit the big cash, your a winner! No more tumble dryer worries, you will be wondering where to have your next luxury holiday. I will say a prayer for Di. and I will also remember to put a lotto ticket on this week. ;-) Stay Happy. Love Pam xx
