Friends.....................

Today as i was reading something it made me reflect on friendship,yes even online friendships.I think that friendship is so important,i have lost 2 very dear friends & the friends i have now i consider myself very lucky to have.Having friends online is also a blessing,i have met a few & have to say i enjoy their friendship.The saying your friends are the family you chose for yourself rings so true.I have also been burnt online & seriously so i am now very cautious of whom i say are friends.Drama online is not me,i don't like to see it & won't be part of it.Whats written in one sense can be taken up so badly wrong & everything goes downhill from there.It is no fun if you have to be cautious of what you write,so many people read things so differently,I am one of the ones that have to admit i am guilty of taking things up wrong & putting my foot in my mouth....lol

I was part of a group where things got very personal & that did it for me,time to bail out.Who wants that drama in their life,we make friends online to get away from that drama not go head first into it.I wouldn't want to hurt anyone by what i would say online,no one knows the damage that can cause & how badly it damages the person at the other end.One thing is for sure you can run from yourself but you can't hide ,the truth will always out.I am the person offline that i am online,what you read is who i am,i don't hide from me so i certainly won't hide from anyone else.

If i have to watch every word i type is it worth typing anything to begin with........Makes a person think!!!!!!!!!.

This evening i got a few cards done so i am pleased with that,maybe tomorrow i will get an L.O. done...lol.

Thank god it is a long weekend.We are off to our son Padraigs house tomorrow night for dinner & a few drinks ( no not I....lol) & Sunday i have the family for dinner so i have every intention of relaxing Monday.I was planning a bbq but after todays thunderstorm i had second thoughts....lol

I am no longer going to continue my online shop as i can't keep up with it,i will just take my shop to the Cork crop from now on.It is easier on me to just have it at the crop & i get to spend time with Mike as it has been so hectic & i really didn't expect that.I hate that i have to contact everyone to tell them as i have the most wonderful customers.
