If you can't say something nice...

I wish everyone would stop and think about the rest of that adage before they speak.  DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL.  
I've had two people in the last two days - one I know and one I don't - say mean, hurtful, sad things to me.  And trust me, as a sensitive, lover not a fighter Libra - cut me and I bleed. 
Now, I know I've been known from time to time to rant on about people and how they frustrate me, but I don't think I have ever, EVER - said something cruel or hurtful to someone's face, virtual or otherwise.  It's just not in my make up.  Plus, I'm so careful about what I say most of the time, for FEAR that I will say something that will offend someone.  And on the rare occasion that it might happen (it seems I'm on a roll this week), my stomach gets tied up in knots and I feel very sad.  So I've only made just a little progress on the room today - and found that one of the tables that fit in my head - does not fit in reality.   So I had to do some juggling, and some more culling of pieces that I plan to put out.  Let's just hope I have such great sales the first day that I can put out some of the pieces I had to take out, and then do it again on the second!  Wouldn't that be special? 
So what have I been doing with my time today?  Playing with PicMonkey.  LOVE the Monkey, and am learning more and more things that can be done with him everyday.  Plus I love what he says as you choose things.  Great site - and best of all - it's FREE!  Here's a sample of what I played with today - some backgrounds, frames, and adding my name to each one - something I've always wanted to do, especially now that so many of my pieces are floating around on the internet thanks to Facebook and Pinterest.


Pretty cool, huh?
Wish me luck with the rest of the week.  I still have to finish my space, and make the goodies I plan to sell, as well as the ones that we can eat, run a few errands, mail an Etsy sale that came in the middle of the room prep, and hit the credit union for petty cash.   I need time to stand still for a minute!
Don't forget to comment for a chance at the Mix It Up bead mix giveaway on Thanksgiving.  I haven't forgotten - I swear.  I just can't get to the bead table anymore, so I can't add to the bag!
Peaceful beading,
TTFN

I'm sorry you had that happen. Hope that people are nicer from now on!

I still believe in Karma...those who are hurtful will be hurt. Just ignore them...life is too short. You don't need people like that in your life!

There seems to be way too many people nowadays that have never heard that old saying or just don't care how hurtful they are. I TRY to ignore it, but am usually not successful. Love that first necklace.

Ok. Weirdness. That third comment? It's MINE. How come it says it's someone else? Kinda afraid to click on it - but wonder what else of mine they've stolen....
