Its late and I'm stewing

Got an e-mail tonight basically calling me a liar......not asking what I meant, or asking for details, just implying they knew I was not being truthful. It was a yahoo list-owner where I've been a member for a few years now, I told them I didn't appreciate it, and I left their list. I don't need that type of stress!
I may be a lot of things, but a liar is not one of them. And I hope I wouldn't assume I knew everything about another person and so call them a liar.
Mostly, I am disapointed in this person.

It's an email list. It isn't worth getting upset about. These people are not going to get you into heaven nor keep you out. Their opinion is not important to your life. Honestly, it is not worth the time to let them steal your peace. Just drop the list, and let it go. Your peace is worth more than that.

Let's TP their house!

It's a fun thought... Sigh. Act like a grown up, Dawn.
Seriously, it's a problem in their world not yours. You obviously touched a chord in them and they felt a need to lash out. I'm sorry it happened but if you know you're being honest then that's all that matters. I've always found you brutally honest and have always appreciated that in you.

Rotten eggs???

Emily, you can't help it if other people are off their rocker. All you can do is flush toxic people down the toilet and go on with life.

If you still feel any stress from it, try my simple stress relieving exercise:

Close your eyes

take several deep breaths

and envision strangling the certain someone.


All better

I too have never been a liar & really don't like people that are. Worse I don't like folks that talk about others or tell things about them that are not true.
Don't let them get to you Emily, you know your a good person & so does everyone else that means anything to you & that's all that's important!
We all Love you here, trust your judgement & we don't care what those others think from another email list!

Maybe that person had a REALLY bad day, backed their truck over their dog or something, and vented their emotions on you.

We love you, Emily!

Here's GOOD news..... I have a granddaughter of BOTH Princess and Orange (very intended breeding) that had been fostered out for bottle feeding. Picked her up yesterday. Her name is Jubilee, and she's a sweetie!!!! My goal had been to get those genetics in one little package and now I have her! She's also got Saanen in her, so she's solid white, elf eared, with wattles. Gotta love that!

Really sorry about that incident Emily. People can be so darned hurtful on the Internet. I think it's because they don't have to face you in person and make such claims. The Internet is a great place for cowards and bullies and blow-hearts.

Drop them..forget it..and shake the dust off your shoes girl!

Thanks guys. Really, if it hadn't been late at night and I had nothing much to think about, I probably wouldn't have given it too much thought. As it was, I had too much thinking time and it rankled.
I've never thought much of this guy, but really didn't have a reason and kinda felt bad for disliking him. Welll......never mind about that, I needn't think on him again. And he can forget my endorsement in the future!
Oh wait....supposed to be forgetting about him....and his politics......

Alice, that is great news!!! Picture? Picture??

I'm wondering if that's the same one I was turned down when I tried to join. First time I have EVER been turned down from an e'mail group. I just look at it like this. THEIR LOSS.

Emily, I feel for you. I don't get on my pc late at night, actually I am about to shut down for the evening. I usually wake up to them!

I have owned a website going on 10 years. It never ceases to amaze me how many people try to make their stupidity, hurt feelings or what ever it is MY fault...

Hugs sweetie, you seem honest and decent to me!

Shaving cream their car windows. Might make them late to work and be a double bonus!

Not a very political politician, if they are behaving in a way which turns away votes.

I believe I recieved the same letter, but I didn't know either candidate, so am not voting this year.
