MY FRIENDS

For my friends (for those who don't like me please don't respond negatively to this post as I am fed up with innacurate and slanderous insults today).......

due to the unfortunate fact that friends only journals have been raided and ppl are unfairly slagging me off, I have removed some of my friends. I have based this on - keeping the ones I have spoken to in the last couple of weeks. If I've deleted you, and if I have it doesn't mean I don't want to be friends, please request again. I am just trying to keep myself 'safe' and hope you appreciate this

how do people get into friends only journals?

People can "pose" as friends under a bogus user name. That's how the information in one of the posts lasts night was discovered, copied and pasted into the public forum.
My response to this was to start leaving all of my journal entries open.

Tptally concur with dizzycow. Friends are there for you whatever happens. I had a so called friend,, who when she needed me, ie. she was rushed to hosp. at 1 o'clock in the morning, I was there within 15 nins. had to borrow money for taxi. I needed her when I was depressed and suicidal, Where was she? In bed couldn't get to me, not even to phone back. I've now dropped her as best friend, but still speak, JUST. BIG BOSIES to all. XXX

I think toocool has the right idea. We should maybe be more careful who we include as friends. From know on, I will only include those who I have had contact with for a while.

Unless I have a gut feeling that it is OK to include them.

I think we all need to feel safe about adding friends.

I had noticed after a run in with someone that my journal was being repeated. My journal is now open, for anyone.

the problem with turning down a "friend" request for me is that I'm afraid it will hurt someone, maybe they are in need at the time.

I kept people on my friends list, some we kept in touch, others not so often. Instead of having to be "friends" just pm me, hug me, respond to me on here til everything gets better.

don't go looking for trouble, its not a good idea.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
