'Thought of the Day'

Over the past few weeks I have been posting a 'Thought of the Day' on the Nursery's Facebook page. With such a wonderful response by people, these sayings are now being shared on the I Believe in the Fae (a community page....ooooooh....I have never been in a community before....well perhaps I have during my life...but I never wanted to actually get to know my neighbours and even more scarier to actually be someone's friend in that neighbourhood), Faerie Ring Community (secret group...oooooooh...I belong to a secret group...that in itself is soooo exciting) and The Fairy Sanctuary (not such a secret group...but still....oooooooh....I belong to a group now...and they even let me in!!!...what were they thinking??). 

In order to make these sayings be a wee bit more pleasing to the readers eyes I have been busy learning some of the basics of my Photoshop Elements program (of course with Alyssa's help...especially when I scream...it's NOT working).


Hubby dearest has provided me with a very long list of sayings that involve either Faeries, Fae or even Dragons. I have now finished off all of these great submissions and am now working off of sites that I am confirming their spelling, correct wording and author through izquotes.com. I have given full author credits and if unknown they are marked as so, to make sure that I am not infringing on any type of copyright laws that are in place. 


Along with these quotes as time has progressed and I have felt more comfortable in my own skin to start sharing my own thoughts and feelings, I now go on quite the ramble preceding the graphic.


I am quite proud to announce that people are not just 'liking' these quotes but that they are commenting and even sharing. To me, that makes me feel that I am doing a great a job and maybe even providing a posting that is greatly appreciated. 


As I have been kind of hounded over these many years to start writing and jotting down my thoughts and stories from my life, I think I might have just found an outlet for me to start this long journey. So to all of those (and you know who you are), I guess this is my way of saying 'thank you', thank you for the wee nudges (okay, some of them were not so wee), coaxing and well out right nagging me to do something that people think I might a knack for. Now please do keep in mind that I write exactly the way I talk. There are no adjectives, prepositions, verbs, commas, conjunctions (whatever that is...I looked it up on Wikipedia...which in itself is a MAJOR no no) to any sentence, paragraph (or lack thereof...hence see this writeup alone). I write the way the words come tumbling out of head, on the tip of my tongue, in the way my fingers type things out on the keyboard (and trust me....I have absolutely no control over this part). Oh and spelling...except for the wonderful thing called spell checker...I have no clue and really don't care how to spell a word just as long as I can get the idea put down. 


So if after all this nonsense that I just made you read...if you like to check out some of this nonsense please do visit my Facebook page and enjoy.

The Quiet Voice That Demands (Needs) To Be Heard

Hello followers of this blog and my Facebook Faeries...

I need you all to know that I am okay. I am still here and that I am still actively promoting my nursery but through other means.

I am still VERY hurt over the Facebook blocking more than I had ever thought I would be. My pride, my company, my heart and my soul were put out there for all to see everyday since creating this Facebook page. It had become my life where I devoted hours every day trying to be seen. Trying to be found in amongst millions upon millions (over 500,000,000 million as of October 3, 2013) of pages.

I will continue to keep my vow of silence until I feel that I am ready to bear my soul for all to see. It truly is like being naked (am I allowed to use that word or will it shut me down again) (is someone going to find it disgraceful, rude, explicit or hurtful).....guess I had best watch my wording.....continue to be open to the public for viewing.

I have been very active on my Twitter and Instagram (which are directly linked to my Twitter, Tumblr, Flickr and Facebook pages). I have opted not to post these little snippets to Facebook.....well because frankly......I can't see the point of it right now.

I wil be back......I will at least be posting my 'Thought of the Day' starting tomorrow (Monday, July 21, 2014) but other than that......I will not allow anyone to see the pain I'm feeling....Happy thoughts.....Happy thoughts.

I am staying on top of other postings......following a few and even commenting on a couple that are from my personal page only. Those are family and friends that are the closest to me and really have their best intentions and well wishes for me. Not to hurt those few 'real' people in the cyber world and I am happy and blessed to call as my wee Faerie Nursery friends. To those, I am truly sorry for my silence but please be patient, I need a bit more time to heal.

If you do have links to the following groups, I do encourage you to follow the continued antics of the nursery......like the blister with the Superman bandaid, the mew mew who thinks that the best place in the house to lay.....is on a bed made of flowers...

I am really sorry for this silence and I hope that you will understand the reasoning behind it.

On one further note, to my 2764 (fans, followers, friends)......as of right now, I will no longer be participating in any of the other group pages......no more ladders, no more hoping that I can be seen on another page by spending hours upon hours on the computer for what.......more faces that will never look twice at my page and press the button that says 'unfollow'. I will now dedicate my time to you, to those of you that take the time to read postings like this. To those of you who know what I must be going through. To those of you that understand, my page is about a Faerie Nursery......what is so offensive about that??

Yes, I hurt like crazy......and as the tears now start to roll again.....this is all for me today.

Here are the links again to my social media sites that at least don't ban wee Faeries that just want to spread some Faerie Dust to make everyone's day just the little bit more sparkly.
