The Art of Mis-managing Time

well,

look at this, i just looked back and my last blog posting was done the day after my birthday.  now granted that really isn't such a bad thing.  the bad thing was that, that was mid September.

so, as i will be bold enough to say, that i think the trophy for the  "art of mis-managing"  should go to me (insert smiley face here).  hmmmm, Blogger doesn't seem to have a smiley face option so i will just need to add in a sad face along with the above noted smiley face.     :(    :)

and, well, what really has been happening since September?  with some of you knowing and as others will now know that the nursery is oh so gently being packed away for the big move that the nursery is actually kind of a mess.  and so, i can use this excuse on why you, and me for that fact, can't see the floor, the table, the other table, oh, and don't forget the other table that has the sewing machine and serger sitting on it, and those 4 mini shelves.  i know that i'm missing so many of the places that i could have put things on, but ummm, they seem to be piled full with other stuff so they really can't be counted in as have a spare space or two to actually put anything else on them.  but hey good news, the computer hasn't been lost.  with this news of the whole packing thing, don't think that my time that i have for working here in the nursery is anyway been put aside.  come to think of it, i think i just might be spending even more time in the nursery.  

i will admit to my  "at this time"  be my favourite, of favourites thing to do, is Instagram.  at the beginning i had only started exploring photos from the nursery, the faeries, the steps to make faeries and the such but now, well now, it sure has changed not just the look but the topics and thoughts that i put to the photos.

as, i know a blog or two ago, i had figured that i would try to update this blog with my 'once' 'thought of the day' and Instagram pictures, and as you can see that i have completely missed this whole step.  as with the Instagram program i have the option of sharing with our Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Flickr accounts.  with each posting, i have always chosen all 4 of these venues to showcase the nursery.  now i just need them to create a direct link to this Blogger account and that would be fantabulous.  with Instagram updating all of these sites automatically, i am creating hash tags (and probably completely incorrectly) to try to have them noticeable.  of course, as you can tell, my 'thought of the day' and then my 'thought of the week' and then my 'random thought' has fallen completely by the road side, i was hoping to have my Instagram postings fill this void on our Facebook page.

i'm thinking that i need to do a few alarms and notices and, and, and the such to remind myself that i need to do a blog write up.  maybe that might help.  or, then again, you could just remind me every once in awhile.

well, before i really start my day, i will do 2 Instagram photos right now under the 'photo' tab.

i hope you enjoy your day.  oh, and with the cold weather just around the bend please, please, please don't catch the sniffles as i've heard that sneezing, sniffles and/or coughing kinda kicks up and creates a whole cloud like shape of faerie dust.  and no, it just doesn't gently fall down to the ground, no it goes everywhere.  and like i just don't mean everywhere as in everywhere, i mean in like EVERYWHERE!

love,
me

I am happy to say that our Website, Flickr and Pinterest pages have updated as well. I have opted to know type out the whole quote instead of just the author's name where noted. I even found out that on Flickr that you can add key words!! Granted, I did have difficulties figuring out what 'Tags' to use but I did manage to get a few in. I am presuming though, that I should start updating our Google+ page with these postings as well? All in due time I guess!! And of course, these 'Thoughts of the Day' will be posted once again on our Facebook page. For now, all of our impromptu Instagram photos are automatically put on our Flickr, Twitter and Tumblr accounts.

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.
