I feel much more at home here than with anyone who wants to put it out there but doesn't seem to expect any kickback when their comments appear to be deliberately controversial, and actually quite insulting to those of us who wear masks to protect others, and possibly also ourselves.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477839710340094297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674486998769998428.post-80108543737046441482021-02-08T17:44:38.443+00:002021-02-08T17:44:38.443+00:00Thank you for the welcome! A hornet's nest in...Thank you for the welcome! A hornet's nest indeed! But there's a big difference in expressing opinions in a healthy manner and in ramming those opinions down others throats with an obsessiveness that borders on paranoia, all done to stir things up and get more attention I suspect. <br />I read that you've gone through hard times but I'm glad you're now happy again. My own circumstances are different due to ill health of my partner but I'm gradually getting more used to being on my own and there's a certain sense of freedom that comes with it although it's not what I would have wished for. <br />I'll certainly stick around, thank you, I might not always comment but I'll be here reading.

Well I certain...Hi Pauline, and welcome to my blog! Well I certainly stirred up a hornet's nest didn't I, but if I can't express my opinions on my own blog well .... nuff said! Until very recently, when my newly-divorced son moved back in with me, I had been living on my own since January 2010 and you know what? I love it! Oh sure, there are a few times when I miss the close company of a partner, but they are few and far between, compared to the times I think "thank GOD I don't have to put up with that any more". So anyway, welcome to my blog and I hope you'll stick around. Cheers.Treadershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613671137557939083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674486998769998428.post-33618499967544204562021-02-08T16:20:10.345+00:002021-02-08T16:20:10.345+00:00The eccentric person has got what she wanted - she...The eccentric person has got what she wanted - she says she's had over 2000 views. A bit strange really as she's previously professed to write her blog for herself and doesn't care about how many views it generates. <br />I feel a little sad for her really, she's previously said she spends about 4 hours a day on her computer, that seems like the sad life of a loner to me and dependent for happiness on the number of people viewing her blog and you tube videos. People living on their own are having a hard time during lockdown, I'm on my own and I'm very thankful for my family and friends keeping in touch every day. She doesn't seem to have any close friends just acquaintances that she sees when walking. For instance a conversation with Stan the library van driver seems to be a highlight whereas to someone with family and lots of friends we'd have a conversation with him but it wouldn't be something we'd feel the need to highlight on a blog. It's a shame that she seems to alienate people with her views but the abrasive manner certainly doesn't help either.<br /><br />I've recently found you and am looking forwards to reading through a few older posts.

I responded to her cut and paste from my blog that "to clarify matters, my calling someone a bitchy cow referred to my ex-husband's mistress" and she chose not to publish it. That's her prerogative anyway. But in the end, I really don't care.
