I've just finished reading the latest post of Red Booty Woman. To me, the woman needs help because while I don't think she is the first, nor will she be the last, to embellish what otherwise may be a dull life, she carried the hoax far beyond the realm of normalcy. To me, her latest post is not a cry for help, but a cry for sympathy. I think she's sorry but not necessarily sorry for her actions but because she was caught.
My opinion is, and we all have one, is that I'm done with the drama. Her fifteen minutes of fame have long since expired. I wish those most deeply affected by this betrayal, peace and prayers to move forward and not give her anymore of the attention she desperately craves. They have given her enough of their time, love and friendship and she has 'kicked it to the curb' over and over again.
DONE and here's something a friend had posted on FB that is much more important than any words that may spew out of my head.
Enough aimless ramblings for today. See you again.
Amen:)
ReplyDeleteWell said sunnygirl, well said!
ReplyDeleteOn a side note...I love and appreciate your comments, and I am so glad that you're in Blogland. When I saw the title of your post, I had a moment of "Oh no, she's leaving!!" So glad to find out I was wrong. And again, well said. I think that the need for attention itself is an addiction for some people...
Thanks Lil. Sorry about the title, I didn't think about what it might make others think.
DeleteI so agree with your post and your opinion.
ReplyDeleteThank you
Meredith
Thanks Mere - it's what I feel and my feelings are just that, mine. It's always nice to know you're not standing out there alone at the end of the pier.
DeleteWonderful Sunny
ReplyDeleteThanks Wilma
DeleteDear Lord.... I thought the title meant you were leaving! I agree with what you said. I feel so terrible for those she hurt. I just pray they aren't in a situation where she is allowed to hurt them any further.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the scare, didn't think about that when I put in the title.
DeleteLordy, I thought you were leaving, too!! So glad you're here. I debated leaving but I'm going no where.... and you know why...
ReplyDeleteBecause there are real people here.... real FRIENDS here and that's what had gotten me through the week. I'm going to spend some time with my kids and we are going to play and laugh and find the sunshine!!
Love you Sunny
So did I, panicked me there Sunny. oh Rogue I am so glad you are staying, I hope to always be a real friend
Deletelove Jan,xx
Rogue, I'm so glad you decided to stay with us, it seems so right to have you here in blogland.
DeleteEnjoy the laughter, your children and the sunshine.
Well said and much appreciated, Sunny Girl.
ReplyDeleteThank you Tess.
DeleteThere's a lesson to be learnt here, Internet is not a safe place, protect yourselves and your identity, don't trust blindly and if something seems off, listen to your guy feelings.

A very valuable lesson, it reminds everyone that the internet is a very public place. It's Big Brother.
DeletePayPal is the way to go.

ReplyDeleteSG,
ReplyDeleteWith a title like that I thought you'd done blogging. Happy you're not.
I think I must have been asleep as I seem to have missed something.
Love,
Ronnie

No, but apparently you were not alone in thinking that, sorry I didn't think.
DeleteDrama, drama, drama and now it's DONE, at least as far as I am concerned.
What, a voice of reason in blogland? Seriously you've said it well. It's all sad and hurtful and will continue to be for many, but there is still such support and encouragement here and that's what I'll concentrate on.
ReplyDeleteThanks PK - unfortunately some of us will be able to put it behind us much quicker than those directly involved.
DeleteWe'll pull together, we always do.
I like your style! Although I didn't read Christina's latest post, suspect you are right. Seeing Rogue posting means things are moving on and just leaving things where they lay is probably a good thing right now. Life is messy enough without added drama.
ReplyDeleteI agree - life is strange enough.
DeleteAlong with everyone else, I'm so glad that you aren't 'done' with blogland! I love your quippy comments!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Cali
Thanks - I'll try and keep up those quippy comments (Ray calls them sarcastic)
DeleteDang, you had me scanning your post as fast as my eyes would go thinking you were leaving.. Whew, so happy that is not the case. I guess maybe I missed something big, but I don't mind missing drama. :0) Just very happy you aren't packing up your blog.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Irish Lucky
Thanks Irish Lucky - no I'm still here. Sorry, hope you didn't hurt your eyes doing that quick scan job.
DeleteOh my gosh - you got me too with that title! I'm so very glad you're not leaving!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Tracy
Sorry Tracy - didn't even think about that when I titled the post.
DeleteI agree - cry for help is very different from a cry for sympathy.
ReplyDeleteGreat quote, says so much in a very few words.
Thanks Girl, just my thoughts but I didn't hear what I thought would/should have been there.
DeleteGood gravy Sunny...give me heart seizures why don't ya! A friend emailed that same saying to me this morning...ya beat me to using it. ;) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHugs and Blessings...
Cat
Keep eathing that gravy Cat and you never know.
DeleteSG, on my blog, you can remove the filter between your brain and your mouth. It can only be estimated positive .. lol ...
ReplyDeleteOk, I was too intimidated by your tittel ... and thought, oh no, not SG!
I have read Christina's last post and what struck me was that she was not aware of how much pain her actions have done. Unbelievable. She needs help.
Thanks for this post, SG.
Hugs,
Mona Lisa
You're sweet Mona. Sorry about the scare.
DeleteHi Sunny,
ReplyDeleteI read it. Didn't see it as a cry for sympathy, but attention. I am done also. I have't posted much lately, but please don't filter yourself on my blog.
BB
You might be sorry about giving me carte blanche for the comments.
DeleteI couldn't agree with you more. I'm so glad you aren't leaving and glad to see Rogue posting again.
ReplyDeleteAmyee
I agree - so glad Rogue is sticking with us. Thanks for wanting me to stick around, it's a nice warm fuzzy.
DeleteHi Sunny,
ReplyDeleteI have to say when I read the post this morning there was definitely a feeling of, "You've got to be kidding me, right?" It certainly wasn't the post I was expecting from someone who was sorry for her actions. I do hope she gets the help she needs, but right now I want to focus my attention on Rogue and the people who were deeply affected by this mess.
All I can say to you is well said sister, and kudos for having the nerve to say it. Don't filter the awesomeness that is you.
TL
That's the way I felt - it wasn't what I expected to read.
DeleteThank you for your kind words, and as I told someone above, giving my unfiltered thoughts carte blanche could be scary.
Said perfectly. I feel that she is sorry for her actions, but not as sorry she is that she got caught.
ReplyDeleteSoooo glad you're staying. This place would certainly not be the same without you. :)
I agree with your comment.
DeleteThanks for the nice thoughts. They're appreciated.
I am biting my tongue wanting to say more on this subject. For now, I am just going to say AMEN. Thank you for doing this post, it meant a lot to everyone either personally affected or those who are followers.
ReplyDeleteOh Blondie, I'm sure you are but don't give it any more energy - enough has been expended on it already.
DeleteRelief! Done with the drama. NOT blog land. You sure know how to scare s person. Geezz
ReplyDeleteNot sure what all the drama is about. Very happy to have missed it. I spent the day cleaning the camper. First onrbas civilians. :-) Now if Dragon can get a few days off. Fingers crossed.
I hope Dragon gets the days off - glad you missed the drama - sorry didn't mean to scare with the title. I'll be more careful next time.
DeleteI've missed the dreams too and quite happy about it. SG, I don't comment and sporadically read (so busy these days), but am glad to read you aren't leaving.
DeleteThanks and be glad you missed the drama.
DeleteOkay... Climbing into bed and I see your post! I almost lost my dinner... Oh no I thought!!! Please....
ReplyDeleteThen sigh... The Sunny I know and love said it perfectly!
Thank goodness for your style!
I too am so very thankful that Rogue is staying!
I am of the belief that the majority here are loving caring, honest people!
As if you wouldn't know long before it hit here. You're funny.
DeleteI agree, glad Rogue is staying and I think the just like life, there's more good than bad.
Gosh Sunny, you had me worried too. So glad you aren't leaving. I love and appreciate your comments and support. Very well said!
ReplyDeleteSo glad that Rogue is staying as well.
Hugs
Roz
Thanks Roz for your kind words.
DeleteI too am very happy about Rogue.
Golly, Sunny, you worried me to death at first. Then I read on. I agree with Minelle and think you've had the courage of your convictions. Yes, let us move onwards and upwards.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Ami
Thanks Ami. I never expected the response this post has engendered. Didn't mean to add to the drama.
DeleteYou are loved and appreciated, Sunny. Thank you for calling it like it is.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ana. As I said I never expected this.
DeleteWow. I have nothing else to add that others haven't said but I believe there are more replies to your post here than I've ever seen to anyone else's post.
ReplyDeleteWell said. Jackie
Thank you Jackie. Yes, it has been quite an outpouring, I'm flattered beyond belief.
DeletePerfect ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you Betsy.
