Facebook

As most of my regular followers will know by now, I have deactivated my Facebook account. 

I didn't make a huge deal out of it, I just simply deactivated it and went away quietly. 

I closed it for a few reasons.....

1) people who are meant to be adults, but have more faces than a watch shop.... 

2) I needed some 'ME' time, without having to worry about pointless things 

3) I don't really talk to many people on there, and those I do have either my email or my phone number. 

I have been asked to leave The East Wind DT, however the wonderful Sam Holiday from lelli-Bot Crafts has allowed me to stay on the design team as she totally understands my decision and reasons behind it. 

Unfortunately, I do have mental health issues and Facebook doesn't help with these issues.... A lot of people are nasty behind your back, and I need to surround myself with people who I can trust and know won't laugh at me or take advantage of me. 

The people who are saying 'has someone upset her again', no! It's the mentality of people who think of me like that is why I've left. 

I can now craft how I want, when I want and not have pubic breakdowns which make me vulnerable to bullies. 

I have skype messenger or email if you are a 'friend' and want to keep in touch, but I can't see me coming back to Facebook anytime soon....

I will continue crafting and blogging, so those who would still like to visit and support me will be welcomed with open arms. 

Have a wonderful week and I hope I see some familiar and trusted names pop up from time to time.... 

Lots of love and well wishes
