Jesse came down on the ATV at around 6pm, unannounced of course, and took the saw we had yet to list online. So next month our rent will be $700 instead of $825. We probably would’ve gotten a little more had we listed it, but this way Tom doesn’t have to drive it to whoever would’ve bought it.

Only 5 sales since my book was published. sighs How disappointing. And no book reviews. Obviously, people didn’t care for the story. I guess all I can do is hope to improve from here on out. Eileen, who says a bracelet she made me is on its way, said she’d leave a review once she finished it. But because she’s so busy, particularly with her grandkids, she only has time to read a few pages a day.

Nane flunked the test. Meaning that there were no hits from Germany yesterday. Maybe she just hasn’t picked up my message yet and will pass the test in another day or two. I’ll keep watching the stats.

The troll didn’t check either blog today, which is pretty amazing. She sure has been harassing Kim, though I wonder sometimes if deep down a part of Kim enjoys fighting with her. I’ve advised her to keep certain things, especially links to new blogs, out of public yet she publishes them anyway. I myself should’ve known better as far as my own new blog and I should have kept my Facebook account private, knowing how she keeps creating new accounts to harass us from or to at least be able to view our accounts. But despite Kim letting her know she wants absolutely nothing to do with her, she goes and “likes” her pages and comments on her WordPress blog and calls it “caring.” Then she gets nasty when she’s told not to contact someone. The instant we put links where she can get at them, she sucks it right up like a straw. I just wonder how many years it will be before we can either have something done about her, or she’ll get tired of us. But it’s already been 7 or 8 years for the others and that’s a bit scary. Well, disappointing anyway. It leads me to think my online freedom is going to be forever restricted unless I want to just put up with the sick bitch and whatever comments, likes and insults she may feel like laying on me. To quote from her own words on Aly’s blog who tried to get her to go away, “I can reply and comment on whatever I want. If you don’t like it, make it for friends only.”

This is what they mean when they say that real stalkers don’t believe they’re doing anything wrong (yes, I’ve done some research on how their minds work). To them, they have a right to “care.” They think that as long as they’re being nice by telling you you’re a wonderful person, it’s ok for them to do whatever they want and to contact you even if you’ve told them a million times, nicely or not, to go away and stay away.
