It's All About Me

I spent the last four months on a blog that was very strictly moderated. I decided Ineed more freedom to express myself.

I'm working full time and going to school for my Masters. Work is a six mile commute, school is a 90 mile commute. I'm a busy girl with a lot to say so stay tuned.

  1. Hey girlfriend!! So excited to see you decided to start your own blog. You are going to like this so much more than iReports!! That site is for those who seek attention only. So far, everyone I've met has been so friendly and exercise blog etiquette, something that lacks at iReports.

  2. Thanks beans!

    I think you're right. I need my own space. I didn't want wordpress or twitter or facebook. I didn't want to go back to OKCupid even though I miss my friends there. There was a reason I left. And when I saw that this was a google blog I decided to try it.

  3. Gotcha!!! I'm your first follower now lol. Took me awhile to figure this out, I haven't googled in about 6 months lol....

    ReplyDelete
  4. LOL!!!! I saw your picture and was wondering why you hadn't said hi :-)

    ReplyDelete
  5. I tried to do the follower thing, but my hubby's profile kept showing up for some reason. You are on my blog buddies list, so that will inform me when you have new posts. Is that KCRep??

    ReplyDelete
  6. you need to take that code word thing off, geo!! that's cumbersome.

    ReplyDelete
  7. there is a setting in "comments" that requires the commenter to type a code word before their comment goes through. You need to take it off.

    ReplyDelete
  8. go to "settings" then "comments" then to "word verification".

    ReplyDelete
  9. voila!! thanks! much better! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  10. have you informed italco and all your other friends of your new blog?

    ReplyDelete
  11. I put the link on my goodbye post. I know italco saw it because he PM'd me. I emailed him but I don't remember if I put this link there...let me check...getting senile :-(

    ReplyDelete
  12. I will leave you alone to work on your set-up. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. I might not have all the answers, but I've learned alot in the past fews weeks.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Thanks beans xo!

    One request. Let's forget about that other place and the nasty peeps there. I'm happy to have our friends join us but let's leave the rest behind, OK?

    ReplyDelete
  14. I've been wanting to do that ever since I started my blog, but I couldn't because of the friends I left behind. Cue and Indy609 are pretty much the only ones who are still there, but they both have my info and I have requested they both start their own blogs a few times, so I have a feeling they will be switching over soon.

    It's a deal, girlfriend (hi-five!) In fact, I will go deactivate right now!! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  15. Cool!!!! I'm going to leave mine up until Monday like I said in case someone else who hasn't been around wants to find me.

    Monday night I'm deactiving!!!!!

    I feel so liberated.

    ReplyDelete
  16. it's like taking your clothes off and dancing around the house naked!!!! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  17. BTW...when I deactivated and they ask you why...my response was, "I was very disallusioned with the site because it was mostly drama and very little news."

    ReplyDelete
  18. We'll have to put the pressure on Cue and Indy to join us here.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'll let you take over that task. They haven't been responding to my prompts. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  20. I'm going to have to sign off for the night. My hubby's calling. I need to spend some time with him. ;-) Catch up with you tomorrow. I'm so happy you're here!!

    ReplyDelete
  21. So am I beans!!! Thank you!!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hey Geonite, Can you see me???

    ReplyDelete
  23. Glad to see you found your way to a new area. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Hey!!!
    I made an acct just now, thought that was the only way to get in...
    This is pretty cool!!!
    Are you gonna be writing on here?

    ReplyDelete
  25. Yes I will.

    Thanks for coming ANAV.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Nice!!! Ok now I'll be seeing you for sure...I'll talk to you late nd have a great night!!!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Which side of the fence is Anav on?

    ReplyDelete
  28. I have seen him with OCGirl, VF, and now here...I am confused...I thought he was help OCGirl combat Geo and Spon...did everyone kiss and make up?

    ReplyDelete
  29. And no he was not helping OCGirl combat me and Spon.

    Can we please stay civil.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Of course, just checking...I saw his name on VF's blogroll and on e-mails I have received from OCGirl. I have never had a conversation with him so I just wanted to ask him direct. Nothing hostile intended.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I will be civil ;)

    ReplyDelete
  32. italco: I joined wordpress not too long ago, and posted only one thing. It was too difficult for me to figure how to use wordpress. Everyone wanted to help me because I have nothing against anyone...

    ReplyDelete
  33. italco I did try and help Robin, OCGirl, helping her to relax and to do the things right. Not the way she acted. And thanks for telling her NOT to trust me...

    ReplyDelete
  34. I will, always wondered why italco told oc not to talk to me when all I did was try and help her calm down. But that stopped after she called me some names...

    ReplyDelete
  35. just thought that that sentence "which side is Anav on?" was childish...
    Im good now, you know me and so does everyone else...

    ReplyDelete
  36. Anav - If Geo says you are trustworthy then I will give you the benefit of the doubt and take your explination at face value. Welcome to the light...lol

    ReplyDelete
  37. Thanks italco, I mean I dont have enemies and on wordpress they tried to help me. But Geonite and everyone knows me. I never heard your name until oc told me that you said Im not trustworthy...thats all

    ReplyDelete
  38. I don't want to have to start removing comments so lets move on please.

    I'm not going to take anymore bickering.

    Italco and ANAV have both proven to be good friends. We all befriended OCGirl at times and she turned on all of us.

    I'm not having any of that rabid VF group here. If ANAV tells me he isn't with him that's good enough for me. ANAV is not a liar.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Moving on...

    Congrats on your new home here Geo...now I get to actually talk to you on your turf. It looks good.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Thanks Geo,
    anyone can check wordpress and see that I never said anything at all. Just didnt know how to start wordpress and I asked Lisa and then it went from there. Everyone tried to help get me started...

    ReplyDelete
  41. But I was really hurt when I saw that you were leaving ireport...But Im glad you got this tho...

    ReplyDelete
  42. can we post video here or just words?

    ReplyDelete
  43. ANAV, I'm sorry but I have to do what's right for me. We can stay in touch here and maybe you can start your own blog here.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Thanks Italco!!!!!!

    There is life after @#$!$%#

    ;-p

    ReplyDelete
  45. Videos pictures anything.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  50. Geonite,,,,,this is blabbylips,,I am having a problem with selecting a profile....it will only let me use anonymous.....

    ReplyDelete
  51. Ask beans blabby. She's been here longer than me.

    Glad to see you here.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Blabby...just select Name/URL. All you have to do is fill in a name, if you don't have a website.

    ReplyDelete
  53. if by any chance it doesn't accept it the first try, do it again and it will go through.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Blabbylips: I had the same problem so I created this acct in like 2 minutes. It's actually really cool...Hope to see you in ere...

    ReplyDelete
  55. Oh yeah, I did have to post every comment twice on beans blog.

    New post everyone, check it out.

    ReplyDelete
  56. maybe it's google's way of pushing people to open an account. ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  57. Hey, guys. Glad to see everyone over here. I, too, have a blog on blogger, but I am not very good about posting. I got so caught up in, as Geo put it, @#$!$%#, that I neglected my little corner here. I also created a blog on wordpress, so I could keep in touch with others that I met on @#$!$%#. LOL
    Now that I, like Geo, feel liberated, I am hoping that I will get back to keeping up. Of course, it will depend on the work load around the house, but one can always hope, right??

    ReplyDelete
  58. Oh and, Stephanie is the real name for ctlss.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Hi All, glad to be on a site where you don't have to worry about being attacked. Besides there's really no one left on %^&*&^%$ anymore.

    ReplyDelete
  60. ok I tried to get on so let's see if it works..sorry I have two blue heads on here..did not know wht the hec I was doing

    ReplyDelete
  61. Yippee it worked...hey Geo..how's it going??
    I am so glad to be off that toxic site. 8 months and whoa!! enough is enough right?? most of the great people have left either on their own or got banned..That place has not provided the community with the tools or means to protect themselves at all. Very unprofessional! The wounds are still a bit raw and it will take a bit of time to just forget about it all! Too much lying and personal targeting. The behind the scenes nonsense that went on..no thanks..people getting threatened with law suits?? HA..bring it on I say..bring it on! very disgusting that the very people who keep that place running for FREE get no support from the management at all! Anyway this looks friendly..

    ReplyDelete
  62. I have to work on figuring out how to get a photo on here ..and get rid of the one blue head too LOL two blue heads LMAOROF lol

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  68. Hi Geonite, hi everyone.....just stopping in to say hi.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I need to change that. I'm on mountain time not pacific time.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Hi Kathi, thanks for stopping by.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Hey, I have to deactivate this, I didn't realize my last name was on here dah....I'll try to change it and come back.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Well, I can't change it but at least I can come back to post.

    ReplyDelete
  73. We won't tell anyone who you are.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Hi Geo..I will stop by from time to time..weather is so hot and nice so not here that much...glad you and others made the escape from Zombieland..It was crazy and not very pleasant anymore..Too much anger, hate, jealousy..and a whole host of other emotions and feelings. Like I had said on a post of mine the place has become toxic..not healthy..and very unreasonable to people who have never meant any harm to anyone. The continued made up lies was what really surprised me the most followed by the bitterness, hatered and ignorance with careless thoughtless comments constantly being made on posts and behind the scenes on the emails there..I am glad you have a new place and it is looking great..Keep well..

    ReplyDelete
  75. Thanks gillian, I look forward to your input. It's raining here. Monsoon season started early.
