An Explanation!?


So for most of you a private blog so quickly is kind of a oddity. One that may or may not deserve and explanation. And since frankly its my blog I can do what I want with no explanation to anyone... Just kidding.

Here is the SCOOP!

About 3 years ago when Myspace was all the rage, I signed up. It wasn't to like find a man but to spy on my sister. Spy in a good way though. Like she knew I added her etc. And then I started finding people from high school and finding people from College etc. Then I was introduced to the world of Groups.

I found a group of women known as Momoz. Or Mormon moms. I joined this group and thought it would be good support system and place to just "make" friends etc. Things were fine for awhile. Around a year and every ones kiddos were getting to be 2, the typical pattern was you would find lots were getting pregnant. While that isn't a problem for me, I found they would start complaining. Some even started complaining as early as 12 or 13 weeks. Again that wasn't the problem. When they would complain I "thought" I was supportive saying something like, "Trust me you want to keep them in," or something to that effect. Frankly, its a problem for me when you complain about being pregnant. I understand you are huge, uncomfortable etc but NOT at 13 weeks. If you want to complain at 35 or even 36 weeks great. You are uncomfortable. But don't try and "start" your labor at 32 weeks.

While I get that it isn't all fun and game for pregnant women, it isn't exactly fun and games for us each week while at an appointment because we didn't "get" that far. Or emergency brain surgery because he came at 25 weeks and you are "just uncomfortable."

So, the last straw in that group came when a girl posted a photo of a little boy on a potty chair. It was obvious that he had a disability. He had braces on his legs, he had to be "strapped" to the chair for him to sit properly. Anyway she made fun of it. I got defense. A few weeks or a month or whatever later the group was deleted.

A few of shoots of the group were made. One was "Secret" and it wasn't kept very much of a secret. I deleted my myspace.

Facebook was a better option for me and I liked it. I had a few people that weren't invited to the "Secret" group and we were still friends. Well, silly me added one of the girls not knowing she was part of the "Secret" group and we have been chatting off and on. She also is from Arizona and we have a in real life friend. So I, being stupid, started to trust this girl.

Though I didn't trust her with my life or whatever. She did take my blog links and blog posts back to her group. And that is when you get the pretty anonymous comments left a few weeks ago. One even refers to herself as a "former" momoz member. She is mean and rude and a not nice person. ( The reason they all knew about my blog was because again a secret group was formed. Nice huh... Great Christlike women)

Yesterday I got an email from the Girl from Arizona. She basically told me I was not wanted any where and that the women in the group dislike me ALOT. She was not very nice and I was done having people come from HER blog here and leave mean comments. So instead of taking a long time to go private I went private with a HUGE list all ready made of viewers.

So there is the reason for the private. It will be public once again when I can find the best way to do it. Because I can't this Lovely girl to take my name off her blog I have to look at another alternative.

A lot of the random people who show up on my blog are from search words like "age of viability" or something to do with Ty's actual condition I would like it to be open. So here is to finding a better alternative than Mean ladies who should be Christlike!

Nancy it is so unfortunant that there are people in the world that never learned the lesson "if you can't say nothing nice don't say nothing at all" I to find it very hard to hear pregnant ladies complainof the discomforts and wanting to deliver early.

I'm so sorry. That was vicious and cruel of them. You are wonderful and you are wanted.

It's sad that people can be so mean and cruel. I totally understand about going private you have to do what you have to do what is best for your family.
Lots of hugs to you and ty .

that makes me sad.

We are all "SPECIAL" said...

It's so so so sad that this is where you have had to go. You know, seriously don't these mean people have anything better to do with their lives? It really breaks my heart the way they have treated you for no real reason either! You did not provoke the way they treated you!
Who cares if they don't like you. I don't like them!! And if I knew where they lived or who they were I would SO "take care of them"!!! ;)

I've tried to block that group out of my memory, so I don't remember all that happened, but I do know I left for a reason!

Unfortunately I already knew a lot of that, but you gotta spill. Who's the girl? I think I know, but I don't want to presume. Those nasty comments on your blog are just completely uncalled for. If she doesn't like you, great, she should just stay away from you for crying out loud, not make your life horrible. What a lame, piece of crap.

It is so sad that moms can't show each other some support. You think that high school was for cliques, but obviously it is not. There are still mean girls out there who need to feel better by putting down others. You don't need that on top of all that you must do in daily life.

I am glad you are still here. People are just mean and crazy.
Your blog has brought me great joy and can't imagine not reading your words or seeing Ty. Spencer and I see it together and Ty is still "pretty baby" to Spencer.

Nancy, I think you are a great mother... and you try to do your best! I'm surprised you stayed public as long as you did. I like that your blog is real, and you call things like they are.
