I woke up earlier than normal today but the rest of the family was still sound asleep. So what was I to do? I didn’t have any sewing to finish and I didn’t feel like starting something new so I did the next best thing – got onto FB and mucked around abit. While I was there, I decided that I had far too many friends on my list and that some axing was in dire need and began axing people off. I think I’d like things to be closer to home, if you know what I mean.

The first round I got rid of people I actually didn’t like but still added them anyway, but still there were too many. It was like I went from 460 to 420, then 378 and FINALLY, I am at 267 I think. So yes, it was a major axing exercise and as much as I hated to do it. I had too. My intentions when I first joined FB was to hook up with old friends and to catch up. I was never looking for new friends in the first place. And when I was at 460 friends, I actually knew every single one of them and it was VERY tough for me to axe out those I felt that I didn’t connect with or didn’t feel as if it would make a difference if one of us dropped off the list.

In fact, I really do hope none of the axed ones feel any sort of rejection. I mean, I dont think it would be as bad as the one I went through recently. I mean, I did spend a couple of days brooding over it but it wasn’t as if I needed any sleeping pills though. It was just that thought kept coming up over and over again. I mean, I’m sure that rejection in any form would hurt, you know? I didn’t want to message them and let them know. If they notice that they are not on my list and message me to find out, I’ll tell them or maybe I’ll just ignore it. I’m afraid if I try to explain as what happened to be, the person on the other hand may take it wrongly. But I’m not going to worry about that at the moment, I’m just savoring the fact that I actually sucessfully pulled it off although I found it very tough!

Funny how tough it was in the beginning but by the time I was in round 3 trying to decide who stays and who doesn’t it became so easy! Guess I was just pretending that I was firing people. lol Anyway, I do feel a tad relief that no one has complained just yet. Would like to know if anyone even bothered that I axed them off…..
