I’m one of those people who can work themselves into a headache over stress. I’m doing my best right now to let something wash over my back. I was castigated today by someone over something that really was not a big deal. This person went off on me and, although I took some of the blame and tried to do as she asked, she continued to berate me and send me incredibly rude emails. I finally just started hitting the delete key. I could not believe the diatribe. AND yes, I responded to her in the same tone she took with me. Bad, I know, but there’s only so much I can (or will) take.
I plan to never interact with this person again. I don’t have to and I won’t subject myself to her venom. She accused me of being passive/aggressive and if she reads this post, I’m sure she’ll think this is another incidence of that. But anyone who really knows me, knows I don’t need to be passive/aggressive. I make no bones about what bothers me and if that makes me aggressive, so be it. I just refuse to be walked on.
Anyway, I have to quit thinking about it. She’s not worth getting myself into a state over. Truly. She’s not.

Just let it roll off. Don’t let it disrupt the Muse

Yep, don’t deserve that. Time to move on. Good news! I managed to get the new site up. Your book is on my TBR Goodreads shelf displayed proudly in the sidebar. 🙂
